Rising Stars: Meet Ashlee Starr-anderson of Clearfield

Today we’d like to introduce you to Ashlee Starr-anderson

Hi Ashlee, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Salty Rock Beverage CO. originally started as a mobile bartender business. We attended our first farmers market and provided lemonade to advertise our mobile beverage services and fell in love with the small business community. We then decided to go a different route with our mobile beverage services and not only focus on bartending services, but to be apart of community events such as farmers markets, pop ups, grand openings, while still offering catering options for private events. Within the first year of starting our business we got the opportunity to showcase our services on FOX13 THE PLACE by standing out with the quality in our handcrafted beverages and our exceptional customer service. We love that along the way of our business expanding we have met some of the best people and made the best of friends in the small business community. We make it a priority to give back to our community, one of our mottos we live by is “community over competition.”

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Starting a brand new small business with no knowledge or experience when it came to operating one definitely came with it’s own struggles. We are extremely grateful for how far we have gotten in this journey and continue to learn along the way.

While working our full time day jobs, attending school, being parents to 2 young children, also running this successful small business we tend to feel like we are constantly on the go and never have time to sit down or think. We always joke and say that our markets are the new date nights. At the end of the day we always say to each other “when we first started this business we dreamed of Salty Rock being this busy.”

As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
Salty Rock Beverage CO. is known for a couple of great reasons but the top ones are the positive impact we’ve made in the community, our signature mixes, the “cup flip”, and the way we as a crew and small business make people feel when they visit us.

What matters most to you? Why?
Customer service and quality. Our favorite is when people come back and they mention all of the great feedback or when we apologize for waiting in the long line and thank them for their patience, we always get “your guys’ drinks are worth the wait, see you next week.” It really gives us the warm and fuzzies. We love seeing repeating customers at different events and mentioning they came to the event because we were there.
