For Laurin, this is a dream come true...but this dream was full of obstacles...none of which stood in her way. Laurin was approved as a franchisee based on our belief in her steadfastness....it is with great fondness that I have the opportunity to conduct this interview...it is with honor that I stand in front of her on opening day.
Congratulations Laurin...you know who you are, and we love it!
Laurin,
ReplyDeleteYOU ROCK! Congrats! You'll do great.

Laurin - I got pretty choked up reading Bob's entry. "Those of us who travel further than the obstacles will know a different kind of life from that time on." Enjoy and celebrate this awesome accomplishment - I'm honored and proud to work with - and for - you.
ReplyDeleteLaurin - the same determination that got you to opening day will be the determination that will make you a GREAT owner!
ReplyDeleteProud to serve you and couldn't be happier for you!
Great doesn't even come close.... You are inspiration and proof that if you want it bad enough... You will do whatever it takes! I love what you have done and know you will only get better with time. Look out world... Her she comes! The bar has been raised on our standards! Congrats and good luck! See you Saturday with the entire Haworth clan! We can't wait! Cathy

Laurin -
ReplyDeleteYou're the best!! All of your hard work and determination paid off. BIGGBY COFFEE would be lucky to have more franchisees like you.
Congratulations!
Congratulations to my Big Sister!! Laurin, you have traveled a very long path and right now we could not be more PROUD OF YOU!! Russ, Meg and I really wish that we could have been there for your big day, but once we come back home..you can bet that we will make a bee line to your store, not only to get some Great Coffee, but to also get a supply of some Ground to take back to Oregon with us!!
ReplyDeleteWHOO HOO BIG SIS..YOU ROCK!!
Love always, Terri, Russ and Goobet
Well, it sounds like Opening Day was huuuuuuuge! That's great, and I guess no big surprise given the mob scene we had during the last two days of training week when we were giving away free drinks to give the trainees practice...boy did they get practice!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Laurin and Chris, you deserve it! -Jeremy
Bob St. Mary's Health Care (SMHC) and the Diocese are creating a green space mall across from SMHC in Grand Rapids. Small shops will be in the development across the street from SMHC. How about a Biggby Coffee? I am a great fan of Biggby and go there ALL the time. I work at SMHC and I was hoping this might be a good location for another store for you.
ReplyDeletesmhc, I'll pass it on to Sandy Green (real estate guru) and the GR operators...thanks!
ReplyDeleteLaurin-
