Tabatha Coffey visited Chill – a yogurt shop in Ventura, CA during Tabatha Takes Over episode 5. As soon as she went there, she realized Chill was making some very common business mistakes – no focus and no quality control.

Sande Cranford and Jim Wright had started Chill, because Sande loved yogurt. Her husband Jim runs a successful bar and Jim’s daughter – Shannon runs a successful pizza shop. So Sande decided to startup with a yogurt shop but her effort to turn her love of yogurt into a business failed miserably.

This is the second time that Tabatha visited a non-salon business during Tabatha Takes Over season 4. Earlier she had visited a gay club called Club Ripples in Long Beach during episode 2.

Tabatha realized that Chill’s products were low quality, their staff was unprofessional, and their business was unfocused. Moreover, owner Sande had no idea about the product beyond the fact that she enjoyed eating it. To make matters worse, Sande wasn’t in her business as much as she needed to be which gave her staff to do whatever they wanted at their will.

Thus, episode 5 of Tabatha Takes Over was all about helping Sande become a boss and help her to focus on selling fresh, homemade, delicious products since the frozen yogurt wasn’t working!

After talking to Shannon, Tabatha realized she made food products that tasted good and were of superior quality. Thus she suggested Sande to make Chill a coffee shop, which would offer fresh sandwiches and baked goods and do away with frozen yogurt. Not only did Sande agree to follow this suggestion but her staff was elated on this news.

If you watched episode 5 of Tabatha Takes Over you would have seen that Shannon is a trained pastry chef. Building on this asset, Sande and Jim have decided to turn Chill into a bakery where Shannon will be making all the baked goods.
