In the 10 days we have been open we have had people from all over the states and out of the country as far as Germany and Thailand. It's a unique specialty shop. Our average sale is around 50 bucks. We have had dozens of people posing for pictures in front of our store. I haven't seen any other stores with people taking pics in front of them. Beef jerky? Not even close. We had the most popular booth at the expo last night for local businesses at the Hyatt. Basswipe come to the shop and see what we are doing. As I did special order you some wood smoked peppered venison. The meat is over an inch thick!

That's an important metric to track...big business spends a lot of money looking at how to upsell even just a few percent.

Research was done before we made the move. And that's pretty much what was expected and falls in line. We aren't building rocket ships. Numbers are numbers. And when the hell can I expect to see you? I need to know a week in advanced as I have low ceilings.

" The meat is over an inch thick!"

Jay, Sounds like this should be sold as a "Bronko Special". You know how how much he loves meat over an inch thick to chew on.



Make America Great Again.
