Today we are talking about scaling and transitions with the founder of Indie Coffee Roasters, Alec Tod! 

Founded in 2013 with a home roaster on his back patio, the business has undergone several stages of change and growth over the years to get them to where they are today in their new retail / roasting facility serving the people of Indianapolis, IN.

Today we are not only hearing the story of Indie Coffee Roasters but we are focusing on life in the transition points. What was it like to scale the business and what was the impact it had on the relationships of those in charge of the business.

It has been 7 years of pretty constant growth and change and Alec lays out what contributed to their success in navigating these inflection points behind the scenes.

Some of the things you will learn:

  • The role a solid vision plays in helping guide growth
  • Finding great partners
  • The benefit of taking on investor/partners
  • How to  decide what to buy and where to change
  • Being comfortable with role displacement
  • Learning to not let the business run you
  • Avoiding burn-out
