Made some progress with The Document last night. It is in nine parts, and I have now written parts 1, 2 and 3. Parts 4 and 5 should be fairly straightforward, with part 5 being the real substance of the document, laying down the principles and ethos of the new business. Part 6 will probably read “more research required”, as I don’t have sufficient knowledge to do that bit without getting some professional advice, but should include some vague ideas and my current gut feelings. Part 7 will be the all the numbers, and will probably also have a few blanks in it for now. Part 8 should be reasonably easy. Part 9 will be vague waffle (my favourite part!). All-in-all, I expect it to run to about 25 or 30 pages.
