SUCCESS THROUGH CHARITY: Lenny's Sub Shop owner credits networking, charity for growth in community

December 26, 2012CUMMING, Ga. — The success of Lenny's Sub Shops' two locations — Alpharetta and Cumming — have followed a formula that owner Bruce Longmore says he will continue to apply.

Give and network.

"The more we gave, the better our store did," Longmore said. "Other than networking and giving to charities, we haven't really marketed our business in any sizable way."

Longmore, 50, bought the existing Lenny's Sub Shop on Windward Parkway in Alpharetta five years ago. Six months later, he bought the Market Place Boulevard location in Cumming.

He was glad he did.

When he bought the Cumming location, it was doing about $12,000 a week in revenue. Now they regularly bring in $21,000 and more per week.
