Community, Collaboration, Customer Service, and Creativity = A Recipe for Award Winning Donuts! - Johnny Chen

On this episode, we take a look at perseverance through the eyes of a business owner. We talk with Johnny Chen, who along with his wife, Boggie Otgonbayar, own Mr. D's Donut and Coffee Shop in Kansas City.  Originally an inherited business, Johnny and Boggie have built Mr. D's into  one of the top 100 donut shops in the country. Not only are they  focused on creating the best tasting and most creatively designed donuts you've ever seen, their heart is to collaborate with other local businesses, uplift the community's needs, take excellent care of their employees, and deliver top notch customer service.  Johnny shares with us the ups and downs of his business and how he and Boggie have survived difficult times.  You can read more about them at mrdsdonuts.com or follow them on Instagram:  @mrdscoffee and @mrdsdonutshop.  

Perseverance...the word usually has a negative connotation. On Profiles in Perseverance, Jackie Doyel and Dave Gilbert look at Perseverance in a positive light by interviewing people from all walks of life who have gone through difficult circumstances in life, persevered, and can now give hope to others. You'll enjoy this fun, witty, but real look at life and gain some inspiration from it!
