Making $1000 Per Month Selling Cookies | Business Audit

[@rebeccaogrady2995]

The weddings are a great idea, but I would also go to hotels or business centers that host seminars. They often do cookies, muffins, and donuts in their meetings.

[@paoslice]

Love this new type of video , Graham in the wild 😂 If it becomes a regular thing I would love a follow up! See if your advice works!

[@talk2mambie]

I love love love this video Graham, would love to see more from you . Thank you always for the effort you put in your content

[@paulfoytack5267]

Great advice. Bootstrap it as long as you can stand it. Keep each expansion as cheap as possible for as long as you can. Forget the store front. That brings a whole other set of problems. It's the way we did it and we never borrowed money and it worked very well for 35 years. Sold and retired.

[@JeazyG]

Graham, I love the recent push for different videos like this one. Please do more!

[@TheGrahamStephanShow]

More to come!

[@rangequeen]

Wishing them so much success! Absolutely loved this! Great advice, Graham.

[@TheGrahamStephanShow]

Thanks so much!

[@Marco-fe5wu]

Love the business review content! Another suggestion would be to open a pop-up store. That way, it’s possible to test the store front idea with low risk and without a long-term lease. Since the cookies don’t need a lot of space, a booth, for example inside a casino could be a great option too.

[@aryannaramirez8150]

Ooo I love this - I thought it was so admirable of him that he wanted to open a storefront bc he loves connecting with people 🥹 that’s just so wholesome, pop up store is very nice alternative!! Plus he can use his lovely personality to speak with food influencers, he seems so easy to talk to

[@alexissheeley-realtor5292]

❤ An Alex appearance!! ♡ So glad he's still around!

[@TheAlexKelley]

YOOOOO ALEX IS HERE HELL YEAH

[@ColombianLNP]

Duuude this was AWESOME please more content like this ! Cheers from your biggest fan in Colombia amigo and also hey there alex !

[@thomasakhurst1709]

These videos are a fun idea. I like it, nice change keeps your content fresh. Good idea!

[@TheGrahamStephanShow]

Glad you like them!

[@EcomCarl]

I love how his passion for baking shines through in his approach to making cookies! 🍪 Quality ingredients and a sprinkle of love truly make all the difference. Can't wait to see CocoCookies grow with your insightful advice on online marketing!

[@letscirclebackgames]

This video came up in my recommended and it was so fun and informative to watch! Subscribed. Hope you do more business audit videos like this in the future, as someone starting a side business (team building card games for consultants) outside my full time job at a consulting firm, I love to learn more about small business startup whenever I can!

[@Angrialex]

fun drinking game: take a shot everytime the guy says "yeah"

[@rowsaurus]

yeah I was thinking the same 😂

[@TheRealFrostysaur]

Take a shot every time graham moves his hands 😂

[@aboutabrad]

💀

[@martinmi5]

Hey at least he’s open to good advice

[@user-uz8js5bm9i]

Love this series Graham!! I've seen every one. You gave him really good advice. I hope he does try to maximize marketing online before opening up a storefront.

[@wagonwheelgirl8897]

Love this type of content of you interviewing businesses Graham!

[@dkgong]

Great content! You should turn this into a series where you help out small businesses (ala The Profit). Hopefully you do a followup later on.

[@bhagbir510]

Just bought some classic Chocolate chip cookies 😊..gonna try out and see

[@bhagbir510]

Okay I had them, they taste really good.. chocolate chip cookies …also feels like Saks 5th packaging 😂btw

[@cynthiagreencmt7709]

Thank you for this! As a new small business owner I really appreciate this sort of content. 😎👍

[@danilarance]

Love this concept for a video series! I am trying to build up my own small business now, so it would be wonderful to see more of this type of content.

[@brightlyart]

I loved this and want to binge these

[@louisdicarlo8569]

I really like these video about Auditing start up businesses. I'm glad you brought up how the storefront isn't a good idea until they get 5k a month online. A lot of businesses try to scale too quickly and take on too much debt too quickly. Looking forward to more videos like this.

[@MadTownHobby]

This kind of video is 100x better than the reacting to other youtube videos. Keep it coming.

[@fattestedtravel]

Great to see Alex! But I would like to be clear that I was the first one to have Alex and a cookie video when he was here in Orlando

[@Annie-yf1tu]

I’ve been loving videos like this from you; the view count disappoints me, i want more content like this!!

[@kin6david]

This was such a good video and all the advice was money!

[@TheGrahamStephanShow]

Thanks for watching!

[@comment2250]

Graham, you did a great job providing good, practical advice.

[@MalachiMunn]

I love this content. Thank you Graham and your team for this video!

[@Yulia_wilcox_mua]

So good! More videos like this, please 😊

[@nickwlker]

Thanks for sharing a great story!

[@Gest-wg2yb]

This was fantastic, id love more in the spirit of this You weren't cocky or judgemental, you just sounded like a concerned friend with experience and it was almost too short

[@christinab9133]

Great advice Graham ❤❤❤

[@AliceFennelly]

Loveeeeeeeee this series idea!

[@BroganBernstein1]

I really like this concept of business audits

[@danielmills3337]

More of this please!

[@TheGrahamStephanShow]

Deal!

[@lukescapee1234]

Love these videos about smaller businesses!

[@DKilgallen]

I want to open a bakery for cottage bakers to sell their goods. No actual baking done there but cottage bakers take turns selling their home baked goods in person. In a storefront. But instead of one baker paying the rent and having to make thousands a month, it would be shared by all of the bakers who participate.

[@Millnar]

I like the new concept.

[@dianarengifo9135]

Loving this business audit

[@marias8007]

i like this kind of video - you giving advice to a small business owner

[@Thailand-Wanderer]

this was a really great video. made me want to start baking cookies!

[@johnnyjohnson262]

Love this new style video!

[@Glanzern]

This is a good idea for a series. Keep it up! Small businesses only plz.

[@trvpboifetti5006]

Love the Alex cameo

[@kevinyokomura4233]

Definitely make more of these types of video's. So fascinating

[@ParkDari]

I recently talked someone out of a store front. Their success has been at festivals. I recommended a trial of pop ups first.

[@TiernanDeFranco]

I like the idea of this as a series and would love to see more

[@w26gt]

Love this new content!

[@bjlbernal]

There is a cookie company around called "Crumbl". They do "cookie of the week". Having an email list, he can do a similar thing, letting past customers know when their favorite cookie is available at a deal, as well as announce special season or theme cookies. Red white and Blue fireworks sprinkle cookie for Fourth of July is an example.

[@marcohernandez7901]

Great video idea. Keep these coming. I think you saved him from a lot of debt. Some advice: Maybe start a new channel Better settings (background is distracting) Create a budget for them and marketing ideas on screen for us to see Thanks, Graham!!!

[@hutchinsoncaraudio9234]

Love it! Do more of these!

[@jgpainting8815]

I didn’t know you could sell cookies on Etsy !!!🎉😊❤

[@marykatg8s]

Love this type of content 😌

[@english_5359]

Please do more of this!

[@OldManGame]

Should have an option to add a cookie to your coffee order!

[@GalaxyFluke]

Farmers market or pop up shops before store front

[@malcolm7123]

Great advice, graham!

[@ct8018]

Star by having the Etsy shop open when you are being promoted on KZbin!

[@randomguy1221]

Yoo this is a cool video idea. Grahams business consulting series

[@MJB4646]

Great video, useful info, definitely hope you make more of these! (So commenting for the almighty algorithm lol)

[@MFTW]

I'd love a full length version of this!

[@Financial_Maven]

Can you make an update video regarding your yotta investment. It seems the company is done, and I would love to hear what you learnt from it.

[@cw485]

He needs to do local farmers markets. They are cheap to do and he gets his name out in the community. Have a sign on your table at the market to "Follow on Social Media". He can also link his social media with the markets social media to get more exposure. Also meet up with local businesses because they always have some kind of meeting, holiday events, lunches, etc and you can cater the dessert. Good Luck! Great story 😋

[@bryceporter6206]

I would love a series of giving small businesses(10k or less per month) advice.

[@Abogadomedico]

Great content! Give us more

[@itsRomainFaure]

Excellent video!

[@josephpeterka6069]

Graham, I've been wondering for years where you got the Mickey Mouse Art "WALL STREET WHERE DREAMS COME TRUE". Probably my favorite piece of yours. Care to share?

[@hivyfalou1393]

And another thing the owner of the business can rotate the types of cookies he sells over a week or a month whatever works for him, this way people will crave the type they want, also they won't get choice pralysis when they order.

[@clevinjack1129]

I'm really starting to believe that cookies is like a new wave cuz a lot of kids that are just getting out of college in my area in Michigan have been starting cookie businesses and they're doing fantastic. I'd much rather buy cookies from a college student that is trying really hard and about health cares then my local Walmart or random food Mart

[@bjlbernal]

Having a store front isn't necessarily a bad thing. As long as the majority of the space and time is dedicated to baking for the fulfillment of orders. The store front would be the local walk in. Besides that, I am surprised you didn't alternately mention looking for a day-rate kitchen space so that he can expand the baking side of the operation. Part of a new business' concern is being able to handle large orders or multiple medium orders. Having a location he can rent last minute if need be would be an irregular cost that he can have budgeted into his reserves and partly pass on to the customer as the down payment of the order.

[@OldManGame]

Haha, he wants to buy Graham cookies 🍪 😂 They must be good.

[@chrisklupenger4999]

Orders on his Etsy are currently paused 😭😭

[@sercan272727]

hey graham, you should make a video on Yotta freezing money movement

[@martinmi5]

A lot of people have a fetish for opening a store front but don’t realize or care how much time and money actually goes into it. Plus he’s only making $1000 a month with cookies, no way he can afford $5000 rent at this point

[@Courtney-Alice-Gargani]

This make me feel like I'm back in the Girl Scouts. Hahah

[@Andre-Nader]

Another piece of feedback on Etsy listings. I have no idea how much cookies weigh. Why do you need "2.6oz" in the titles? I am more curious how many cookies I am getting for that price.

[@sananapee]

Great video concept. A little bit of polish and this could be awesome. It could be like shark tank but you aren't offering money. You're offering advice haha

[@daddo1600]

Def online and get this to as many people in the USA as possible.... store fronts would be a great thing even if it was a 'pop up' stall.

[@saulgoodman2018]

Why not have a cart on the strip? Mailing cookies does not taste the same as freshly made.

[@Courtney-Alice-Gargani]

It would have been fun to watch Graham make the cookies from start to finish.

[@JordanParrish724]

"I'm Graham Stephen and THIS is business audit"

[@wan4479]

bro, make this is a series. I think for a business owner who like coco who may do something they are going to risk too much. help them if you have the time. I would watch that for sure.. Channel Name: Business Audit with Graham. Anyway keep it up, bro.

[@ismaelhall3990]

a man with a dream

[@JFox29]

Good luck with your cookie business! Graham didn't do his voice!

[@Iayas-y2h]

Love this idea. Kitchen nightmares before they're nightmares.

[@TheWillPurvis]

Spot on advice

[@SF-fb6lv]

The only thing more natural and organic than the ingredients he uses, is the way his business started!

[@hivyfalou1393]

I feel sometimes the client doesn't want the best, it's not what they care about, so you can still have the best cookies and make something that resonates with other clients' experince, and I don't mean bad ingredients, but maybe by this they'll try different experiences and order what they want

[@jamessuehs5877]

Awesome video!

[@louisianabeast]

Still liking!

[@TheGrahamStephanShow]

Thanks!!

[@MalachiMunn]

I love Alex!

[@diodora2381]

"Yeah" "Yeah, yeah" "Yeah, yeah, yeah", the classic. I've done this many times myself, the best thing to do is to just give verbal confirmation every once in a while and nod your head and things.

[@TroyHollowman]

Dang those cookies looked too good.

[@staceybarnett2385]

Store front is too soon!

[@stevenporter863]

2:21 That is why he agreed to be on Graham's channel.

[@GodCries4Monday]

Great video

[@KeanuReevesIsMyJesus]

Yo! A shout out to Wayne Dang! Cheers guys!

[@kimberlyaguirre1233]

I like the advice

[@christopherderksen5524]

Insane he wanted to open a storefront w/ a 5k bill every month, when he was only making 1k a month selling online

[@majesticsnowleopard]

Very good video
