The following tips are about how to sell lemonade, a "chore" that many guys do to supplement during the summer.
Steps
Step 1. Make sure your lemonade is fresh and tastes good
Enhance your presentation with wedges in the carafe.
Step 2. Place the table near the road
Be sure to stop at a safe distance, though. Leave enough space for a couple of adults and a stroller to comfortably pass between the kiosk and the street.
Step 3. Be seen from the street
Decorate the kiosk with bright colors, balloons and signs. An umbrella will keep the sun at bay and will be an additional signal to potential customers.
Step 4. Don't forget the variety
It arouses interest by constantly changing the offer. Offer drinks, teas, water, smoothies and more, but with simplicity. Offer lemonade and just one other choice every day. Other options include lime juice, orange soda, and popsicles.
Step 5. Ask for € 1 per glass
Step 6. Offer a second round
It is optional. You can offer it for free or at half price.
Step 7. Color your kiosk
Build signs to hold and wave, and add a sign to the kiosk. A banner is also a good idea, but don't overdo it with clutter. It's best to have a lot of small options and change every day.
Step 8. Make sure you have the exact change
Set aside a glass full of 20-50 cent coins, just in case. Everything should be multiple of 20-50 cents.
Advice
- Do not leave the kiosk unattended.
- If there are a lot of dogs in the neighborhood, have water and treats on hand.
Warnings
- Check your local laws to make sure you don't need special licenses.
- Be careful not to position yourself on too busy streets, or your kiosk risks being targeted for lack of a license.
