Sideyard Subscription Prices & Payments Update ☕️ Please Read ☕️
Hi Sideyard Friends,
Last summer we launched Sideyard Coffee with some simple goals in mind: roast delicious coffee, share what we’ve learned, and deliver it (by bike) to friends and neighbors at a great value. Hopefully all of this rings true to you, even as we share the news of a price bump. This price adjustment helps us accomplish three things: 1) keep up with increases in the cost of green coffee, 2) more carefully value our own labor, and 3) experiment with new subscription options. Starting in November, the pricing tiers will be as follows:
8 oz - $10.00/week
12 oz - $14.00/week
16 oz - $17.00/week
24 oz - $25.00/week
These prices reflect a 13% to 25% price increase (depending on bag size), and continue to include stepped quantity discounts. Not that it's a competition, but at $14 for a 12oz bag, we’re still at the low end of the price spectrum for locally roasted single-origin coffee.
Speaking of payments… also starting in November we’re moving all recurring payments to a subscription system using Stripe. This will streamline things on our end and hopefully save us all a few minutes and a few emails at the top of every month. :)
Getting started on the new system promises to be quite straight forward. You’ll receive a subscription invoice from us at the end of October for November coffee. Once you’ve paid that, you’ll get end of the month reminders that your payment is scheduled to be automatically charged for the upcoming month’s subscription. If you want to suspend your subscription at any time just let us know and we’ll make sure you stop getting charged.
Last but not least, we’re working on plans for a garage/roastery open house sometime in October! Details TBA. In the meantime, thanks as always for your support and please keep in touch!
Cheers,
Ryan & Michael
dark roast, anyone?
