STEP 1: Discovery

The Discovery Phase provides an opportunity for us to get to know one another.  It is a time ask questions, collect information, and educate each other.  The principal goals of the discovery phase are to:

  1. Create a clear vision of the business model that will be enacted
  2. Educate one another about goals and expectations
  3. Set shared goals and clarify vision
  4. Develop a project time frame and action plan

Overview

The Discovery Phase is generally intiated by the client with a phone call to our offices where time will be scheduled to meet in person or by phone to discuss project needs and opportunities.  Initial conversations may range from one hour to many hours depending on the scope of the project, client's understanding of canopy tours, and stage of business planning. 

A site visit is usually required to help layout the course and select the appropriate obstacles.  It is often recommended that prospective course owners visit several other successful canopy tours ahead of time to get a clear picture of the requirements and opportunities that abound.

The Discovery Phase culminates in the delivery of a conceptual proposal with a rough course layout and ballpark cost estimates for tour development.
