As we scale the Timeraiser, we are super concerned about keeping costs as low as possible. One of our biggest expenses include:

• Renting tables & chairs + linens
• Printing posters on foam core

This exercise is meant to help us better understand the implications if we purchased our tables and chairs for all the Timeraiser events that happen in Ontario & Montreal. 

The spreadsheet below contains our assumptions & basic number crunching. If you want to pick-apart our assumptions & modelling, download the file here. If you have comments about the assumptions & modelling presented, please provide use the social feature below.

• What is the opportunity cost of the capital deployed to purchase these items? (Ryan Poissant)

• Have we properly scoped how much time to set-up/tear-down if we do this ourselves vs companies that do this for us? (Blake Connoy)
