Goody's World Famous Popcorn
              
Who knew something as small as popcorn could turn out to be such big business.  Owner Dave Goodwin knew he could transform popcorn from dull to something unique.

Working closely with SBDC Assistant Director, David Dickerson, the two crafted a business plan and financial projections that both satisfied a lender and laid out a path for future growth that Dave has traveled at full speed.

Opened in late 2011, Goody's World Famous popcorn has made popcorn famous locally. Gone are the days of the traditional divided tins with butter, cheese and caramel popcorn. Goody's treats customers to a variety of flavors including caramel mocha, cheesecake, piña colada, jalapeño ranch and even beer!

Dave and his staff have a knack for marketing and continue to surprise everyone with their efforts. From their successful partnership with Amarillo radio station KISS FM to their latest announcement that Goody's will be available at the Texas Rangers Ballpark, they've built a loyal following of customers who need their popcorn fix!

Health Care Spending
Health care is a hot topic with small business owners in Texas right now and whether you agree or disagree with the Supreme Court's recent ruling, it's up to us as responsible citizens to know the numbers and how this mandate will affect our state.

Texas State Comptroller, Susan Combs has kept a watchful eye on the mandate and predicts that if the health care reform proceeds as passed, Medicaid costs in Texas will increase to over 37% of the state's total budget. What does this shift in the budget mean for other items like public education and even funding for SBDCs? Read the full article to find out and learn more about the changes in store. 
Did you know...
In 1982, John DeLorean attempted to resurrect his failing DeLorean Motor Company by purchasing $1.8 million in cocaine that he planned to bring to the U.S. and sell for a quick $24 million profit.

In an effort to lower his turnover rate and increase production, Henry Ford began the unprecedented 40 hour work week that we now know today.
