Hello Blogosphere and CICR fans,
I would like to tell you about one of the great honors that we receive by working here at Camano Island Coffee. These are really just little incentives that remind us people appreciate what we are a part of.
From time to time we receive testimonials from customers that go above and beyond anything we could ask for. Testimonials, comments, and YOUR input are part of the life blood of this company that keep up growing.
Many times it is a customer’s testimonial which creates a raised awareness of what we stand for — ethical coffee, and brings others to CICR and the Coffee Lover’s Club. I imagine that many of you reading this found out about CICR as a result of a friend or family member telling you about us (and our socially responsible, mission based business that they purchase their ethical coffee from).
Recently, we received the following testimonial from a valued customer, which we initially met through a business relationship. They forwarded our August Newsletter along with this note to a big group of their friends and family: (Thanks!)
“We became acquainted with Camano Island Coffee Roasters several years ago as a business associate. Last year we joined their club and have enjoyed the most exquisite coffees that we have ever tasted. We especially enjoy their PAPUA NEW GUINEA MEDIUM ROAST after having gone on their coffee tour. Their coffees are all “organic”. We have set five weeks between shipments, and one can set a schedule for shipments, and then call and change shipment dates, or just call or email when you want a shipment. They send three one pound bags, prepaid at $29.99 (or so) and you will find 40% less acid. “Regular” will even let you sleep at night.”
“This Company ships, does business around the world, being involved in other products other than coffee. Give Cristy a call at 360.387.7493, or email them at “customercare@camanoislandcoffee.com“. Give them a try. You will become addicted to their coffees. I know we did. NOTE: We are just their friends, not their sales agent.”
We consider it a great privilege to have a customer base that believes in our ethical coffee so strongly that they would share messages like this with others. (sorry only one of you made it to the blog!) We appreciate each of you and your dedication to the third-world coffee growers and their families, as well as your dedication to our company.
Remember, telling your friends about us has wonderful potential for you as well. For every friend you have signup for the Coffee Lover’s Club we’ll give you a free pound of coffee! It pays to share the best coffee in the world.
Our business exists because of customers like you.Thank you for your support!
Matt – CICR
