The course starts with defining the purpose of the business and keeping the first product categories focused. Its professional planning section adds a review of the local customer base, competition, supplier access and the business’s strengths and limitations.

Use those observations to shape the menu and positioning rather than assuming every nearby customer wants the same thing.
