New Adventures!

With the almost certain collapse of the "around the world 3 year cruise" I decided to take our business model and expand it and start marketing it to other companies.

I feel that all dive trips both local and international can fall under this new devision keeping it separate from retail sales and the land based scuba diving center.

One thing I have learned is that you have to keep reinventing yourself. If you stay stationary in business you will die.

Some of the ideas have been good and some well let's just say not ideal. A lot of it is simply time. Having the time to be able to follow through and do things. Having the cash to be able to achieve the goals is always an issue.

Come Mid-December the buildout/construction on expanding the store will take place. I for one cannot wait to have it done and have some room to move about and do things. The expansion will give us another 1000sqft. More than enough for what we need right now and to allow us to expand with.

I believe that the T-shirt and Coffee Mug printing is still a great idea. With the addition of the automatic presses it eliminates and heck of a lot of printing errors. No more over heating or heat press lines. The T-shirt of the month I feel is still a great idea. By keeping them reasonably priced people will keep buying them.

I was asked what about the video streaming idea. It is a good idea. All the equipment is in place and ready to be put to use.

The plan there is by Summer 24 the cameras will be replaced and we will be able to finally get it off the ground. I think it will be not only a marketing tool but quite possibly a revenue generator.

It's early morning. Most of the house is asleep. Well except for Pearl. She is busy playing with some papers and watching lizards out the window. But this is usually when I get the most of my creative work done. I guess it goes back to my production days.
