Hey Profiteers! In this episode of 'Meet the Bakers' series, I interview Felicia Donaldson, the passionate founder of Barkmoor Bakery. Felicia shares her journey from cooking for her dogs to establishing her dog treat business in Colorado Springs, borrowing the name from the famous Broadmoor Hotel. Despite starting slow due to COVID, her business has seen growth through pop-up shows, events, and significant bulk orders. Felicia discusses the uniqueness of running a dog treat bakery alongside her first business, a dog grooming salon, and how networking with other dog businesses has been beneficial. She emphasizes the importance of human-grade ingredients and catering to pet parents' increasing health consciousness. Felicia also highlights Barkmoor Bakery's diverse treat options, including custom cakes and the popular 'Barkday Boxes.' The conversation touches on the roles of social media, Bakesy app for order management, and word-of-mouth in boosting her business. Challenges like last-minute orders and managing diverse responsibilities are mentioned, alongside the joy and fulfillment found in making dogs and their owners happy! Woof!  Kara
