Abrams, and Oprah Winfrey as fans.  Brian and Jackie talk to Heath about their fast climb and steep fall, declaring bankruptcy just as coronavirus was shutting down New York and ultimately losing their roles in the company they founded.

We started with a single pushcart in Prospect Park in the summer of 2010 and opened our first scoop shop in May of 2011. We were novice entrepreneurs and new parents in search of a neighborhood ice cream shop filled with nostalgia and whimsy and over the top, playful ice cream flavors. We are proud to have founded Ample Hills Creamery; named after a Walt Whitman poem about the connections between people across time and space. What is it then between us? What is the count of the scores or hundreds of years between us? Whatever it is, it avails not--Distance avails not, and place avails not, I too lived, Brooklyn of ample hills was mine. --Walt Whitman, Crossing Brooklyn Ferry 1856

Charlie O’Donnell has been an active member of the NY startup community for over 15 years, with a reputation of being the most accessible early stage investor in New York. His fund, Brooklyn Bridge Ventures has made over 60 investments since it was founded, often leading or co-leading investments in a wide variety of startups including The Wing, Petal, Clubhouse, Hungryroot, and Ample Hills Creamery, among others. In today's podcast we discuss: Misconceptions about angel investment versus VC. Reasons to avoid raising money from friends and family. Why raising small amounts of capital is as difficult as raising large amounts. Who should pitch him for investment. And so much more. If you’ve listened to previous episodes, you’ll notice there’s a recurring theme around what it takes to bring an idea into the world. I think many of the principles are universal- you have a great idea, you see a need, you find your audience, and so on. However, what I think is not very clear to the average person is how money affects the business you build, how quickly you get started and grow, the culture of your company, and so forth. If you listened to the last episode with Ryan Chethiyawardana, he says at the end that money is NOT the barrier to launching your idea, and I couldn’t agree more. So, in today’s episode, we do a deep dive into financing, and look at some of the questions startup founders may have as they’re trying to launch and grow their businesses.

Ample Hills Creamery owners Jackie Cuscuna and Brian Smith tell their story of grappling with success so overwhelming that they were afraid it would cost them their business before it even got off the ground. In this episode of Rally, a podcast about business leaders facing failure and bouncing back, we hear about how neglecting to plan for success led Ample Hills Creamery to close its doors just a few days after opening in 2011. Ample Hills opened in Brooklyn, New York, with ambitions of being a “small, little neighborhood ice cream shop.” Following a career in screenwriting and radio dramas, Brian hungered for a new medium to tell stories. As a lifelong ice cream lover, he and his wife decided to open an ice cream parlor where families could hang out and enjoy community. When Ample Hills opened just before Memorial Day weekend in 2011, the couple was blown away with the crowds swarming their shop. Within the first few days of being open, they realized that they’d drastically underestimated how much ice cream they would sell. The store closed four days after opening so Jackie and Brian could hire more staff, make ice cream and prepare for how to handle so many customers. The couple had poured all of their money into opening Ample Hills and worried about what would happen when their re-opened. Would people come back? Business reporter and Rally host Macaela J. Bennett has spent a year collecting these stories of hardship and missteps in people’s careers to share with listeners inspiring examples of overcoming obstacles.

Can people tell the difference between ``artisanal'' and generic? The musicians behind the Hanson Brothers Beer Company explain why this is just the beginning of the craft revolution.

This program was brought to you by Rolling Press. “Growing up, ice cream was the first food love that I had. It’s uniquely American and part of our mythology.” [03:00] “People think Ample Hills and they don’t think Brooklyn. The hills have been paved over but there used to be hills with pastures and dairy farms in Brooklyn. The name is a nice way to touch back on the history of Brooklyn.” [12:00] –Brian Smith on Eat Your Words “We wanted to invite people into the book the way we invite people into our shop.” [21:00] –Jackie Cuscuna on Eat Your Words
