Today we’d like to introduce you to Leah Clark.
Leah, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
I have worked in the bakery business for several years now. Started with Great Harvest bread company in Houston. When I moved to Dallas I started at Nothing Bundt cakes and was with them for a few years. I always wanted to own my own bakery and with the help of my business partner and mentor Craig Moore we were able to open this store.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
Starting anything new it is stressful. New challenges to overcome, working with different people. Learning how to grow a brand that has very few stores nationwide has been difficult. But overall it has been an amazing experience I wouldn’t trade for anything.
Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about Buttermilk Sky Pie Shop – what should we know?
Buttermilk Sky Pie is a franchise based out of Knoxville Tennessee. We have five stores in the DFW area that are all individually owned. We specialize in scratch-made pies and thumbprint cookies. We bake fresh daily and make everything by hand. The quality of our product and over the top customer service is what sets us apart from the rest. We want to make sure each guest feels welcome the moment they walk in. We always have at least one flavor on sample but always suggest the guest try more flavors so that they leave with their absolute favorite.
Any shoutouts? Who else deserves credit in this story – who has played a meaningful role?
Craig Moore deserves all the credit! I would consider him to be a franchise expert. Before being a part of Buttermilk Sky Pie he was President of Nothing Bundt Cakes and before that he was President of Cicis Pizza. Every day I learn something new from him. He pushes us to be GREAT! I’m blessed to have him as a mentor and business partner.
