Moody Brews - Small Town Woman in Business Success.
Moody Brews - Small Town Woman in Business Success.
Since there are no other coffee shops for at least another 50 miles, many truckers and travelers stop for her coffee between 5 a.m. and 8 a.m.
Soon 'Moody Brews' will include serving pastries from a local bakery and maybe even breakfast tacos along with her coffee, smoothies and pink steamed milk that the youth in the community like.
Judy's desire is to keep this coffee shop a single entity, so that her business remains simple and in the family — her sister works there too.
When asked what has been the greatest reward in setting her business she shares, "Getting to know so many different people, encouraging people to stop in the community as they drive through, and having the freedom to be able to close the shop to see my nephew in a school function."
Julie is often the first townsfolk a visitor will initially interact with, so she feels it's her responsibility to encourage them to visit other local business.
Steps that Julie took to starting her business
Julie picked the right profitable business. What is one of the easiest products to sell to out of town visitors after hours of driving? Coffee and smoothies, caffeine or sugar, to help wake them up as they continue their road journey.
Location, Location, Location.
Julie had her husband construct her drive thru building right off the main Highway 97 that passes right through town. Drivers can easily spot 'Moody Brews' as they turn the corner. She doesn't have to advertise. You can't miss her!
Keeping it simple.
No franchises of this brand are in the works. Julie hired her sister to help her and wants to keep the business simple and with low stress. She enjoys the freedom to close down when she wants to serve the community or spend time with her family.
Getting paid for doing what you're terrific at.
Julie loves meeting new people and being the town's representative to the tourists and truck drivers that pass through, while encouraging them to visit other local businesses. What better way to meet new people than to greet them with a good cup of coffee or a tangy smoothie after hours of being on the road?

Leanne Hoagland-SmithAre your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website |
