Starting From Scratch.....

This morning was truly like a blast from the past, getting up nice and early brewing some coffee and heading out to the strip. We arrived just after seven with the hopes of selling at least two cups of coffee goodness for our first day back. We realized that we are basically starting from scratch here and it will take time before we can reach the numbers we want.

Today we sold six cups in total and we are totally happy with that. Tomorrow will be even better, well, I hope it will, one guy told us that he was wondering where we went, another pulled out of heavy traffic and chilled with his coffee until the traffic had cleared up. If you ask me that guy was smart, traffic was heavy this morning.

The large cups are working out for us, only one person actually bought a small coffee. The large cup looks impressive and totally kicks the smaller cups ass. If I wanted a cup of coffee I would take the large, no doubt. Morningbru is set to take off and we are excited about so many things at the moment.

I am aching to get a espresso machine so that we can start making all the good stuff. Of course we do need a generator first before we can even think of espresso and that sort of thing, in time I am sure we will get there. Loyalty cards are in the works, so soon you will be able to buy five coffees and get your sixth one free. Once we reach twenty to thirty cups a day we will launch the loyalty card special.

We are back and we are ready to sell some coffee :)

Permit in hand - September O.C Cancelled :(

It was a hectic and busy day yesterday, lots of driving - a little road rage! (TAXI) and a permit acquired.

Yes people, you read that correctly, we are now fully legal to trade on the strip. Shirley Alexander was very helpful in the end and wished us well with the business.

Thank you Shirley, at times I wanted to come and blow up your offices out of frustration but patience has paid off and things are back on track.
The Vending Licence!

Apparently Shirley had a meeting with all the vendors on the strip to decide our fate and they had only good things to say, hence us getting approved for the permit.

So much politics o.O ---- but hey I'm not complaining anymore. Woohooo!


So if you don't know, that is what a vending licence looks like. I like the yellow edges. hehehe


The Elusive Permit



This is the permit.. It is only valid for six months before we have to renew it. But hey, at least we finally have it now. Good Lord we were losing hope. So there it is guys we are sorted and ready.

Stay tuned for our August O.C post!
Sadly the September O.C has been cancelled
:(  BEEEEG SAD MOUTH!

Gives us a month off to change our strategy a little I guess.
The O.C will be back in October and we will be there ready for business.

Have a great weekend guys.

One More Day.....

Tomorrow at 11 O'clock we will be going to see Shirley Alexander, hopefully all our things are in order and we can get our permit on the spot. Very excited, if all goes well we will be back on the strip this coming Monday. A post will be up after our meeting, we might even sneak in a few pics of the process.
 Permit happy face!

So much are in the works for Morningbru and we are feeling uber positive about the business. If you happen to be in the area please come by and support us by buying a fresh cuppa, we make good coffee ;)
