A Glacier Update


I realized I haven't given much of a Glacier update in awhile. We've been in business 8 months! That's crazy. These first 8 months have really gone well, and I give credit to God's undeserved favor, my competent husband's hard work and the great product and location.

We're now coming to the end of the winter season. Getting through your first year and your first winter as an ice cream shop are definitely some of the hardest times. But, we have made our sales goals every single month thus far! We are also on track to make the amount that the average established ice cream store makes in a year. That's incredible for our first year in business!

Mike's also been making some great strides in wholesale accounts, too, which can really help your bottom line. Besides our store, here are the places currently serving Glacier ice cream:

He's talking to a couple others and always working to get more accounts. All this while learning more every day about running a business. Go, Mikey!

I can't tell you how excited I am for you and proud I am of both you and Mike! It is is just awesome how well ya'll are doing and how famous you have become! I think it is really neat that you won best ice cream in Colo. Springs in your first year. Mike, this is what you were born for, evidentially!! Spell check says that is not a word....but, you were made for ice cream, Mike! We love you guys and hurrah to you!

I always love the Glacier updates. I wish I were having some scooped for me to eat right now. Moab maybe? Very encouraging about all the wholesale accounts. Way to go Michael!

Totally awesome that sales are on track and you are branching out. God is good and you are blessed. Continued wishes for your success and hopefully the next time we come to the Springs for Compassion we will be able to stop by.
