Boss & Homer
Boss
Hey Homer, have you ever thought about turning your love of donuts and family gatherings into a business? Maybe we could build a line of ready‑to‑heat snack packs that keep the kitchen mess to a minimum. What do you think?
Homer
Donuts, huh? I love a good donut, but the kitchen's already a mess from the living room pizza parties. Ready‑to‑heat packs sound cool if it saves me from the sticky mess, and the family would probably giggle more than I would worry about the numbers. Let's give it a try and see if the laughs outweigh the paperwork.
Boss
Got it, Homer. You’ve nailed the concept, now we need a plan. Draft a prototype and a rough budget by next Friday, then we’ll run a quick test. Focus on execution, not on over‑thinking the numbers. Let’s see if the laughs come first, and the paperwork will follow.
Homer
Sure thing! I’ll whip up a tasty prototype by Friday—maybe a doughnut‑in‑a‑cup or a mini family‑feast packet. I’ll jot down a rough budget, just a ball‑park so we’re ready for the taste test. Laughs first, numbers later, right? Let's make the family smile before we get stuck in paperwork!
Boss
Great, Homer, that’s the drive I like. Stick to a clear timeline: prototype Friday, budget in the next 48 hours, then a taste test. Make sure the pack is convenient and looks good—presentation matters. When we get the results, we’ll move straight to the numbers and scale. Keep it simple and fast. Let's show them the flavor first, the profit later.
Homer
Sounds good! I’ll have the prototype ready by Friday, budget done in the next two days, and the taste test set up. I’ll make sure the pack looks as good as it tastes—easy to open, no sticky mess. Once we get the laughs and the taste test done, we’ll jump straight to the numbers. Easy and fast, just like we planned!
Boss
Good to hear, Homer. Keep the momentum going—no procrastination. Let me know the results, and we’ll move straight to scaling. Don’t let the paperwork slow you down; that’s for when the product is ready to hit shelves. Keep it fast, keep it sharp.
Homer
Got it, boss! I’m on it—no procrastination, just donuts and donuts. I’ll keep the momentum going, and I’ll give you the scoop when I’ve got the prototype, the budget, and the taste test results. Once the taste test gives the thumbs up, we’ll jump straight to scaling. No paperwork slowing us down. Quick, sharp, and delicious!
