In This Episode:  

  • Courtney was a teacher and feeling a bit burned out, and after making 4 or 5 charcuterie, she thought she should start a business!
  • She took some pictures, started an Instagram, and said she was now serving the Triangle. Then it blew up!
  • She quickly went from an idea to storefronts with 11 employees, and we talk about the messy middle.
  • Right at the beginning of her new business, when it just started picking up... COVID hit.
  • They did a Kickstarter campaign to get the commercial kitchen necessary for a charcuterie business.
  • Their vision is to become a staple in Raleigh for appetizer catering. 
  • She speaks candidly about the challenges of opening the second store. Courtney gives a response that we have never heard before on our show.
  • Courtney talks about how great her husband has been through this process, her number one supporter and cheerleader.
  • Raleigh Cheesy was created behind the idea that life is worth living to the fullest. 
  • We talk about raising kids as an entrepreneur and how it helps kids become adaptable.
  • We talked about her current charcuterie boards and her dreams for the future if cost were no option for luxury meats.
