CHEESY!

KEEP IT

“Entrepreneurship is about the execution of the right ideas,” Mark Encke co-owner of Cheesy Stuffed Burgers

DREAM

Mark had the , but the Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at Linn-Benton had the blueprint. From its conception, Cheesy Stuffed Burgers was built alongside the SBDC every step of the way. Owned by husband and wife, Mark and Janice Encke, and long-time friend Devan Elkins, the Cheesy Stuffed trio has put lots of love into the creation of the food and friendships that nurtured its beginnings. Early iterations of Cheesy Stuffed offerings were in fact inspired by Janice’s cooking.

The SBDC is now helping Cheesy Stuffed in their next phase of business, consulting with franchise specialists. The trio feels their hands are full with the current locations they manage, but with a goal to still grow the business, franchising the brand is a natural next step.

“My 10-year plan is to be an SBDC advisor,” Mark said. “I feel like I was given a gift and I want to give it back in return. Cheesy Stuffed Burgers would never exist if it wasn’t for the SBDC at Linn-Benton Community College.”

“I don’t like big, bland burgers,” Mark said. “My wife started marinating burgers and stuffing them with cheese. It was flavorful and delicious and I thought ‘This is it!’” Today, that dream has grown from one food truck in Corvallis, to another in Albany, and as of May 2018, a downtown Corvallis storefront. Cheesy Stuffed Burgers is also an exclusive vendor at Reser Stadium, home of the OSU Beavers. The Cheesy Stuffed team has built everything in the span of six years. And Mark admits, to this day he still calls the SBDC before making big decisions. “I’m an opportunist, an entrepreneur, a nice guy – but I’m not that sophisticated,” Mark said. “that’s where my pals at the SBDC come in.”

The Cheesy Stuffed Burger team has gone from a single food cart to considering franchising options in the span of six years. And Mark admits, to this day he still calls the SBDC at Linn-Benton Community College before making any major decisions. LOOKING TO START A BUSINESS OR EXPAND ONE?

HISTORY ISHI: A CENTURY LATER “Ishi: A Century Later” looks at one of the most amazing native stories from the West. Near Chico, California, a small family group survived the extermination of their tribe in the 1860’s and hid for 40 years until only Ishi was left. We focus on his San Francisco years and what they reveal of his nature and his Yahi cultural/spiritual resources: the beliefs and practices that helped keep him sane, unbitter and kind. 33723 M TAYLOR,A
