Lessons learned from Black Arrow...
1. Do not promise anyone compensation specifics because whatever you offer now won't be good enough a week later. Wait until you're shipping to announce compensation specifics.
2. Expect refund requests, a lot of them. Especially if you're late.
3. Expect a lot of trolling.
and lastly...
4. Continue to communicate with your customers. This is most important. What you promised them was a failure. So now you need to shore up their confidence that you will do right by them.
Presentation over, there are snacks and coffee in the lobby. Thanks for coming.
