We recently connected with Fernanda Lizbeth Verduzco and have shared our conversation below.
Fernanda Lizbeth, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Are you happier as a business owner? Do you sometimes think about what it would be like to just have a regular job?
I am happier being the owner of my company, but for now I continue with a job too, it is very different to just focus on working for 8 hours than having to be 24-7 thinking about what to do to grow your business, yes it is more hard but you enjoy every step
Fernanda Lizbeth, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
My husband and I studied gastronomy in Mexico, he is focused on hot and molecular cuisine and I am on baking.
I started selling my desserts, personalized cakes, cookies during the pandemic, since the casino where I worked was closed, soon I was having more orders until I reached a point where my kitchen was no longer sufficient.
So with my husband this idea was born to look for a place but not only for desserts, but also a place where he could do what he liked.
With the little we had we found a small place where creative pastry and coffee is now located, a cafeteria where you will find coffee, desserts, cakes, bread, as well as delicious breakfasts, lunch and dinner
our ideas of creating something unique, a good dish that not only looks good, but also has a good flavor and even better with an affordable price
All the dishes were created from memories, flavors, experiences, that have accompanied us all this time.
Can you talk to us about how your funded your business?
Well, we raised money by working hard, all our savings, my parents and my siblings supported me financially, and also physically.
Any thoughts, advice, or strategies you can share for fostering brand loyalty?
We try to create a connection with the client, know what they like, listen to all their criticisms and suggestions, adapt to the needs of our customers, always communication and feeling part is important to u
