Synopsis

Blake Thomas, the founder of Tiny House Coffee Roasters, was one of my first contacts in Austin, Texas and I had a lot of fun getting to know him and drinking his coffee every day when I was working at WeWork. Blake’s story is super impressive and he works really hard at his job. Learn how Blake jumped on board selling coffee during the end of his Peace Corps stint and how he built up a nice little coffee company in Austin. One of the biggest growth opportunities that Blake was able to get was working with the regional team at WeWork to supply his coffee into their offices. The business relationship was so good, that Blake was able to open a coffee shop at a WeWork location on Barton Springs Road. We also get Blake’s perspective on how he’s handling on the pandemic and it’s really tough, but Blake is using his time wisely by innovating new drinks so he can adapt in trying times. The good news, is that this isn’t the first time Blake had to innovate on the fly. Show Notes How did you start Tinyhouse?: Through
