Letter: Customer appreciation in January

By Amber Simon
Buckeye East Coffee Shop

We so appreciate our customers, especially during the month of January.

The three J’s are a known struggle for those in retail and small town businesses: January, June and July.

This tracks for the small businesses in Ada. We rely heavily on the college community. And with the college off for winter break until the end of January, it can be tough.

However, I want to thank our locals for pushing in last week. As we were still slow, we have climbed from the previous years. We are still in a season of growth and we know that is due to locals supporting us and sharing about us with friends and family.
