We're down to the FINAL HOURS before opening!

Welcome back to Building a Business From Scratch. Today my buddy Mike came down and we're running an assembly line trying to get these display cases built and into position.

And I've got a plan for them.

The cases are going to wrap around the back section of the game store and create a barrier between customers and the merchandise behind the counter. Once they're in place, I can finally start bringing in more of my inventory and filling that entire back section.

A few hours ago, I honestly wasn't sure we were going to make our Canada Day opening.

NOW IT LOOKS LIKE WE'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO DO IT!

This isn't the grand opening — that's coming later. This is our soft opening, where we can get the doors open, meet customers, figure out what works and start getting the business rolling.

Rosie's Filipino food store is coming together at the same time. The Filipino products have arrived and the shelves are filling up. Later tonight we'll be working on pricing everything and getting her side ready too.

We're exhausted.

There have been countless trips for supplies, cardboard runs, shelving to assemble, inventory to organize, security cameras to install and a million little jobs that you don't think about until you actually build a business from scratch.

But we're almost there.

Once everything is finished, the construction phase is OVER. Then it's about stocking shelves, talking to customers, playing games and actually running the business.

If you're new to this series, go back and watch the first episode and look at what this building looked like when we started.

The transformation is incredible.

Canada Day — HERE WE COME!
