I'd reformulate with the tallow. Ive been doing either tallow or butter (not shelf stable) bites for myself for about 2 years. No problems at all, and tallow over here is significantly cheaper
I too is feeling the crunch I work in a cocoa butter Warehouse in New Jersey it's been real slow this year no overtime keep up the good work it all works out in the end
Don't stress it. Do what you need to keep floating. Even Chris and Miriam had to start charging for shipping for orders under $100. Take care of you and yours 💜
Go ahead and charge some shipping brother!! Even something like a $5 across the board flat rate shipping option is still very reasonable and can help on your end. Just my two cents!! Stay strong love your products 💪
A beef tallow based brick sounds quite enticing. Anything that's more animal based would be ideal from a nutritional standpoint. Perhaps making a bag of mini bricks could also help work thru the lack of ingredients. Keep the price the same and get a bag of mini bricks that are 100 calories each, with 7-8 bars in the bag. Just a thought.
Robert do whatever you have to do! As I’ve always told you, I will support your business!!! You are such an upstanding business man and I’m sure you will figure things out and your loyal supporters are here for you!
Appreciate your open communication, thank you. Sounds like you all have a good handle on options and potential changes. Wishing you and your family and team a productive and peaceful week. Thanks so much for the super quick delivery of my latest order of bricks. Cheers Heather and John 🇨🇦
Brother, don't lose no sleep about it. I will keep eating my brick (or two) every day. Everything is going up, and we all know it. Besides, your brick is a 1000 calories of high-quality ingredients for very low cost. The math of calories per dollar makes your brick a superior product for a great price.
Even if you were to raise the prices just a bit and maybe add a small shipping cost. People would still be buying the bricks. These are great products with great ingredients. Everything is going up around us. I would still be buying them, if the price goes up. I pay for shipping on a ton of things i buy online. So i would not mind paying for shipping on these great tasting bricks.
