Artisan Spirit Magazine feature: Avoiding the slow death
December 18, 2017
“One of the biggest mistakes distillery owners make is that they didn’t fully plan before they began.”
This article, recently published in Artisan Spirits Magazine and written by our managing director, Scott Schiller, is the first in a series of four to provide insight into how to prepare your distillery for success and avoid the downward spiral towards failure.
FOUR COMMON ROOT CAUSES OF FAILING DISTILLERIES ARE:
- Being underfunded from the start
- Weaknesses in product offering
- Poor distributor relationships
- Deficiencies in human capital
You can avoid these pitfalls by planning realistically. Proper planning starts with a financial forecast and operating model.
