B Plan Done-For Now

Monday, October 9, 2006

We’ve
been working diligently on a business plan for pC to submit to the Rothschild Business Plan Competition and it's done-for now. This first submission is only for the preliminary round, and we sure hope we're moving on to the next one. Our wiki model showed its value here, and the many who helped with the plan will see the obvious signs of their handiwork. The overarching goal in this endeavor is for many voices to become a unified one, a noble goal for any musical ensemble, and now this ideal is being used towards governance, fund-raising, publicity and the endless other things we need to do to succeed as a musical entity. So thanks, and keep it coming. Now that the initial excitement has dissipated it's time to do the hard work, and I find that every conversation and e-mail from you all is a great infusion of energy and inspiration, so don't let up.

Some updates:

1. We've been talking with Mark about the project-in-residence designation from CGCC CAP on a consistent basis and we're hopeful that something will be worked out soon. In the meantime, we're going to go ahead and incorporate so the group that exists in our hearts and minds will exist in the eyes of the State of Florida.
2. We're looking at the weekends of Jan. 12, Mar. 16, and May 4 for concerts. We'll be working on venues this week and next.
3. We haven't gotten many responses for our slogan contest so it looks like Jim Stephenson is in the lead with "Miami's New Center for Visionary Music". Has a very Copernican ring to it, no?
