Conservative	400	$110	$44,000	$150K
Moderate	800	$130	$104,000	$320K
Optimistic	1,500	$150	$225,000	$600K

Risks

3-week lead time risk: Customers may expect immediate fulfillment, mitigated by upfront expectation setting, optional wait discounts, and gradual stocking of best-sellers.

Showroom rent risk: Fixed monthly rent of $1K–$3K may strain cash flow, mitigated by starting in shared or pop-up spaces and targeting 20–30 monthly sales minimum.

Design selection risk: Incorrect initial design mix may underperform, mitigated by using supplier best-sellers, rotating monthly, and validating demand via sales data and surveys.

Influencer partnership risk: Influencer campaigns may underperform, mitigated by vetting engagement rates, starting with 100-unit tests, requiring deposits, and contractual promotion terms.

Shipping damage risk: Large framed items may break in transit, mitigated by reinforced packaging, shipment insurance, and holding 5–10% extra inventory.
