I was on Dave Weatherholt’s radio show “Getting Down to Business” with the owners of a startup bakery recently and spoke with them about their journey from planning to pastries. Jerry Lewanski and Janis Fleischman opened Fire Island Rustic Bakeshop in Anchorage, AK. We discussed the benefits of word of mouth and public relations as an economical (and usually better!) alternative to traditional advertising, along with the different aspects a marketing plan should cover.
Jerry and Janis’ business planning skills are very impressive. They managed to plan for every scenario, except one… becoming an overnight success.
