You forget that he also had $68 000 to get the business off the ground right off the bat. Some people don't have that kind of money to invest in a business and/or are too afraid to do so. It was definitely more than just "a canva marketing template" that made this business successful lol.

Truthfully, that is what I am worried about with them. I don't know if you heard of this place called Sift Dessert Bar. They are a cupcake dessert place. I saw they opened quite a few places around my city/state. I saw some of the places close completely. I think it was because they expanded too fast. People got sick of the cupcakes. There was also Krispy Kreme too. They had expanded too rapidly in which case was going to lead to bankruptcy. They did close some stores though.

I am a type 1 diabetic. I am usually able to eat a cookie once in a while. Cookies the same size as crumbls should be between 30-45 carbs in total. 1 FOURTH of a crumbl cookie has around 32 carbs? (key lime). That’s absolutely crazy. Not a good idea unless you wanna ruin your diet with a “cookie”

I went to crumbl once and bought 6 cookies (and they aren't cheap!), I wanted to share one with my brother since he worked across the street and didn't want to break it in half myself and touch it since my hands were dirty. I asked them if they could just cut it in half for me and they said I could buy this $10 cookie knife to cut it, but they couldn't. After spending almost $30 on cookies, you cant cut one for me?!

Because cost of doing business is so high. The average profit margin for your local store is only about 10%. So for a $5 cookie the store only makes 50 cents. Be kind and understand it’s not easy to be a small business owner. Many of them don’t survive due to razor thin margins.

Almost every single one of my coworkers by the end of their shifts complained of knee and feet pain for standing in one place for so long.

Most CNBC Make It videos appear to just be infomercials rather than realistic documentaries. The revenue is $1bill, but does that include the rev of the franchise locations, or is it just the core brand? What are your costs and net profit? There are tons of brands with more stores and more rev, but zero or negative profits. The info in this video isn't very helpful.

I bought four cookies. One of them was STILL FROZEN. Cookie dough should not be eaten raw because flour has a certain amount of bacteria from insect and rodent contamination allowable by law.

Yep, franchising most likely, not all cookies and recipes are going to be the same as intended. There will be variation of quality throughout different locations. It'll cost them in the long run.

I was excited when Crumbl opened near my workplace. Turns out - I don't visit that much. The cookies are extremely sweet and lack depth of true flavor. You want big cookies done right? Gideon's Bakehouse is better. Oh and they don't use box cake mix like Crumbl does (aka shortcuts). Even Costco has a better chocolate chip cookie.

Yep 100%. I’ve been saying this for a year or two now. No way they can franchise this fast and it won’t fall apart. Sure they were popular on TikTok for a while and still have waves of that popularity, but it’s dying down, the stores are ALWAYS empty with no customers (even tho it’s grab and go but still), and the product quality sucks (flavors are boring and don’t have enough variety each week, and all the flavors they do are just reusing doughs and mixins to keep costs low). They would’ve been better off with short term rentals/pop ups

I went into a Crumbl cookie store once and it was one of the most depressing things I’d ever seen. All the workers were forced to yell “welcome to Crumbl” as soon as I walked through the door. I went back to get something from my car, and was greeted again with “welcome to Crumbl” as if it were some painful reflex for the workers.

Chip was not the first Utah cookie business. There have been MANY but none of them have been able to thrive like Crumbl - it's not even a competition. They also have way more creative flavors and a much more consistent experience across locations. Unless we dive into the sugar cookie trend at all the local soda shop chains.
