Highland Lakes Business

MARBLE FALLS — Marble Falls business owner Roy Massey offers a very straightforward strategy for personal and professional success.

"If you want to succeed, figure out what it will take to reach your goals," Massey said. "Then, set realistic timetables. The only way to achieve a goal is the old-fashioned way — work for it. If you fail — don’t blame others. Figure out what went wrong, correct it and move on."

Massey has owned Schlotzsky's Deli, 2410 U.S. 281, for 11 years.

"Our target customer is one who desires a quality-eating experience," Massey said. "Our customers normally put quality of food and service over price. Our business has seen consistent growth since 1999. Even with the present economic conditions, our business has remained solid. We consistently see the same customers on a regular basis, plus travelers that are passing through or staying for a visit."

Cooking up a new business

Cooking up a new business

BERTRAM — Former Burnet County Sheriff Joe Pollock laughed at the mention of a nickname some people once called him — Barbecue Joe.

“I thought it was funny at the time,” he said, sitting in a century-old building in Bertram. “And I still do.”

Pollock, who served as the county’s top lawman from 1992-2008, earned a reputation around the Highland Lakes not just for his police skills, but also for his barbecue.

Now sitting in his new restaurant — Tin Star Bar-B-Que, 110 Texas 29 — Pollock is happy with where he is in life.
