Furlow and Hall is an interior decorating business. Specializing in high-quality handmade soft furnishings and a best spoke design service. The business uses a small number of highly skilled craftspeople to make its products using traditional techniques.
Mrs Tieback, who sews the curtains for Furlow and Hall, is retiring later this year. Her local council has discovered that she has a workshop at her home and has informed her she is liable for business rates. This will lead to increased costs and so it is no longer economically viable for her to continue working.

I feel like Exhibit A might be the best fit since it emphasizes the craftspeople, but I could be wrong. I need to double-check my notes!

I'm a bit confused about where to place her since she's retiring. Does that affect how we categorize her role in the model?

I remember a similar question about roles in a small business, and I think it was about identifying key positions. Maybe Exhibit C is the right one?

Ah, I've run into this before. Salesforce has some specific rules around usernames and email addresses that can trip you up if you're not familiar with them. I'll carefully consider each option and try to identify the most likely cause.

The user session running Manager being set to log all messages is an interesting possibility. I'll make sure to check that as well.

I hope Mrs Tieback can find a way to keep working, even with the increased business rates. Maybe she can start a GoFundMe to cover the costs - I'd be happy to chip in a few bucks for some handmade curtains!

I bet Mrs Tieback would be shown as a Freelancer or Consultant on the organizational model. She's not a full-time employee, but she's a skilled craftsperson who provides her services to Furlow and Hall on a contract basis.

Hmm, this one's tricky. I'm going to go with Exhibit C, which shows Mrs Tieback as an External Stakeholder. She's not officially part of the company, but her work is essential to their operations.
