What Does Your Set-up Project Plan Look Like?

Are you opening a dollar store? Then be sure that your start-up project plan is your master checklist for every step and action that will be taken to prepare and open your store. It also important to remember that none of these actions can be taken until a final lease has been signed, however.

As you are developing your project plan be sure that you include a timeline of completion for the actions. Since they will be listed in chronological order, your project plan timeline becomes your store completion and grand opening event timeline as well.

Be sure that you monitor the status of each and every action on a daily basis. If something is due to be completed, be sure that it is completed at the designed date and time. That is one of the critical steps to opening a dollar store as planned.

If you are opening a dollar store never hesitate to follow up with vendors, contractors, and others to make sure that they are on track and will be completing their designated action item as expected. By following up as a part of your daily and weekly routine, you will have advanced notice if there is going to be a late delivery, or if there are other problems that need to be addressed.

Be sure that you hold every supplier accountable for delivering as planned. Having merchandise arrive even one day late can delay the final grand opening date if you are opening a dollar store. There will also be employees and others to reschedule if this happens.

By using your start-up project plan as your master plan and timeline for preparing and opening a dollar store you greatly increase the odds for a successful grand opening that happens on the targeted date. Give it a try!

To Your Dollar Store Success!
