Show Notes

Meet the dynamic duo behind Alumni Cookie Dough, Mike and Jennifer Dollander! Jennifer's lifelong love for cookie dough inspired this sweet venture. As proud graduates of The University of Georgia, they're thrilled to bring this dream to Athens.

In 2018, Jennifer and her daughter, Stephanie, embarked on a memorable trip to NYC, discovering a heavenly cookie dough spot. That moment sparked the idea – 'Athens needs one of these!' The entrepreneurial bug bit them, and Athens became the perfect canvas for their cookie dough café dream.

In this episode Jennifer and Mike describe how speed of implementation helped them turn this idea into a reality. They share tips on getting through the toughest times as entrepreneurs and how they grew a successful model to start franchising in 2020. 

Life's short, eat the dough! #CookieDoughDreamers #AlumniCookieDough
