Goals
Here are a proposed set of goals for the 1.0 (Beta) release. Some of these goals are motivated by Champion Building: How to successfully adopt a developer tool. Although this blog post focuses on how to get developers in an organization to adopt a new tool, the recommendation seem very applicable to getting gardeners in a community to adopt GGC.
1. Provide a fast, reliable, robust app that satisfies the Core Value Propositions​
-By the end of the 1.0 release period, we need to have an app that satisfies the Core Value Propositions while being fast, easy to use, and not prone to crashing.

Roadmap
This roadmap documents our plans for incremental development and release of our technology, with the goal of revenue starting in 2026. While this pace seems glacial, note that we are bootstrapping this technology ourselves without any external investment and with no paid staff. This approach gives us the benefit of being able to delay requiring users to pay for the technology until we have documentation that our technology provides proven benefits.
-Dates | Subproject | Goal |
---|---|---|
2021 - 2022 | Mockup Development | Design and implement an executable mockup to illustrate design innovations. |
Mockup Evaluation (Customers) | Evaluate the business concept through interviews with experienced gardeners. | |
Mockup Evaluation (Entrepreneurs) | Evaluate the business concept through interviews with entrepreneurs. | |
2023 | 1.0 (Beta) release development | Build a mobile application implementing the Core Value Propositions. |
2024 | 1.0 (Beta) release evaluation | Evaluate the ability of GGC to fulfill its Goals. |
2.0 (Public) release development | Build 2.0 release incorporating improvements identified through Beta release evaluation. | |
2025 | 2.0 (Public) release evaluation | Gather evidence for GGC business viability through deployment and evaluation the 2.0 (public) release. During 2025, we will market GGC to Whatcom County gardeners. The 2.0 release will allow gardeners from any geographic region to sign up, but we do not intend to explicitly market the app anywhere outside of Whatcom County. By the end of 2025, the business viability of GGC will be evaluated based on the size of the Whatcom County chapter, and the presence and/or size of any other Chapters. |
