Hi all! 

Exciting news!  We have been nominated as one of the top three finalist in the food & beverage category in Daily Candy's Start Small GO BIG contest! 

We are normally not competitive at all... but let the games begin! We are competing against some really cool food companies and are pretty behind right now! :)

If you would like to VOTE for us, please click HERE.   We need your vote every day for the next 22 days! (I know that is asking a lot!)

To vote, click on our QP image. (a pink box appears around our pic.) Then scroll down to the bottom of the page and click the pink, "vote now" button! 

SHIPPING NEWS:  We have been boxing up for the past two weeks and I am happy to tell you that the $15, $35, and $75 pledges will go out early next week!  We are still waiting on t-shirts and KOOZIES so all of those will follow as soon as we get them in! 

Thanks again for making Quinn Popcorn a reality!  We could not have done any of this without your constant support!  

Talk soon, 

Kristy & Coulter

Quinn Popcorn Surveys!

Update #12 · Aug 13, 2011 · 3 comments

Hello Quinn Popcorn Backers! 

We just sent out surveys so when you have a second, please fill them out and send them back to us so we can get the show on the road! 

We started packaging this weekend and won't stop until we get all of the boxes filled, sealed, and ready to ship! We will most likely get these shipped out the first week of September, but will keep you updated! 

We can't believe we have a final product!  Will send photos shortly, but you can also visit our blog to see what we have been up to! 

Enjoy your weekends, and thanks again for the ridiculous amount of support and encouragement!

One More Kickstarter Day

Update #10 · Aug 8, 2011 · 3 comments

Hello! 

It's been 29 days. That doesn't seem possible but it has. Now there are only 24 hours left until we get off this euphoric wave called Kickstarter.

These are exciting times. We received more love than we could have ever expected from Kickstarter. We have literally thousands of pounds of popcorn, neatly packaged in our own bags, waiting in our warehouse. In a few days we will be stuffing, sealing, and packing boxes. These are the good old days.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us so far and to everyone who helped spread the word!   

Talk soon, 

Kristy & Coulter

PS. We are looking forward to posting more updates and will also be in touch to gather t-shirt sizes and flavor requests!   

Also, take a look below to see what you guys have done! Pretty cool!

2 Days Left and Popcorn In Hand!

Update #9 · Aug 7, 2011 · 3 comments

Thanks to you guys, we were able to give our organic corn supplier and packer the green light, and we received our first shipment a few days ago.  It came in the form of two pallets neatly packed with 12,000 filled Pure-Pop bags. 

It's incredibly exciting to see our popcorn coming to life. At the same time we are bummed to see our Kickstarter countdown has moved from days to hours. Connecting to all of you has been incredible and I can't believe it's been almost 30 days already!

So, on Tuesday night our Kickstarter project will be complete. Hopefully even more people find our project in the next few days. It's always nice to retire on a good note!

Thank you all!
