Five days. Three cities. One very tired water bottle.
Here’s what the road actually looked like:
3 cities — San Francisco, Denver, Pueblo
6 objectives — investors, buyers, founders, collabs, showcasing the product, and a test run at our new co-packer
375 pancake samples tasted
28 stores interested, adding up to 300+ doors
2 batches made at our new co-packer
23 samples home (I was ruthless about this)
14 new brand stickers earned
~45 friends I hadn’t hugged in far too long
3 real phone calls with my boys
1 sound bath
0 sleep debt — and that might be the number I’m proudest of
The 28 stores are conversations, not contracts. That distinction matters, and the follow-up that starts this week is where they either become real or they don’t.
But I got to stand behind our pouches and watch people taste ready-to-pour batter for the first time. That face — every single time — is the fastest product research I know of.
Mahalo to Startup CPG for building the room where half of this happened, to for showing up for us on the floor, and to the teams at wholefoodsmarket, Sprouts Farmers Market and Raley's for the time and the straight feedback. And to every founder who traded notes in a hotel lobby at 11pm — you’re the reason this is survivable.
Still counting one number: whatever the toll bill comes to for every road I drove without a pass. Worth it.
Mornings filled with aloha 🤙
