Developing

With
the Strategizing and Planning complete, the job is to make it so,
get it built and open for business. On time, on budget is anyone's
mantra during the construction and/or production phase. To say more
about these two criteria will mean less.
However,
throughout the physical manifestation of the
business, Strategic Leisure keeps the
following critical factors top of mind :
Entertainment
Is Art - Entertainment, of whatever nature is, in the end,
an art and must be directed. In the field art direction can save
millions in development costs, and make millions in operating revenue.
Over-directing, or directing too late, certainly have a huge negative
impact.
Carpe diem!
- Everyday a project is being built, is a day that it can be
marketed. Even during extended construction periods, each day is
an opportunity to prepare the market to receive the product.
Don't Toast
Before It's Time - Test & Adjust periods and soft openings
are investments, not cost centers. The premature presentation of
what, otherwise, is a great project can be deadly to projects, investments
and careers. Two weeks now can mean millions in perpetuity.
