GROWING PAINS…
Some of the issues with starting a business are the fluctuations that happen as things get rolling, and our business is no exception to this.
On the good side, we’ve got several new and exciting things coming soon that we just can’t wait to share with our customers and fans. On the “pains” side of things it’s looking like we are going to have to make another adjustment to the pricing for our coffees (yes, that means a bit of an increase). Last week I announced that I’ve revamped the pricing “structure” to eliminate the quantity discounts to level the pricing playing field for all customers. We intend to stick to this pricing structure rolling forward. And while we also strive to keep our prices as low as we can, after calculating costs of goods and the costs of our business it is apparent that we do need to adjust our prices.
Prices will be adjusted tomorrow, Wednesday February 27th, 2019 in the early AM. until then, you might wsnt to take advantage of the current prices! All orders placed prior to the price adjustment will be at the current (lower) prices.
As stated above, we are committed to keeping our prices as low as we can for our customers. So, even though we will have to increase the prices we will still be lower than our local competitors by several percentage points. For example, our primary coffee, O.M.G.- Original, will be moving to $14 per pound… however our closest competitor is a full dollar more per pound for their lowest priced coffee. And another local roaster is TWO dollars more (the sell their lowest priced coffee in 12 oz packages for $12 which works out to $16 per pound). In both cases we are still priced lower than our local competition (small batch coffee roasters).
We hope you’ll understand this adjustment and will continue to support Bart’s Crazy Good Coffee as we get our business up and “rockin and rollin”.
Thanks,Bart
