Wow! 🥹 I am absolutely blown away by my amazing circle of people. The amount of support and people reaching out to me during this trying period is just mind blowing to me. I don’t even know where to begin. 🩷
A lengthy post is to follow, but I want to explain what I have in mind. 🫶🏻
I want to start off by saying I, in no way, shape, or form, want anything from anybody. Many of you have suggested a GoFundMe and that is just not something that I believe in from a business standpoint. As a small business owner, I take pride in working for my community and putting in time and love for any sort of benefit from my business. The thought is super sweet, but I just can’t accept one. Others have mentioned KickStarter, which is a really really cool concept. I actually came up with some fun tiers that would give back more than what was given. I can stand by that, but the fees for that platform is very high. It does have me thinking of making some sort of “Founders Program” though for the drive-thru if it’s something you’d all be interested in and the give-backs would be in the form of drive-thru credit and other limited items and opportunities. I never thought of going this route, but many have suggested (almost demanded lol) that they want to help and this is what would make the most sense to me… so I can return the favor, plus some! 🫶🏻
Secondly, bottled lattes and cold brews are most definitely in the works! I love how much that was suggested and that makes me very excited to have the opportunity to keep making my fun drinks for you all even if it’s bottled! My husband is working away quickly this week to make this possible and I will get a pre-order system down for you all! 😍
Up next, I will be bringing back embroidery that can be shopped at the drive-thru during certain days and times! It won’t be much, but it will be a perfect window for bottled drink pickups! If you also want some cake pops, please let me know. We will be storing these in the freezer and can be added to your pickup. ☕️🫶🏻
I will also be really trying to expand the roasting side of everything! Wholesale businesses and restaurants, cold brew sales, and coffee subscriptions! I offer roasting to everyone and I would truly love to provide finished cold brew and beans for households, cafes, and small businesses that would love to offer coffee. Please reach out if this is something that interests you! I take pride in the quality of my products and my pricing is affordable for those small businesses looking to offer specialty, delicious coffee to their lineup of offerings. 🩷☕️
Lastly, I do want to also say that I read some suggestions on using electric from the shop to power the trailer. Unfortunately, my trailer requires two 50-amp plugs and VERY long cords to reach the shop. The building was a pizza shop prior and everything was ran by gas. There are zero 220-hookups or any other high-power option. The only wiring done so far is for your standard 120-voltage.
I’m sorry for the lengthy post, but I want to keep you all updated. I want to seriously thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the love, the words of encouragement, the support, the shares, and for constantly being there when I’m feeling knocked down. I LOVE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU! 🩷🩷
