Thanks everybody! I'm still small but the growth is definitely noticeable. There's been a lot of cool things happening lately both locally and at large. Thanks again for all of your support. It all started here!

This is a horrible group.:argh: First I get addicted to cigars, then my wife sees Black Dog Coffee while looking over my shoulder. Now we are a Black Dog Coffee house. Like I didn't have enough vices already! Seriously, GREAT coffee Brian. French press is the way to go. Your coffee is THE BEST! :hearteyes Congrats!!:applause:

Congrats Brian! Hope you grow bigger, faster and can become devoted to it full-time! Then you can bring newer coffees to us faster!

Just the beginning my friend. Remember us all in the friends and family round when you go public.

Hmmm may have to joing th monthly club... that way I don't run out... I go thru a 1 half lb. in about 10-12 days... what about the rest of you?

[tobby4]

I will indeed!
Some cool things of note recently:

Jan. 07 - highest full month volume of web orders yet
Feb. 07 - only a few web orders behind Jan in the first 10 days of the month. Nearly 1/3 of the BDC mugs sold in the first day they were offered. Picking up quite a few local coffee orders through people talking about me on their online community/hoa bulletin boards. Have had multiple local deliveries every single day for the past couple weeks. Local developer/commercial real estate people are calling and asking if I'd like to lease space for a shop in their new shopping centers.

I'm being interviewed next weekend by the Quad-State Business Journal. I think it's just a paper where business's pat each other on the back, but it means I'm getting noticed. I'll take it!

Cool stuff!
