Wow… I didn’t intentionally choose this particular timing to write this post but. Haha…! Hello, world! Not the best way to start the ball rolling here but I’ve been feeling rather frustrated cooped up in my little cubicle trying to make this new website work. It’s been a few days of working round the clock on this and as a result not being able to carry on churning new batches of ice creams or making new waffles. Not exactly a very good way of starting the new year working full time on this business I know. But what’s needed to be done needs to be done I guess!
Not sure if anyone would actually backdate and read this post… but yep, hello if you’re here reading! 🙂 Ketojiak’s Chief Churning Officer Galvin here! Trying really hard to get this website to be decent! Haha! One of the days where I really wish I have a team behind me… hopefully we’ll get there eventually! But for now, yep, just as it has been a one man show the past years since Ketojiak’s inception, it shall still be in this very exciting yet scary new season!
In case anyone here thinks that I’ve taken the plunge to go full time in this business because I’ve seen the money making potential of it through the past three years of operating it as a passion project and side hustle, let me dispel it here once and for all – nope. I definitely was earning much more from my then day job versus if I were to do Ketojiak full time, taking into consideration also the amount of labour needed.
But this is one of the times where passion triumphs over all. I am crossing my fingers and praying really hard that all the stresses and craziness of operating a full time business wouldn’t douse out this fire too quickly wahahahaha…!
But yes. I’ve been most gratified whenever I receive feedback from customers that they’re thankful for Ketojiak’s existence, that their children, parents and they themselves are once again able to enjoy quality ice creams and waffles despite their existing diabetic or inflammatory conditions. And with Singapore’s ongoing fight against diabetes, I feel that Ketojiak stands a good chance in joining in the fight and helping more realise that ice creams and waffles do not need sugar or loads of carbohydrates to be satisfying.
So… yup. Shall see how this goes. Better head back to making sure this website can see the day of light soon. 😛 Till then!
