“Really force myself to see it as soon as I should have. And I think that the other thing was prioritization. You know, what I said earlier about what you don't do is often more important than what you do. And that really helped us turn the tide in the challenges of Zoe's is when I finally figured that out and we simplified and focused and did fewer things a lot better. And that helped us get out of the challenging situation we were in. And then again, bringing in people with the capabilities that were needed at that stage of the business because you can't do it yourself. And being able to find people and bring in that you can lean on and that can be a force multiplier of you really helped us get to where we are today.”

“Tell me this is a question that I'm asking a lot of founders who come back on the show, which we may have touched on when you were originally on the show. But knowing now what you know about the world you're in, and you talked earlier about the stress of expanding, you know, when you guys acquired Zoe's, what do you wish you knew when you first got into this business that would have been helpful for you and maybe caused a few fewer sleepless nights?”

“That can bring that experience to you and not have the necessarily the commitment on your end. And sometimes those folks go into full-time roles if they find an opportunity that they really hit it off with a founder or entrepreneur with. And it also gives you a chance to leverage their experience and leverage in a bit of an asset-light way.”

“Routine because it operates very differently than our restaurants do. And that whole distribution channel. So I think it's trying to, we like to try and do fewer things better. It's hard. It's hard to pick and choose. But having that focus helped us have the energy to really make it what it is today. And other things I see a lot of small companies leverage is there's more and more folks who used to be executives at private or public companies that have gone on to become now fractional CFOs or fractional COOs.”

“Well, yeah, I mean, if you think about it, the channels operate very differently, right? Dealing with grocery stores or wholesale distributors is a different channel and value chain than a retail shop and different than DTC. So you would often need different capabilities, which would then be something that you'd have to hire more people for, right? So I think if you're trying to stay nimble and agile at a small stage and be cost effective and capital efficient, hiring folks that can do everything you need in the channel you're trying to grow is how we thought about it and how we looked at it. And even today, you know, we opened our new production facility. So we have capacity now to get more intentional about growing the consumer packaged goods business. But we've talked about if we're going to do that, we need to really hire a focused dedicated team that's fully integrated with our large”

“I mean, my advice to you also would be, and you may have done this already, but to think about finding a consultant on just a short-term basis, that's how these guys found Brett, right? And it was serendipitous because it was like Ted's cousin said, hey, this guy Brett, and he came as a consultant. So I wouldn't jump in and just hire somebody right away. I'd look for somebody who could maybe do some consulting. I would look out, especially because you're in the Midwest. I would really look for somebody who has experience in the food and beverage industry in the Midwest, who understands what your values are, where you come from, how you think about what you're trying to do. I mean, maybe there are some retired executives who are on LinkedIn, who might be willing to do some consulting for you that you could find.”

“I like to say scaling restaurants is not like scaling SaaS software. It takes people. It takes process. It's building physical restaurants. You're building physical roasteries. So that takes capital and it's hard to scale these things. So being able to afford the capabilities, the talent, the infrastructure before the business necessarily affords it for you through your profits allows you to scale faster and grow faster and do it sustainably and successfully.”

“Understanding of what we were going to do with this capital and connect those dots clearly to the return. Because ultimately when you're raising money from investors, we're ultimately stewards of their capital. We're good stewards of capital. We'll continue to attract capital, but that allows us to do what we love to do, right? And build our brand and bring this great food to folks across the country. So how are you going to do that? How are you going to focus that? And, you know, I think it goes back to the question I posed to you earlier. What do you want to be when you grow up, right? What pace do you want to grow at? And that's going to determine how much money you raise because.”

“Think there's a lot of interesting parallels here. I love your vertical integration. We have our dips and spreads production facilities to supply our restaurants as well as we sell in Whole Foods markets and other grocery stores across the country. You've got your roastery and you're leveraging it through a few different channels. And one of the things we quickly realized early on is that we were going to focus raising capital to grow the restaurant channel. And we've kept the consumer packaged goods channel growing slowly, but we've focused our efforts on the restaurants because we found it very challenging to grow multiple channels at once. And so we tried to lean into where we thought the greatest opportunity was to bring this food to people across the country. And I think it also presented a clear story for investors. It gave them a clear”

“And you can get it fast, but you're not sacrificing that quality to do so. And that's like my big, big dream. I've really been like, hey, how do we get there?

It's really a matter of like we need the revenue to fund things in order for me to be able to kind of put off like, all right, wholesale is now managed by this person, et cetera, et cetera.”

That one, you mentioned that bag, a damn fine cup of coffee, is like an owl's head on a person with wearing a business suit at a cafe drinking a cup of coffee with a slice of cherry pie, a really, really cool artwork. And so the entry point to you for people, you knew that you were making good coffee, but it's hard to kind of distinguish good coffee because some people don't really know, you know, and they don't really know what to look for.

“Just going to say, I love partnering with the allergen-friendly food brands, and especially when you think about social collaborations and giveaways for the back to school season to help amplify what you're doing and be a trusted partner because that is your target customer. They are already an allergen purchaser, an allergen-free friendly purchaser. And it's almost, again, like a validation. A friendly referral that you can partner with them. And whether it's through influencers, creators, or the brands themselves, I think those are powerful channels to help amplify. With an audience that already has that built-in passion for what you're doing.”

“100%. Yeah, I mean, with kids, there's all kinds of rules on how you can market to them in the world. That's a great channel to think about too. But there are millions of podcasts out there. And I think that you start with take a page out of Tim Ferriss's world. You start with a thousand people, a tribe. You build a tribe of a thousand people that you can gather around your brand, and those become your force multipliers. And so maybe it's like, I think about my sister who's a kid with really deathly peanut allergies, now a grown man. She was constantly vigilant. I mean, before they went to a restaurant, she would call up to make it within airplanes. She would call up to make sure they wouldn't serve peanuts on the plane. So, this is the kind of thing that somebody like my sister, when our kids were younger, would have said to other moms.”

I think that would be really awesome. And even though allergies are everywhere and it's become some mainstream in a way, there's still kind of be nice to add a Whole Foods to have an allergy friendly section. I think I still have yet to see things like that but would love to be a part of that.”

“I think often in any of these industries, going to a trade show is such a great idea and just understanding the landscape, the lay of the land, what the marketplace is. What the potential avenues of distribution are, how it all works. I remember when I was working with my wife on a snack food company, we would do that. We'd go to the trade shows and it helped us really understand the industry and how it all worked and where our product or offering could fit within that.”

“Yeah, that was going back to kind of my original question about instinctively were there any kind of bricks and mortar places that you thought about going because certainly what we've seen post pandemic, the cost of acquisition or just awareness on the internet or being a DTC brand has gotten really expensive. And people have gotten back out in the world. And even with the changes in third-party data, privacy laws, it's restricted the ability to drive awareness online solely. So where are there potential bricks and mortar outlets that you can be in front of where your consumer, your parent that has a child with allergen issues or maybe having them themselves are trafficking and where's that need state happening, whether it's target, whether it's a gift shop.”

This is something that affects a significant percentage of the population, one or more allergies. I don't know the number. You might, but a lot of people. So this is not a niche thing. It's not like a lot of kids have peanut allergies very common. I feel like there's a world, and I'd be curious if Sophia was looking to...”

“You know, I honestly was just Google and it would bring me not a ton of companies that provided allergy accessories. And if there were, it was very piecemeal. There's lots of also like Etsy makers that do kind of one-off things. It could be a sticker or a patch, but not a full kit or collection. And my goal was to really create something where a parent can come into the website and say, okay, I need all of these things for school rather than kind of figuring it out on their own, which I had to do. But again, you know, in my search, everything that I found was just really cold and clinical and just felt almost like a, I don't know, like a badge of shame in a way. And it's hard enough, obviously, for kids to deal with having food allergies. I didn't want their accessories or their labels to make them feel. Othered in a way.”

And honestly, I didn't want her to leave the house after that. But I knew at some point I had to send her to preschool. So with her being so little and honestly still learning how to speak, I knew that I needed to find allergy accessories that would essentially advocate for her in my absence. So I searched everywhere for the right allergy accessories, but I honestly couldn't find anything that didn't feel cold or clinical.
