I’m really terrible at asking for help, even worse; I really
excel at failing when it comes to taking the time to say “thank you” via the
internet machine for someone going above and beyond their job description. Today I was given the seeds of inspiration to
plant something that would sprout and help another individual.
Recently I founded a small business and I’ve been searching
for a copacker business to work with.
For months I’ve been discussing my business model with copackers on the
east coast, flying to visit copacking businesses in California…and through this journey I received
only one positive noteworthy experience.
This encounter was with the owner of Colorado Mountain Jam named “Brian.”
He is an incredibly knowledgeable,
helpful, patient, and overall great fucking guy. Today (4/19/15)…he took my call on his
personal cell phone during a Sunday afternoon.
That’s right, Sunday!
I had planned on leaving a cordial voicemail; but instead he
took my call and gave over 30 minutes of his time to offer a unique level of
expertise that I had yet to receive during my entrepreneurial adventure.
Near as I know, I’ve never tried his products or anything
that has been produced by his facility. However,
the next time I’m at a cattle call grocery store, his products will win over
all competitors. If anyone deserves my
dollars it is this gentleman and his company.
They support quality ingredients, local business, and encourage new
ideas.
