Episode Transcript

[00:00:03] Speaker A: Welcome to create wealth through franchising podcast and Kim Daly TV. I am your host, Kim Daly. I want to educate, motivate, and inspire your business ownership journey by interviewing CEO's, leaders, sales coaches, and exceptional franchisees to learn their valuable insights and strategies that we can apply to our own business ownership dreams. Now onto the show. Welcome back to create wealth through franchising podcast and Kim Daly TV. I am your host, Kim Daly. And today we have a special guest in studio. His name is Micah Keith, all the way from Orem, Utah. He's not a skier, but Kim Daly wishes he was. Micah, welcome to the studio of Kim Daly TV. [00:00:55] Speaker B: Kim, great. Thanks so much for having me here. I really appreciate it. [00:00:58] Speaker A: He may not be a skier, but he is a pioneer. And he is going to share early news about kind of an emerging, not kind of an emerging brand. We here at Kim Daily TV have had the founder and the president of the brand on, and you guys seem to like that episode. So I've been dying to get a franchisee from the Milkshake factory here to share some early news. So we want to back up Micah before we just start talking about, well, you're not even open yet, so we're not really going to talk about that. We want to back up and we want to tell the listeners your story. What problem in your life were you solving for what happened in your life when you started to think, gosh, I need to do something different? And how did that thought or conversation lead you eventually to franchising? [00:01:48] Speaker B: Yeah, that's a great question, Kim. And kind of where I was in my life. So just to back up a little bit about my experience. So, my professional career has mostly been in the CPG world, consumer packaged goods, where I've been a brand manager. So I've been running brands in the grocery store. And so for those that aren't familiar, I know when I say that to someone like, I'm in brand management or I'm CPG, most people are like, I have no idea what that is. Speaking when you walk into a grocery store and you see the brands on the shelf, the way kind of that industry works is every single brand is almost kind of its own mini business. And so you have marketers, brand managers that are behind that brand and basically run that within a larger company. So a company will have 20 different brands, like a Nestle or a Heinz or blue diamond. They'll have all these different brands and brand manager teams behind that are running that. So that's what I've been doing. I started my career at Heinz. That was my dream. I got to run bagel bites, which was just as a little kid, I just love those. And also done smart ones. Went over to Nestle, where I worked on Libby's Pumpkin and Butoni and Nestle Tollhouse, and then I went over to blue diamond growers, actually, where I ran almond breeze, almond milk across the US and Canada. So, had a wonderful career. It was going very well. And then what happened was I got a really awesome offer to come to a very smaller, very small baked cheese snack company called Snow McCreamery. I said, come on in, Micah. Run all of our marketing. Lead the way. We really want to take this only in club brand to retail, which is huge opportunity. Here's this great package. You'll get a cut of the company. Oh, and by the way, you can work fully remote, you can work wherever you'd like to work. And so at that point in my life, which was about a year and a half ago, you know, I had seven children. The oldest is 15, down to two years old. We had been living in Ohio, Pennsylvania, California, moving for the job. [00:03:48] Speaker A: Not to interrupt you moving for the job. [00:03:51] Speaker B: And at this point in our life, I mean, we've got, my wife and I, we've got parents that are aging. They're getting in their seventies. We're kind of like. At this point, we're like, you know what? I should take this opportunity. Let's go live near family and kind of just totally just settle and be close to family and kind of have those connections. [00:04:07] Speaker A: Yeah. With a 15 year old in high school. [00:04:09] Speaker B: Right. [00:04:09] Speaker A: Like, he or she would probably like to, like, have some, like, stable high school career. Right? Like, yeah, yeah. Good for you guys. Good for you for making that decision. Okay. [00:04:20] Speaker B: Yeah, absolutely. So again, we've been, like, every five years, we've been kind of moving to the next opportunity. And the kids have been wonderful with it, and so is my wife. But it was on this one. Then when we went to Sonoma, that went really well for six months. At the end of six months, they had hired me and a few others to like, okay, we're going to go from club, we're going to get into retail. Big strategic push. And basically what happened was they were like, oops, we bid off way more than we can chew. The cost, the investment, what banks and our investors need. This isn't going to work out. So we're going to go back to doing what we're doing. And we are so sorry. I was like a week away from closing on my home when they told me this. And so I'd already left my previous place where I'd moved there for blue diamond. So then I was like, wow, okay, what do we, what do I do next? I was like, okay, well, do, do I continue the path I've been going, let's go look for the next corporate opportunity. Do I continue to move to Utah? Figure it out there. And as most, for those that don't know, I mean, there's not many food companies in Utah. I mean, the most are on the coasts or in Chicago. Denver has a good cluster, but not really many in Utah. So then I was like, okay, well, what are my options? What am I looking at? And so I'd always had my back pocket. I could start my own consulting firm. Just do what I've been doing as a freelance consultant. There's always needs in the CPG industry to, like, fill in or do special projects. So I started looking around, and what was kind of cool is actually at this time, because I was taking this role fully remote, I let them know, hey, I'm uprooting my children from. At that time we're in California or moving to Utah to be in your family. That was the biggest cluster family. I'd already aligned with Sonoma creamery. Hey, I'm uprooting my kids. I don't know if I'm going to do this again. I'm going to fully take advantage of the fully remote and I'm going to travel across the country for a few months with my kids before we settle in Utah, just to fun, just to see the country. And so when this happens, we're like, oh, should we still do that or not? And we're like, you know what? Absolutely. We're going to still do it. So we spent a few months, actually in a van Brady bunch over here. [00:06:29] Speaker A: I love this story. Like, on the edge of my seat, Micah. [00:06:35] Speaker B: Eleven national parks, tons of different things, like southern part of the country from January through March. It was pretty amazing. But I just took that time to, we really worked with state and Airbnbs during the work week. I would during that time network and kind of figure out, okay, what opportunities are out there, what do I want to do next? And it was in all that contemplation and that kind of really cool experience that I was, at the end of the day, I was like, okay, I'm going to start my own consulting firm. I'm just going to keep doing what I've been doing. There's no opportunities in Utah. If I do want the opportunities that look the most enticing to me, I'd have to move to East coast, to Portland, to California, southern California. And I was just. At that point, I had already built up my whole family, my kids, every family. So I was like, we're going to follow through and we're going to do this. So that's what got me to that point where actually, okay, I'm starting this consulting firm. So at this point, I had a franchise consultant who had reached out to me and was like, hey, have you thought about franchising? I'm like, oh, let's explore it. They gave me, like, a half a dozen different things to look at, and none of them, I was like, none of these just, like, feel right. The closest one I got to was kind of a smoothie shop, and we happened to be in Florida, where one of them were. And we went in and I was like, let's check this out. And after tasting the product, and I was like, no, this is not. I'm not feeling this one. And then I was like, I'm not going to franchise. It's just not working out. And so that's kind of like, I started consulting. And then actually, it was in the consulting. As I was getting that going, I was reaching out to all my past friends and colleagues, letting him know, hey, guys, I'm starting my own consulting. If you ever have any needs, let me know. Just really starting my business. And I was able to get busy very quickly. But it was in that process, actually, I was talking to a fellow colleague from my MBA school, and she was like, oh, you know who you need to talk to? Our friend Dan Reese. I was like, dan? Yeah, Dan and I worked together at Hines. I'm like, what's Dan up to? Is he still in the CPG world? Is he doing something else? You'll be really surprised. And so that's when I reached out to Dan, and Dan gave me his kind of story, his journey. [00:08:43] Speaker A: By the way, Dan is the president of the milkshake factory. For those who are following this amazing story. [00:08:51] Speaker B: I reached out to Dan. He told me about his journey. Yeah, I was in CBG, went through state at Hines, whereas I moved on to Nestle. And then he, from there, got connected with the Edwards family. Yada, yada, yada. And then also the Edwards family have this wonderful, amazing little shop that's been there for more than 100 years that all of a sudden is just naturally, organically growing like crazy in Pittsburgh. And they're like, dan, come on over. Help us figure out what we should do with this. And so, as I learned more about that, I was like, that is so intriguing. What is the milkshake factory? I was in Pittsburgh for five years for grad school, and with Hines, I remember the milkshake factory on the south side. And he's like, yeah, I guess after I left, that's when it just really started exploding. And then I learned, yeah, it's a milkshake shop and a chocolate shop combined. It's got this amazing family legacy and story. The products are amazing. You got to try them. And as I learned more about this, I knew a little bit about the Utah consumer. We'd come here a lot to be with family, to know that. And if there's one thing that Utah consumers love, is, is they love sugar. They're not as much into coffee. They're not as much in alcohol. [00:09:56] Speaker A: They're out eating, and they need sugar to recover. [00:10:02] Speaker B: Exactly right. I mean, they're the most kids per capita in the entire country. I mean, there's a reason we need our sugar fix. So I was like, I feel like this concept would do amazing in Utah. And so I started doing the due diligence. I still was consulting. I was still getting that going. And that was. I was very fortunate to really get busy immediately and. And get that going. But then the more I learned about the milkshake fact, the more I was like, I was like, I can't pass this opportunity up. I knew Dan Reese. I got to meet the Edwards family. Gosh, just amazing people. Dan has always been just such high integrity, very transparent. He was not like, I mean, he had not even registered the milkshake factory at this point when I was talking with him. But he's just, he's not pushy. He's not a salesman. He's just like, hey, here's all the information. Take it or leave it. But, you know, if it's appealing, like, I think it's a really great opportunity. And so, yeah, I then was. I was sold. I just. All the things I looked through, just like how, as the FTD came out, you know, scouring that to look at that and how healthy they were. I went out to the first discovery day. I went to seven of the eleven things just to check the brand. And, yeah, me as a brand guy, marketing guy, I was like, they got this down. And, like, you know, Dan Reese at the head. He's a CPG myself. Yeah, totally amazing. So, I mean, all these boxes were checked, and so I was like, sign me up. I'm in. This is absolutely going to score so well. And I think in Utah especially, the consumer's gonna love it. [00:11:27] Speaker A: Hey, daily Coach fans, if you're loving this episode, please do me a quick favor and leave me a five star rating and a short review. Your feedback fuels my growth and rankings and shows others that this podcast is valuable. Now back to the show. All right, I gotta go all the way back to startup CPG company. Right. Which definitely had the. Sadly that 90% of startup businesses don't make it success story. Right. Which is a failure story. Right. So that's kind of sad for you, and you got caught up in that, and so you. I just. And I love how, like, I guess a consultant who was probably on LinkedIn or something found you and was, you know, it kind of introduced you to the idea of franchising, so then you had this, like, familiarity with franchising, so it was already sort of like, swimming around in your consciousness. Right. And then just, like, by things happening now I want to talk about the human side of this story. So, you know, when I listened to your story, that was the first time I've heard it. For the followers out there, I promise we did not rehearse this. What I love is that your life got stirred up. Like, you thought you had a path, and then it all fell apart. But you didn't fall apart. So it demonstrates already, I think, to me, anyway, what's deep inside of you is so solid, and I'm sure there were moments where you and your wife were kind of freaking out because you have seven mouths to feed, or nine. [00:13:02] Speaker B: I guess what's fun is actually, we just had another baby two weeks ago, so now we got it. It's great. We're just. What's cool, too, is I'm still like, hey, maybe I don't need to hire anyone. [00:13:14] Speaker A: I just got another baby to the max. You got a whole team of people that eventually are going to grow up that you can employ. [00:13:23] Speaker B: It's so good, though. [00:13:24] Speaker A: It's so good. But, like, for those listeners out there who want everything to be perfect all the time, this story is so fun because it just shows you how life is so messy, right? You think you're on this trajectory, and then it's like you're falling off the cliff, and then you got to pick yourself back up. And what's so amazing about that is that's exactly how owning a business is, even inside of a franchise right now, you have mustered the courage to say yes to a very brand new franchise. You are a pioneering franchisee for the Milkshake factory. So with your setup, I understand now more like, why you were able to make that leap of faith. Because it is a leap of faith. Right. But tell us, tell the listeners more about, was it. Are you really just betting on Dan and the people you met? What was the connection that helped you say, I'm doing this without reservation? [00:14:26] Speaker B: Yeah, Kim, that's a great question. And I. And Dan, absolutely. Leadership is a part of that. And the great thing about, like, I just know Dan. I trust him implicitly. I just knew him as a. As a Heinz and how smarty, intelligent he was then and again, how much integrity he has and all those things. So that was, like, kind of a no brainer. Yeah, okay. You got that. But that doesn't make a business like, I'm not. Just because someone's a wonderful person and really smart and intelligent doesn't mean, like, I want to go into business with you. My experience and what I'm leaning on is, you know, I've been almost 15 years in the marketing space. I've been building brands in the. In the food world. And so when I was looking at the business, then part of what that I lean to is marketing and the brand. Like, how strong is this brand? Is it aligned? Does it have a character or voice? Does it really stand for something? Is it differentiated? Or is it just a copycat? And as I examined and really looked hard at the milkshake factory, how they've been treating it in Pittsburgh, and because I have a lot of the wonderful things, because I have a lot of connections in Pittsburgh, I can talk to a lot of friends, like, do you know the milkshake factory? How do you feel about it? All those things? And I talked to a lot of people and everyone just like, it's just amazing. Like, I was. Like, I was there. How did I miss this? But again, it exploded after I left, and everyone has such a strong opinion of how amazing this brand is. And then when I went in and checked it for myself, went to as many stores as I could during that discovery day and then saw how consistent they were, saw the way the people that they hire and kind of that the culture that's there. And then also just the other thing that really just gave me a ton of confidence after seeing the brand was actually the operations. So as I saw behind the scenes during Discovery day, all of the intentional thought and tweaks and small details that they focused on to make sure that this functioned and was very efficient, that was really, to me, just gave me that last piece of confidence saying, yeah, this is a winning concept. This is a winning business. Even though I might be the first one, I feel like the calculated risk of this is so low because of everything that I've checked on. So that's what gave me just like, yeah, this is going to do very well. And it's for that reason, Kim, actually, that instead of just saying, yeah, I'll launch one, maybe I'll grow and get two, maybe three, like, I was like, no, like, I think this is going to explode. And, and Utah being the home of crumble and other franchises that do really well in sugar, I was like, I feel as soon as this gets out there, people are going to start snagging everything around me, and I'm just going to. So I scratch. And I bought six locations. [00:17:02] Speaker A: You mean one per kid? One per kid. [00:17:06] Speaker B: I did that because I just, I just feel so bullish on the opportunity. So it definitely was like, you know, but I was like, how far can I go to kind of get as much territory? Because I just feel like this is going to do something. [00:17:16] Speaker A: This is so great. I want to come back and talk about your dear, sweet wife here in just a minute. But I want to. What you just said is so amazing because so many people out there think they've looked at a franchise because they've done research online. And every single thing this man has just said to you listeners is what you're looking for is not online. Which I say to people all day long, right. And how a brand presents to the consumer is online the secret sauce, the magic of the opportunity getting you to think like an investor inside the opportunity only happens when you're inside the brand, able to meet the franchisor and they pull back the curtain and they show you, this is who we really are. This is what makes us a great franchise opportunity, right? Anybody can launch a brand based on a good product, but that doesn't mean that goes on to become a big, solid american brand. It's the systems, it's the operations, it's the vision of the entire organization, which the, the milkshake factory definitely has. And not to go without mention. I mean, you said it in the beginning, this is a 100 year old family, generational, you know, four generations of family have carried these recipes forward. Right? I believe the original grandparents were, original family members were from Lebanon. As I recall from the interview with Dana Edwards and her grandmother, great great great grandparents came from Lebanon, and all they knew how to do was make chocolate. And so when they came to Pittsburgh, they became chocolatiers, and then the kids grew up, and then they went to the Pentagon, and then they took the chocolate shop to the Pentagon. Right? Those who follow my podcast. Are you remembering the story this was told? So anyway, I just love that part, and it just speaks so much to. If you're curious about a brand, don't talk yourself out by looking at stuff you're reading online. You have to get inside and meet the people and do the proper due diligence that an investor can only do, and that's through a consultant or being directly connected to the franchisor. So that kind of caps all that you just said, which was amazing. So let's talk about your dear, sweet, wonderful, amazing, newly mothered again wife and how. Because this is the human side of this story, right? So think of this poor woman, right? She's moved around the country with you all these years, has all these babies. That. That alone is, like, makes me just want to hug her for, like, one solid hour. So now you're moving. The whole thing falls apart. How your whole life is paid for. Falls apart. You pick yourself up and say, hey, I'm not going back to a job. I'm going to become an entrepreneur. So how does this conversation go down? Household. [00:20:16] Speaker B: I think you've done this before. You kind of sing. Absolutely. That's a part of it. [00:20:21] Speaker A: Well, I mean, on the wall for a minute. Take us back in time. [00:20:28] Speaker B: The initial. I mean, when I got the news, I was just, you know, I've never had something like this happen before, so it was a very. I mean, it was a shock. I was actually amazed how. Just how well I was able to handle it, just because I was just like, you know, like everything. I just. Deep down, I just have a very, very deep sense of, like, you know, everything happens for a reason. And when I. When I think of just what I've built up over my life and my career, I just feel like, you know what? It's gonna work out. Like, I'm gonna find somewhere, some way to find a way to take care of my family and then to make this work. So I was actually very, very cool through that. And then, as I told my wife, beautiful thing is, I also thought she was gonna just fall apart and be like, of course. And certainly there's moments of panic and, like, oh, my gosh, what are we gonna do? But she was actually really. What. What I'm just so grateful for with my wife is just how much trust she has in me. When we got married. I mean, I she jokes, you took me away from my family, but I trust you. We're gonna make it all work. And I let her know, like, with direction, I want to go with my professional life. It's likely I'm not gonna be here in Utah. There's only so many industries, so many things. I know your family's here, but, like, I've got some big dreams, and I really want to take care of my family. And if you let me do this, I know the money and the time will be there. We can visit family. We'll be with them, and we're not going to be stuck somewhere else. And for the most part, that turned out to be true. Like, even though we lived in different places, gosh, we were just very blessed to have money and opportunity to come back as a family, and it's worked out. And so when this bombshell drop, though, of, like, you know, 15 years in and then this big opportunity, you know, I. It wasn't too big of a shock just because it was a risk we knew going into. It's a smaller company, a little bit more risky. But if it turns out, wow, this could be, like, I could write my own ticket from this point on. It doesn't turn out well. You know, we'll cross that bridge. And it turned out like, yeah, it didn't turn out like they just bit off more than they can choose, so. So she was. She was great about just, you know what, Micah? I trust you. We're gonna make this work. There was a lot of, like, trepidation, though, on our plans to go across the country and to be with and to just have this experience as a family, because she was like, oh, just move to Utah, buckle down, you know. [00:22:46] Speaker A: Like, we save that money. Yeah, yeah, exactly. [00:22:51] Speaker B: And then we just kind of waited out. Well, yeah, I mean, we could, but, like, we're going. We're paying rent or a mortgage or, like, whatever, you know, and the expenses living there versus, you know, we're maybe spending a little bit more, but we're staying across and having this experience that we're probably never going to have again. [00:23:05] Speaker A: Right. [00:23:06] Speaker B: And so at the end of the day, we're like, you know what? We're just going to bite the bullet, and we're going to go for the experience more than the money on this one. And thankfully, I got, you know, I got a severance that we're like, that really just kind of let us make that happen, and we had an incredible experience. So then when we get around that, that was one thing got through that there was still a lot of anxiety. Like, she really was like, we're like, as we're doing this, we're getting to Texas, and my wife, I've been able to travel a little bit more with business and other things. My wife, for the most part, besides just living where I've lived, hasn't done a lot of traveling. So when we were on this trip, we're in Texas, and we're going to go through the south, which I've done a little bit of south, but not a lot. She's done none. So she's like, I don't know anything about Louisiana or Mississippi or Alabama. You know what? How about we get to Texas? We just turn around and we're good? Like, no, we are in. We're going coast to coast. We're going for it. And it ended up like, I mean, we just fell in love with the south and the experiences we had along. I mean, we did the whole Florida panhandle, everglades, and, like, Miami and, like, the beaches and just. It was just an incredible experience. And it's like you were now actually, year later, my wife's like, I am itching to do something like that again. That was so amazing, so good. That was really great. And then now we finished up, and then I'm like, hey, I'm going to do my consulting. She was like, that's no problem. She was. That was no, no issue. In fact, she was almost like, why don't you just do that for the rest of your life? Because I love you being home. I love you having a flexible work schedule. Okay, I could, but came out personally. I was like, I'm just as a w two employee and also even as a consultant, in a way, I'm just trading my time for money. And if I don't work, if I don't put in my hours, I don't get paid. And I would love to build something that I can just get going and operate. And then I could work on other things, or I could focus on my family as they're growing and all those other things. And that's where, when I saw the milkshake factory and creating this type of business, I was like, this is really, really cool. So then we get to the point where I made the decision doing milkshake factory, I'm going to kind of extend ourselves, and I'm going to get as many territories as I can. That's when it got real. [00:25:20] Speaker A: That's when she's like, hey, Daly Coach fans, if you're ready to begin your own journey to find the perfect franchise. Please email me right now at [email protected]. My services are totally free for you. That's [email protected]. Now back to the show! I think we lost listeners, like, minutes ago when it got real, but I love that this is when it got real. Guys, when he's down, should he do one or should he do six? [00:25:55] Speaker B: Because that's when I'm like, you know, here's. I'm going to go all in, like, in order to finance it and get this big area. Like, I'm going to, you know, I've been built up a 401k. Let's do a robs, so I'm not having to do so much. And then also, we had personal savings, and because we sold our house, we do have a good chunk of equity and also savings there. So that could help as well. In addition to, I'll probably take a small SBA loan just to start building credit as an entrepreneur, since this is new. And then I'm going all in. I'm feeling very confident about how that. And that's where I want conversations, lots of. Are you really sure? Micah, I trust you, but are you really, like, how are you feeling about this? And so that's. That's taken, you know, that took a lot of just really a lot of talking through, a lot of her also seeing more of what I'm seeing so she could see that. And then at the end of the day, it came down to, like, she goes, yes, I heard. I know your experience. I know who you are as a person, and I know you would not do something on whims. Like, you've got myself and all these kids you got to take care of, so you're not just gonna throw out fortunes just to, like, have fun. Like, you're doing this because you truly believe in it. And if you believe in it and trust in it, then, you know, I trust in you. And so that doesn't mean ever since then, there's times where she's like, are you sure? Like, are you sure we're gonna do, like, sure you don't want to, like, maybe just do three or two or one to start out, feel it, like, those have come up. But she's been just. She's wonderful. She's amazing, and she's. Again, it's that trust she has. We've been able to get this far. [00:27:34] Speaker A: It's an amazing story. I mean, it's an entrepreneurial rollercoaster up and down. And we have followed you now for over 20 minutes. It's just amazing. And I'm going to end this interview or this episode on this note. In my business coaching interviews, I talk about storytelling and the stories that we tell ourselves. And you could take this exact same story in a negative mindset, storytelling pattern, and it would have very, very different outcomes. The number one thing that kept me smiling the entire time you were talking, Micah, was just admiring how you and your wife are telling yourself stories that are built with faith and hope, and you're inspired and you respect each other and you trust. And that attitude is what spirals you to success. Most people think that when you're successful in a business or franchise because it's because you bought the right brand or you bought the right system. But the strategy that you buy is only about 20% of the success equation. The 80% is the tone of this entire conversation, the mindset, how you think, how you talk, and how you act. And you've already set up your family and most importantly, yourself for massive success just by being you. This person who dares to take a step, who has a positive attitude, who believes that things happen for a reason, doesn't look back, but just keeps looking forward and keeps dreaming bigger. I mean, this was so inspiring. I know why our good friend Carrie told me, you gotta get Micah on your show. God bless you. Thank you so much for being our special guest here today, sharing your story. And this is definitely going to be part one of a multi series interview with you, Micah, because I want to hear what happens after you open for a few months. And then I even might want to talk to you after you take your second trip around the country with eight children. I think we should document her. I need to send my production crew out with you and document. [00:29:50] Speaker B: It's a fun fact. We have a good time. It's really great. [00:29:53] Speaker A: Oh, it's so good. I appreciate your time. Thank you so much for sharing your story here today. [00:29:59] Speaker B: No, Kim, it was a pleasure. Thanks for letting me share it, and really just thanks for everything you shared. Just, I love your insight, love your podcast, love everything you're doing. It's a great mission that you're on. [00:30:09] Speaker A: It's amazing. Thank you so much. For those who are not inspired by this story, I guess you should just turn off at this point. But for those who are sitting there thinking, man, I don't know if I want that one, but I'm ready to begin my own journey to find my perfect franchise. You know that I want to be your Daly Coach.
