    Millions of Pounds of Cookie Dough and Still Only One Employee

    You’ve probably seen Sara post about how she’s obsessed with eating a specific brand of cookie dough. Today the founder and CEO of Doughy, Kelly Ramey, joins Oversubscribed to talk about her creation. The clean, six-ingredient cookie dough sold out at Erewhon within days of launch and you can now find Doughy in Whole Foods, Target, and Costco nationwide. Millions of pounds of cookie dough are sold each year but here’s the incredible part: Kelly is still the only full-time employee. We get into how scrappy events and a manufacturing background prepared her for the chaos of building a food brand, why hundreds of failed recipes led her to cashews as the base ingredient, and the surprising origin story of the chocolate chip cookie itself. Kelly walks us through sourcing cashews from a farmer in Mozambique and maple syrup from Vermont, why she still hands out samples herself, and what it actually took to land the product in 2,300 stores nationwide. If you've ever wondered what it means to "bleed" for your company, this is it. // MORE FROM DOUGHY // You can purchase Doughy at eatdoughy.com or at Whole Food, Target, Erewhon, and Costco.

    Is Romance Dead? 30 Million People Think Otherwise

    There are 30 million romance readers in the United States and 50% of them read a book a day—but romance has often been overlooked in publishing. Claire Mazur and Erica Cerulo, co-founders of 831 Stories, met as college students at the University of Chicago and are now on a mission to build the Marvel of romance.   In this episode they speak with Sara and Phil, who invested in their vision, about building a subscription model, growing community events, and signing a “First Look” deal with Hulu. They also get candid about the work required to run a business with your best friend, how they've learned to ignore bad investor advice, and why books are just the beginning.   Watch this episode on YouTube.   // MORE FROM 831 STORIES //   Learn more about 831 Stories and purchase their books by heading to 831stories.com.
