That said, it is unlikely Grackle customers are buying Coffee
Mate, which means you probably won’t read this. Hmm. Well,
anyhow, this is lame and hate it and we promise not to
attempt to monetize your memories of slightly cheesy space
westerns or any other pop culture items. Unless they suck.
Scrappy Do, we’re looking at you.

This just in: graph still ahead of you headline
headline
Last
time we put a graph ahead of the headline we were worried about the format police, but
we got so little negative feedback that we decided to leave it as-is again this time. Well, ok,
we got no feedback at all, but since no news is good news in the notoriously finicky Social
Media environment we now live in we are running with it. Plus, you know, it was already
sitting here ready to go.
Oh hey, sales were awesome this year! Thanks, you! Other than June, August, and October,
which were pretty close to last year. Let’s see how 2016 goes, but that’s pretty awesome.
Ok, back to what passes for normal around here
Profit, of the gross variety.
Previous trivia of dubious
quality has been replaced
with various pieces of
Internet “news”. Still of
dubious quality.

So the good news is that the numbers are still good, which means better than last year.
The bad news is that because this isn’t net profit we have to take what we pay our good
people and assorted other costs out of here, so this is mostly here to show that things are
continuing to look good.
We are also continuing to plan for 2016 as we’d like to bring some new stuff and keep it
fresh, you know? We’re going to do something exciting with the patio and we have lots of
things we’d like to try for either the first time (Movie night? Coffee tastings? Wine
tasting?) or do again (Cars and coffee? Coffee at events? More grocery type products?)
so keep your eyes peeled, and if you have ideas for something we could do, tell us!
For reals though - thanks again for all the support in 2015.

About Our Organization…
The Grackle Management Team is made up of driven, clever and good-looking
residents of Schomberg. We squeezed in some graphs again this issue, of course. We
regularly meet at Port Soiree, in the rooms where women come and go and talk of
Michelangelo, and if you haven’t been there, you should. Meetings over Mexican food
from Mexicanada in Bradford, Mono Cliffs Inn, or Port Soiree are also sometimes
required. This quarter our reporting is running pretty well completely late, but don’t
freak out. There’s still not much you can do about it so hopefully you took our advice
and learned to like it.
