Free Stuff
Feb 27th
We’ve started adding a batch of free items to the site. For right now, we have a spreadsheet to help calculate startup costs, a link to Lloyd’s column on RPG.net and a mention of the Product Guidance Council, a useful tool for game manufacturers. More material will be going up in the free section soon.
Games only

Lloyd Writes is changing. Because we receive so many requests for gaming-industry plans compared to other types of plans, we’ve chosen to focus solely on those plans. This change will enable us to reduce our research time for each plan, reducing turn-around time and allowing us to shave our rates. While each business model is unique, the industry information is largely the same in each case. We can also fine-tune our financial spreadsheets based on actual costs reported by stores who have opened up thanks to our plans. In all of these cases, the client benefits by receiving more accurate information more quickly and at a lesser rate.
