Let's see.. what have I learned this week... that is always the reason for these posts... but sometimes I like to write more than what have I learned this week... sometimes I like to write about the interesting things that have happened this week... I know I am supposed to be writing about both of these things... together.. so here we go... I might actually get this right this week... lol... we shall see.
I have definitely settled on the company name Black Market Brownies... I just love the name... mysterious and mystic... I had someone ask via class... what is the secret ingredient... I honestly don't have an answer for that... it could be anything you want it to be... it could be chunks of chocolate, it could be hershey's kisses, it could be m&m's (although I don't like that idea... ickkkkkk..) it will NOT be marijuana, or ex-lax... as has been done in the past... that is just mean and wrong.... the customer tells me what they want the secret extra ingredient to be... it might be vanilla chips... who knows... I will make up a list of ingredients to choose from and you decide. I am going to ask lots of people what they would like in brownies and see what their opinions are and create the list. I have learned that marketing is very important to getting the products and or services off the ground. I have also learned that suggestive selling is a great tool to use for companies to make more money. I used to do this when I worked for McDonald's and Wal*Mart. You also need to have a good elevator pitch for your potential investors. They need to know what your product or service is and what it is all about. This week has been good for me and learning more about how to get a business going.
