Stan and Eileen from Ramstead Ranch in Washington State sit down with host John Haskell to discuss the challenges of scaling a direct-to-consumer business, particularly in fulfillment.

 

In part 1 of this conversation, they share how, after doubling their budget for paid advertising, they increased sales from $600,000 to $1.2 million within a year, leading to a fulfillment bottleneck. Faced with team members struggling to keep up with orders, they implemented Scrum, an agile operating system, to streamline their processes. This led to a significant reduction in work hours while maintaining an increased order volume, demonstrating the effectiveness of Scrum in improving efficiency and team collaboration.



In this episode, Business Processes with the Ramsteads, Part 1, we cover: 

  • The impact of paid advertising and the significant fulfillment challenge it created

  • Shifting and improving their fulfillment process to keep up with increased sales

  • Introducing the Scrum system to their C-Suite and fulfillment center

  • How Scrum has affected their efficiency and ensures continuous improvement


Meet Stan Hayes, Co-Founder & CEO of Ramstead Ranch:

Ramstead Ranch was born out of a desire to feed ourselves healthy food from animals and land that had been treated with kindness and respect. It’s been an exciting process to help unfold. I bring my background in construction and business acumen to the team, and I work to learn new ways to apply myself on the ranch every day. It’s an ever-changing landscape, and I enjoy the work.


Meet Eileen Napier, Co-Founder & Head of Marketing of Ramstead Ranch:

It’s been my life-long passion to source food that’s good for my body and good for the planet. Building a working ranch from the ground up was once just a pipe dream, but it brings me immense joy to bring that dream to fruition. I’m grateful for the opportunity to connect like-minded animal lovers to the behind-the-scenes of ranch life and the impact that they are making on the land, animals, and their community when they choose to source their food from regenerative farms and ranches.
