Oak Barrel Ice & Creamery uses local ingredients to create artisan ice cream and other frozen delicacies. Greg Raynes is the owner/artisan.
Hope you're all ice and cream reed. We make our own ice cream in shop daily using a small batch process with locally sourced ingredients and a wide variety of flavors that I don'think anybody else can match at this point. Oak Barrel has had several challenges as any new business would. So I've been able to go to the SBDC and get expert help in h So it opens the door to all kinds of information that I could not afford as a small business owner. When Greg first contacted the SBDC he was looking for marketing help. And as we sat down and got to work one of the things we realized was he needed marketing but first he needed financial analysis. And what was really helpful was were able to bring in people, not just myself but other consultants to give him all the services that he needed as he went along. To this day, seven years later, when Greg has asked for assistance, we always have somebody there who can help him in his business to continue to grow, thrive and succeed.
