3 stores.
And I already got my first YES. 😭
Today I started walking into NYC stores with PowerCrème in hand.
Store #1 — Pop Up Grocer:
They told me to apply online.
Store #2 — Mulberry Market:
YES. 🥹
Store #3 — Happier Grocery:
They took my samples.
And I’m standing here thinking…
Wait.
This is actually happening.
For almost two years I was building the product.
Then I spent 39 days talking about getting here.
And now I’m actually walking through NYC carrying PowerCrème, asking stores to take a chance on it.
And somebody said YES.
I know one store is just one store.
But you have to understand what that first yes feels like after all the work it took to even get something in my hands to sell.
Three stores down.
Seven more to go today.
PowerCrème is officially out in the world.
It’s happening. 🥄
