Published: Dec. 19, 2019, 11 a.m.

In this episode, we follow up with the Deal from “Where do Dead Deals Go?”, and also talk about the timeline to going live with a business as discussed in the Build vs. Buy Episode. Using our two laundromats as examples, we take you through the timeline and expenses for opening a deal step-by-step, including architecture and engineering, following a ramping plan for the first year, and finally getting it to its income-generating stage. We talk about the causes of some delays in the process and how to anticipate and deal with them.
