From Factory Floors to Coffee Pour: How Jordy Built a Buzz with Jordy's Coffee Corner
In this episode of the Small Business Squad, we're joined by Jordy Wiegand, the energetic owner of Jordy’s Coffee Corner in Spencer, Indiana. What started as a dream inspired by coffee shacks in Alaska has quickly become a beloved local staple—serving not only top-tier coffee but also laughs and loyalty.
Jordy shares how he went from working in utilities and factories to running a one-person mobile coffee business, complete with hilarious marketing videos and community-driven success. We dive into lessons learned, unexpected challenges, favorite drinks (spoiler: it’s not light roast), and the importance of local support.
Whether you're thinking of launching a food truck, dreaming of your own shop, or just need a caffeine kick and a laugh, this episode is packed with real talk, useful insights, and entrepreneurial inspiration.
