Snack Shack Business Report

Great Essays
Snack Shack Business Report Snack Shack was a lot of fun! Since the summer of 2015, I was planning what to do for Snack Shack. When we figured out our partners, I talked to Aleah about doing Root Beer Floats and Popcorn. During the Snack Shack lottery, both of those things were taken before our number was called. We ended up with lemonade and soft pretzels. I wasn’t that happy about it because I had already started to plan for Root Beer Floats and Popcorn. So, I started over and started to count the costs. It took about an hour to get a general list of all that we needed to get, and then we went to work. I got all of the decorations which included tablecloths, flowers, vases, and marbles. I did all the work on the posters except for a small coloring section at the top of one poster. I also bought plates and napkins from my parents. Aleah went out and got the pretzels, lemonade, cheese, cups, butter, and change. The morning of Snack Shack, Aleah and I arrived at 7:30 to start setting up our booth. She had brought some lights for the front of our booth which really set it off! We put up our posters, got the decorations set up and got the cheese going …show more content…
If we had a separator, it would have been easier to get people’s change back faster. It would’ve been easier to count the money in the end as well.

A little girl came up to me and asked it fifty cents was enough for lemonade. I really wanted to say yes, but if I said yes to her I would have to say yes to everyone. So I really would’ve wanted to make that

    After the quality of the food is considered, the next logical thing to look at is how it is being served. The service is another important factor when eating out because it sets the stage of how the meal will go. If the employees are rude or disrespectful it will ruin the rest of the night because even after the issue is solved the customer will still be fuming after the encounter. On the other hand if the service is wonderful the customer can then focus on the quality of the food. It is already clear that Chick-fil-A’s food is excellent, so it is important to analyze their service to see if it is up to par with similar restaurants and if it is unique.…

    Of course, I did not eat because you can get food (fish taco, street tacos, menudo, barbacoa) and aqua Fresca’s (most being a fruit drink), listen to live music, shop for just about anything you can think of (New and Used). For the children there were pony rides and small animal petting area (calf, sheep and piglets). A place you go on the weekend and spend the day with your friends and family. The first mistake I made was assuming (preconceived idea), which as a counselor is something one should never do.
