What happens when you launch a dessert brand in the middle of a global shutdown… scale it to 31 locations… and then face economic whiplash, legal chaos, and a near-hostile takeover?In this episode, I sit down with Matt Thomas, co-founder of Cookie Co., to unpack one of the most honest entrepreneurial journeys we've ever had on BizNinja. This isn't just about cookies. It's about resilience, leadership under pressure, and what it really takes to rebuild when everything feels like it's unraveling.Matt didn't plan to build a national cookie brand during a pandemic. But when his branding agency collapsed in March 2020, he and his wife Elise went all-in on Cookie Co.—a passion project born from her lifelong love of baking.From selling cookies out of their garage (while neighbors suspected something sketchy) to hitting $1.3M in year one, the growth was explosive. Franchise interest poured in. Within a few years, they reached 31 locations across multiple states.Then the economy shifted.Eggs and butter doubled. Inflation soared. Franchisees struggled. A strategic partnership turned into a legal nightmare involving system lockouts and reputational damage.Through it all, Matt shares what he's learned about resilience, leadership, ego, and the brutal honesty entrepreneurship demands.This episode is about grit. And it's about evolving before the market forces you to. What You'll LearnWhy door-to-door sales is one of the best entrepreneurial training groundsHow Cookie Co. scaled to 31 locations during economic uncertaintyThe hidden complexities of franchisingWhat happens when inflation crushes your margins overnightHow to navigate lawsuits, PR damage, and operational chaosWhy listening to customers is your most underrated growth strategyThe mindset shift required to survive and rebuildChapters00:00 Welcome to BizNinja02:40 Matt's Early Entrepreneurial Roots06:30 Launching Cookie Co During COVID10:00 The Leap Into Franchising15:50 Inflation Hits and the Real Struggles Begin19:05 Strategic Partnership Turns Hostile23:10 The Power of Pivoting and Listening to Customers27:20 Business as a Vehicle for Life

This process is especially going to be hard for lifestyle companies , where the owners live from their businesses.

WENDY GROUNDS: Welcome to Manage This, the podcast by project managers for project managers. This is our opportunity to meet with you and talk about issues that project managers are facing today. I am Wendy Grounds, and with me in the studio is Bill Yates. So today we're talking in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis, businesses are starting to think about the post-crisis situation. For some organizations it's really been near-term survival is what's on the agenda. BILL YATES: Right. I agree, Wendy. There are so many companies that are just fighting to stay in business right now. I'm a part of a CEO roundtable, and just seeing the impact that this is having on people locally and globally is huge, I think. I just saw some statistics today. Now, just to let listeners know, this is May the 4th. And so far 30 million people in the United States have filed for unemployment, just since the COVID-19 got really serious in March, up until today. We're here in the Atlanta, Georgia area. So just for our state of Georgia, one in four workers have filed for unemployment. WENDY GROUNDS: Unbelievable. BILL YATES: So it's huge. And obviously our federal government is taking great steps to help fight through the economic impact of this as we all figure out what does the new normal look like. So just thinking about what is business going to look like when we can get going again. So I think it's helpful for us to have this conversation, and we're fortunate to have Mike Goss here to talk through some of this with us. Meet Mike WENDY GROUNDS: He was telling us that his career has taken more twists and turns than most. BILL YATES: Yeah. So he started out as a stereo equipment salesman. WENDY GROUNDS: And a computer store owner. BILL YATES: An elevator salesman. WENDY GROUNDS: And then he became a software developer. BILL YATES: Senior VP at a bank. WENDY GROUNDS: And the author of “Breaking Through Walls,” a business novel about overcoming life's obstacles. BILL YATES: And then a college instructor. WENDY GROUNDS: And then a radio personality. BILL YATES: And of course he fit a military career in there, as well. He's a veteran in the U.S. Air Force, serving in Thailand during the Vietnam War. WENDY GROUNDS: He has been on a podcast before with us, and he tells us more about that in his previous episode. Since 2014, Mike has also taught PMP exam prep boot camps in Oregon, Washington, and South Carolina. BILL YATES: Quite a diverse, I'd say, yeah, he is definitely shaking the tree.
