Well from Ionia I did dive into GR (it's only about 25 miles away) to check out the buzz from the newspaper article this morning...I stopped in several stores and had a chance to chat with a couple of operators, everybody was digging the positive vibe commin' out. We serve our customers everyday with a smile and now we had the opportunity to impress some new people, who on an average day, might not give us a shot....
I still have a few more thoughts on Ionia though....Luke is the one that made that beautiful drink....I had a chance to chat with MaryAnn before I left and she told me that he has taken a lot of pride in his work and he has been working on his 'caffe latte art'...let me just say again...thanks, it made my day!

MaryAnn and Doug were working the store....boy she is one fired up woman! I think she got five things done this morning before I had my first cup of coffee. She had even been to our home office in East Lansing, getting more mugs for her retail display.....I guess they been flying off the shelves there in Ionia. Before I blinked she ran to the back and got something else to show me, and then before I knew it she was dragging me to the back of the house to show me a chart on her cup counts for the month of Feb...

Well, I've bookmarked your blog...crazy. I've been hooked on Biggby's since my MSU days. I now live in GR and tell everyone about your Carmel Marvel's. I love Biggby's!
Yo Bob ... why isn't there a Biggby Coffee in Shiawassee County? I've got a great location for you ... Owosso. Baker College is there and there are a ton of coffee starved Owosso and Corunna ite's who would like nothing more than to spend there days hanging around the coffee shop, or grabbing a cup of best before heading to work.
Tiffany...Thanks!
