Welcome to the Bo Tree Blog!

As we've traveled to different places, we've often dreamed of creating a unique business that builds upon the bookstore/café model by incorporating diverse elements for all ages: a greater range of dining experiences, indoor & outdoor theaters, educational opportunities, health and fitness practices, environmentally friendly products, and more.

It'll be 2019 before we can make this a reality so we're not as concerned with making realistic plans right now. Our focus now - and on this blog - is to incubate divergent and creative ideas with YOUR help.

So, we'd love for you to read a section at a time. They're organized along the right side of the screen & when selected, will appear below this introduction (you'll have to scroll down). Then let us know what you think (good or bad) through the blog comments or by emailing us at botree@gmail.com .

Thanks!
Jason & Jennifer

The Way Ahead

The Way Ahead

We have no business education (yet) but here's our basic understanding of how to get from here to there...

Continue to actively seek out ideas from our experiences (especially as parents), from independent business owners, from entrepreneurs (especially "social entrepreneurs"), and from you!

Obtain some business education from self-study, mentorship, and formal education (using military Tuition Assistance)

Develop a business plan

Research/determine management practices

Obtain financing

Assembly/train initial team

Open for business!

Continue to improve and pass on what we learn to others!
