Business Plan
Right now, I am mainly doing cutting boards, charcuterie boards & coasters but I would like to get into custom furniture as I gain more skill & experience. With-in 5 years I would like to be doing this full time and be making my living & supporting myself doing it. I want to get it to the point were it is successful enough to were I have to hire employees. I am someone who has worked hard his whole life for other people and their businesses. Over the last few months I have gotten a small taste of what it would be like to work for myself, and I love it. In my previous job I had 45 employees a fleet of 22 vehicles and was responsible for all aspects of the operation in my office. I was a very dedicated hard working employee and I know that if I put in the effort I did there into my own business I will succeed, I have no doubt of that. I am a practical humble person, I am not to proud to ask for help when I needed and financial help is something I am in need of right now.

Self Identified Competition
I don't know by name who my top competitors are, but they are the big businesses who masquerade as small independent woodworking shops that can mass produce 100's of cutting boards on the cheap in the time it takes me to do a few. I don't consider other small shops like mine competition. I consider them colleagues who I support. As a small shop I produce handmade quality boards.Boards that will last a life time if taken care of. The big businesses produce cheap boards that do not last very long. This is what they want, so the consumers have to constantly buy new ones.
