jm1fd Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Wow...I must say...your web site is quite corporate looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcoole Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 Thank you! My husband is a graphic designer/web guy, so he's been trying to pull off the "corporate" look. But, we are not a franchise and we are locally owned. I mean, the bank pretty much owns us, but you get the drift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standeck Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Looks great in person too! If I commuted on 99 or lived a just a little closer (actually, it may be worth the drive), this would be my morning coffee and cup of fruity frozen yogurt with granola stop! Delicious!

kcoole Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 I would love to open more locations, but it's been a lot of work. Kind of like having a newborn, only 10X harder. Up all night, worried all the time... Maybe one day though! Yes, business is going well, especially the yogurt sales. I think it'll take a little longer to establish ourselves as a coffee shop (read: the mornings are pretty slow except for our regulars). But, once we do, we'll be right were we need to be. Katyresident - I would love to meet you this weekend. I just found out we are having Mary Sarah perform on Sunday at 5 PM. She's an amazing voice talent who lives right here in Richmond.

Talbot Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Congratulations! I will most definately stop by one day this week to support a local establishment, especially from a fellow Katy resident! And I will certainly spread the word. I can't wait to try it! Wish you luck.

citykid09 Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 That website looks so corporate, does the store look just as corporate? I hope yall expand quick and get up here to Bryan/College Station. The key to staying open is to keep the prices low! Don't try to over charge for a small bowl of frozen yogort, over charging is what slowed Starbucks down. If you can get your supplies at a discount, pass the savings on to the customer (take a look at the Wal-Mart business strategy). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VicMan Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 I'd like to try it too sometime - See if you can expand to the central Houston area - perhaps Montrose or West U would be a good location. With all of the new condo towers there will be demand for fruity flavors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
