Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.
Hello, my name is TJ Clark and I am the co-founder of Healthy Chew: a weekly meal preparation service. My company is approaching it’s 6th year in business, which is crazy to think back on all of the awesome things we have accomplished.
Our products are simple, portioned, pre-cooked meals, that are made fresh weekly and sold inside of black bowls. We sell these to a variety of people. Some are looking to lose weight, others are looking for a wide variety of options that change every week, and some people are simply looking for food that is less processed since our meals are never frozen and don't require preservatives.
As we are a weekly service, our revenue fluctuates based on the times of the year. New years, we sell anywhere from $13,000-$20,000 a week, spring we average $12,000-15,000 in weekly sales. Summer averages around $12,000 a week, and October-December people go out of town more often and sales are roughly $4,000-12,000 a week (it varies widely). But thankfully, they always come back to shed the holiday weight usually the first 2 weeks of January.
