The Chubby Cook: “Networking is as important as cooking”

I spent the afternoon with Scott Groth, the Chubby Cook, at his headquarters in Beachwood, OH. At this location Groth offers a limited menu to visitors each day, but also offers catering services, box lunches and cooking classes. I test-tasted a few of his offerings (more on that later), but I was totally engaged by his business outlook, and not just because his attitudes resonate so well with my own.

Networking is as important as cooking. He works pretty much exclusively with small companies throughout the Cleveland area (though if most of them are near him, he can be excused for that), as suppliers and strategic partners: Cowboy George's salsas, Posh Pierogies, Lucky Penny Creamery, and Holmes Mouthwatering Applesauce (made by a 17-year-old student at Shaker Heights High, and it's “the best applesauce I've ever eaten,” says Groth), to name a few.

Tanya Ross-Lane calls herself a "teacherpreneur." And when you're in a conversation with her, as I was recently, you might decide she's got a delightful problem: she's not someone who falls into categories you see every day.

We can see clearly that Ross-Lane is an entrepreneur. She has been since she was a child. Opening doors for folks locked out of her apartment building. Baby-sitting. Cleaning golf shoes for her father and his golfing buddies. Pressed linoleum print Christmas cards. She had the entrepreneurship bug from an early age.

Kelly Karius describes her Bully Outreach Project to the audience of the fund-raising Pepsi Refresh Project this way:

The Bully Outreach Project project will pack a lot of long term punch. The Motorhome will travel across the country and provide no cost presentations about bullying to schools. The Project will work directly with media to publicize issues relating to bullying and to profile systems that are working well within schools.

Happy Online Customers

I LOVE my t-shirt! I've had it since April and have worn and washed it many times and it's still incredibly soft and has not faded at all.

This is what a happy customer wrote about a t-shirt she got from Partners on the Planet. Partners has as a goal not only to please its customers, but to protect endangered species of animals as well. So they sell t-shirts made largely of recycled materials (very SOFT t-shirts indeed), and they also have a line of grocery bags made from recycled materials. Another customer had this to say about the grocery bags:

I loved the bag because it holds more than most grocery bags, and the handle is long enough to carry over the shoulder!
