The Effects of Devotional Chef Seasonings

The following is written by Devotional Chef VP Business Development Ron Graham, who previously posted it on his blog.

This guy had just given Devotional Chef Seasonings a taste-test when the photo was taken. You can see a jar of the Chef’s “Zesty Meat Blend” in his hand. The reaction is typical. The word in his mouth is “WOW!”

From my perspective, having the physical product in hand makes the formation of a business seem oh, so real. It’s true the Devotional Chef’s Cookbook has been completed in draft form for some time now, and I have the PDF, but having a PDF on your computer is not the same thing as holding a real, physical product – one which, in this case, has texture and, more importantly, flavor. LOL

From the perspective of someone involved in business development, the sample gives potential customers and investors the chance to experience the same reality that I (and the guy in the photo) have experienced for ourselves.

I’m willing to travel to any location between Philly and NYC to show this stuff off. I’ll even pay for the coffee of those willing to meet me. That’s what having something physical will do for an entrepreneur: it adds to the energy, and to the generosity. Just don’t expect me to cook: Rev. Lacy is the Chef, not me. LOL
