But if you come ask me, my question to you John is, What are you think you should do? Which I took you to level three. I never look at it, I dont review it. So its interesting, my pastor had asked me a few years ago, do you struggle with pride? So we dont have cashiers. I know. I didnt have restaurant background but experiences that God took me through for those 30 years in the grocery business prepared me for the day when I had to go do something on my own. So it was really being driven by a multiple of the EBIDTA, or an earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. And now shes going to help other people. And then you also pick up your food. I knew a gentleman there who was looking for an opportunity. And we talk about it like we love it and thats how we describe it when were talking to our guests. I have a very simple leadership philosophy. By 2018, Johnson had grown Create & Cultivate to eight employees when an acquirer offered her a staggering $40 million. Shed been working in a salon, was let go from that job. They didnt know everything that I knew about, if were going to serve more communities, what that would look like. And we did that strategically, as that there are other people who kind of want to play in this space. have a Family Support Team that will guide you in the way to do things, but the store is. And so I sat there in these restaurants and I would count how many people came in every hour. Love it. Maple Street Biscuit Company was founded by Scott Moore and Gus Evans in Jacksonville, FL in 2012. The community came around in such a way we didnt need to. Theres two things I talk to the team about all the time is, what can go wrong, how good can we be? I wish about the eight hours they come to Maple Street to be the place where they can get some rest. Do you ever feel that way? We use a winter wheat artisan flour. And I currently had had 175 people on my team throughout the distributed organization. In this episode, Stephan Spencer details three strategies he pursued to withdraw from his businesss day-to-day operations. So we talk about grace and how we show grace to each other as team members. We make that as a very attractive schedule for somebody in this industry. Maple Street had created a durable competitive advantage because of its brand, which was defined by Moores careful choice of words. But she did say, theres another role were creating and you could post for that, raise your hand for that and if you get it, you can keep your compensation and which as an officer of a Fortune 100 company is fairly significant. Big companies buy smaller ones when they realize that it would cost too much, or take too long to compete or they see an opportunity for growth. For these folks, life can be tough. Adam Glickman started hawking Jumbo Brand Condoms from his dorm room in 1989 under the moniker a safe jumbo is a happy jumbo. His brand grew and upon graduation, hestarted Americas first retail condom shop in New York City. Ill get the sausage and cheese omelet, like potatoes, cup of coffee and Im good to go. But I dont want to have to worry when they come here. One is, if were just average, we just do what everybody as an average does, what would that look like based on our expected expenses for rent and insurance and all the things that would go into P&L. And then its all on the biscuit. We had 33 community stores and we only had 13 people on the whole family support team. Ill teach you how to run it. So I told my partner, I said, Were going to spend 35 thousand and were going to remodel it in eight weeks. And he knew that I am not a perfect person and that I have struggles. And we wanted to help them, as part of our mission. But when I go to peoples houses and I have dinner, I pick up my plates and I take them to the kitchen. And so thats our responsibility, was to go find a way to serve in more communities. But they basically have the same menu. And so many accolades came out there at ten. On top of that, we take an all natural chicken breast. And you have to carry it along. They invested at least $50,000 into building-out and equipping the first Maple Street restaurant that opened in November 2012 at 2004 San Marco Blvd., where it continues to operate. It was called Holler & Dash but when executives at Cracker Barrel saw the Strength of the Maple Street brand, they knew they could be better together. We did it because there are people who part Maple Street, community leaders, who had the potential to bring in more capital and wanted to do a chance to get more return. And they do a very detailed, thorough review of who we were, from the brand to the financials, the store economics, the opportunities and we both came to them and said, This is the right partnership.. We had the one store, the second store and now the third store. This is the casual dining restaurant, as opposed to the cheese brand thats owned by, I guess Kraft, right? But does that mean it was always easy for her to process? Every month it changes. And have resources Ive never had before to go do it. Its been, in Atlanta, Georgia, its The Varsity. But we ended up really being that wow P&L and earning the right to go do more. But I was so focused on what we were trying to do, I just didnt have time to sit down and worry about it, to be honest with you. Unfortunately, the deal was too good to be true. And its my job to protect the team. And some of those were depending to be a part of the conversation as well. But she was able to, with her belief that I wouldnt quit until we get it right, allow me to go sign up and do this and take that step. By 2010, he was able to take a six-month sabbatical which ultimately lead to a salein 2010 with onlya six-month earnout. They were in turnaround situations and struggling. Maple Street Biscuit Company. Because to me, theres thousands of counselors out there waiting to give you counsel and theyre in books.

If we had to only have one, itd be there. What Do You Need From The Sale Of Your Business? We taught her how to run a community store. Any restaurant will take your order. I have a video that every new team member watches, where I make a promise that this will be a safe place. Tears, some of them. Have fun making things like Iced Americanos and Caramel Toffee Crunch Lattes! I dont need to know that. But I want to have the right partner as well. If youre teachable but I cant trust you, we cant do anything. If somebody breaks trust, which can happen in different ways, which means not keeping my promises. That nobody will be cussing at them. And thats a lesson that my friend Scott Moore learned. As a community leader, you get to run your own Maple Street. So the best way to do is firewall it, just dont open. How do you come up with names for your dishes? And the reason that was, when we first started out, that church or that pastor I said challenged me didnt have a lead teaching pastor. And that were doing life together and helping each other along. And so theres at this point, a whole Maple Street dictionary of words that help us communicate what were trying to do. We had a, I guess, a pretty good reputation in this race. And so when we talk about gracious service, that includes our team members, our family members, that we treat each other with grace. If I can trust you and youre teachable, we can do a lot of things. Fortunately, Cracker Barrel looked at it and said, This is a very founder driven company and that we believe is mission critical. Because weve seen it happen before. We got 100 days in. Im going to teach you how to think the way that we think about things. And so we had made that decision but we didnt move on it because that takes significant resources, to hire, train and implement those leaders. We found that we decided a year ago, the best way to pay for it was to listen to our guests. Every year its been a different community store with a different community leader. Find the right partner to help us fund it. It was a long process but she now has her own community store. Here to tell you, Scott Moores story is Scott himself. He said he could look over the years and connect the dots. Words mean something. And one of the lessons I learned through that growth process, John, was you always have to focus on the business. So people have had biscuits and fried chicken. Yeah, I always have this phrase John would say, Make it easy to do right, hard to do wrong. When we built the model, I wanted to build it so that it was easy to execute against it. On October of that year, food and restaurant company Cracker Barrel acquired the Maple Street Biscuit Company in a generous $36 million deal. What you thought maybe a fair value might be for the business? In 2002 Chuck Crumpton started Medpoint to help businesses bring medical devices and pharmaceuticals to market. Immediately, change, its scary and the unknown. That was a critical piece. What I had to be clear with them is, this is not telling Scott what you need to go do. Maple Street Biscuits was founded in 2012 by Scott Moore and Gus Evans. And if I was going to be the CEO, I had to get myself ready. And I understand what those looked like. Its got a little sweet, a little bit of heat and its almost like a sweet and sour chicken biscuit.

We need a few more. Because what we wanted to do, is to get out and be the market leader. They liked what we had done. How many people did you have when Cracker Barrel bought the business? Was the desire to get out from underneath the personal debt in any way influential in your decision to sell? And so to get some of those locations required that I had to put my name to the line. And what we wanted, anybody else who was going to be interested in playing that space to look around and say, Hey, what just happened? So on our website, theres a section where they tell their story. Thats why you have an open kitchen. Or were they kind of locked into the Cracker Barrel conversation? And so we put in the plan that we were going to go from basically eight community stores to 25 community stores in an 18 month period across the Southeast of the United States. Level four is act and advise immediately. She had to ask her grandparents to take her daughter and take care of her because she couldnt afford to do it. Thats why we have ambassadors and not cashiers. I dont know what theyre doing every day, every week. I mean the Twitterfication of vocabulary, my kids now when they text, I cant understand it. Maybe I want a little lifestyle business. I said, Ill work with you for six months. And a lot of times, leaders think of people at least are at level two ask what to do, that theyll come ask me what to do, theyre taking some initiative and theyre good people and I teach my team, no. Whats the process look like? I gave him a hard time because theres been like eight or nine pastors or priests who have used the Maple Street as an illustration to talk about gracious service and is this illustration. So people that move up or they move down the levels, I filter everything through that. So its not all bad to have somebody who can have a conversation with you which can challenge your thoughts. We talk about gracious eyes. Youre about to cancel your subscription. Is that okay? They all said, No, people get it. And I think if supported by your actions, they have impact in peoples lives. No, thats where people misunderstand grace sometimes, John. However, Zorgdrager had a problem.

So when I say that its our mission to go help people, the first store was a gentleman I was going to church with and I was just going to set him up. You had this entrepreneurial experience. People that lean in get it. The second store, I put up the dollars for it as well. I dont know that. And I had a restaurateur come into our store and say, You know you cant do that. He said, If you did paper and plastic, yes you could do that. And so that was the first set of funding that we did. They want to be able to be across thousands of units that you go in and you get what you said but its not a bad experience. So I started out with the first store, I paid for it myself. No cussing at anybody, that includes me. So the Squawking Goat is one of our favorite ones that people ask-, Then this will be a favorite. This is not about Scott. Thats not what I wanted to do. Or have you built such differentiated value propositions, such a well-branded company that competing with you would take longer or cost more money than simply buying you?
