Business Plan

Initial Funding: up to $300 Target Sales: $200 - $300

• Make it.
  • Buy sufficient raw mate
    • for 50L ~ 100 bottles
      • Assuming 500ml bottles
      • We could also use 333ml bottles
  • Brew it (Morten: "Sounds fun. I'm in")
    • Will we need a vat?

(Morten: If necessary use my 15L pots and make several batches.)

• • • • Do we have a vat?
      • Can a metal worker at sudo make us a vat
  • Spice it if necessary
    • Following this makerzine guide[4] maybe
    • Or allow adventurous sudoer to blaze trail

Noise bridge already made something called "Sudo Pop", which is up our alley. [1]

• • Carbonate it
    • Bobby, David Wild's roommate does this
      • Ask him nicely
      • Pay him
    • Buy a soda-stream

(Morten: "I think this would be very expensive. Might be possible to use a real "carbonater" thing, I know Tom's dad has one.")

Eric the metal Worker has one I just found out Maximilianklein (talk) 22:02, 7 April 2013 (PDT)

• • Transport it too bottler
• Bottle It. (Morten can totally be responsible for this)
  • Use as many recycled bottles as possible
    • Put call out for more bottles
      • Pay a homeless person worst comes to worse
  • Use the sudo capping machine
    • I believe its in the closet
  • Labelling
    • Rock paper scissors can do this
  • Transport it to storage
• Store it
  • We might be able to use the sudo closet
    • Does it require refrigerated storage?
    • Do we have a refrigerator
      • Find one or many on CL Free
• Sell it.
  • Target price $2-3/bottle depending on investment figures
  • Always at sudo, but also at specialized events
  • At Oakland Nights live
  • At an events night fundraiser
    • Sober
      • Games tournament
      • Debate
      • Hackathon
    • Mix it with alcohol
      • At a sudorave.
      • One of the planned Movie Nights
  • At art murmur.
  • Update: Noisebridgde have pledged to buy 48 bottles per week if we get this going.
