Kellie has always been passionate about baking and bringing joy into people’s lives. In 2010, she decided to share her gift with couples everywhere by opening Fancy That Cake. Her business saw so much support that in 2021 Fancy That Cake made the move to full time weddings only.
Kellie ensures that every single cake that goes through her front door is made to perfection. With so much time and energy being put into her craft, it is very difficult to find time for other business priorities. This includes, marketing, content creation, working on her website, and customer relationship management. While networking with other entrepreneurs, the solution to her problem appeared; the Digital Transformation Grant 4.0 from Digital Main Street.
Looking to apply for her $2500, Kellie hit a snag with not having a brick-and-mortar store. However, with the help of the knowledgeable Digital Main Street team, she was informed that she was eligible for the grant because she pays commercial property taxes on her home-based cake studio.
The $2500 Digital Transformation Grant was used to have new product photos done to showcase Kellie’s masterful work. It also funded the creation of a professional 20 second video loop encompassing all that Fancy That Cake has to offer. Finally, Kellie contracted Honeybook Pro to set up her CRM system that is now being used to its full potential.
Since her time working with Digital Main Street, the professional photos and videos have been implemented on Fancy That Cake’s social media pages and website. The response to her new look content has been extremely positive, resulting in a major uptick in activity across platforms. Also, the Honeybook CRM process is now working smoothly. All of this automation has freed up a great deal of time for Kellie to focus on what matters most in her business; creating the perfect wedding cake for your special day.
So, if you or someone you love is stressed out about their seemingly endless wedding to-do list, end your cake studio search right now by contacting Fancy That Cake to get an Elegant Cake for the Modern Couple.
