2. Company Description “Eat Local” is a movement that uses strategic partnerships and places its members in direct contact with their target market(s). The movement shifts/redistributes market share from corporations to small and medium-owned business (smb) and minority and women owned business (mwbe), allowing members to benefit from superior visibility and market penetration at a significantly lower cost than other alternatives.

3. Mission Statement This company is a movement that encourages the community to endorse and patronize locally owned and operated businesses and franchises; leveraging various avenues of awareness and strategic partnerships.

4. About Me I graduated in 2001 from the University of Houston – Downtown with a business degree in general business. I returned to school to earn my teaching certification and taught 6th Grade Math in Alief, TX, then Cy-Fair ISD. My twins were born in 2006. That’s when I started my current adventure as “work-at-home” mom. With the economy in the state that it was in 2008, we started brainstorming ways to make some supplemental income while I could still stay at home. Enter the creation on EatCypress.com

5. What We Are About With the idea of answering the question “where is there to eat around here?” We started EatCypress.com in 2008 as a place for the community to support locally-owned-and-operated businesses and franchises in the Cypress area. We’ve had a great response from the community and our clients. People love to go local!

6. Potential Licensees This business will work for someone willing to create relationships with local businesses. Relationships take work. You have to be willing to cold call and follow-up (so confidence and organization is essential for success). We won’t promise that it will be easy, but we will say it will be worth it!
