The beta site is released

Today we released our beta site, a few luckey fans of The Fair Tailor have been given the chance to become one of The Fair Tailors first customers.

It was great to see that so many were interested in becoming one of the first customers. The beta site looks works quite well, but there are some things that need to be fixed before the launch.

It's going to be really interesting to see what kind of shirts the customers will be interested in, what their response to the web site will be.

Yesteday we took part in Språngbrädan, a process to gain access to a group of investors. There were a panel of eight and they had been given our business plan to review. We made a 12 minutes presentation of the company and our business idea.
They had both good and not so good feedback. It is always good to get a new perspective on things. We are working with this project day and night and that sometimes makes it difficult to take a step back and look at things from the outside.

Tailor made Fair Trade and ecological fine dress shirts via Internet

Our sample shirts are soon here!

I got a call from TNT today, the shirts Tirtha sent from Nepal are on the way here. On Friday we will know if they are good enough. I must say that it is quite exciting =)

This morning I had a meeting with an organisation called Connect Väst. The organisation is based on the same principles as used in the US, where the Connect program was started in San Diego.

Our plan is to get accepted in to a Connect Väst program called Språngbrädan.

During August and September we will work on our business plan together with their coaches. On September 15 we will make a presentation and 15 coaches from different branches of business will give feedback on our project. After having completed Språngbrädan we will also get access to their network of venture capitalists.
