What is the best way to attract customers to an ice cream shop?
I just opened a small window service shop in a busy downtown location. I have our open flag and our open sign out. This is only my third day being open, but business is not going anywhere near the way I was hjoping it would. I know our prices are good. What can I do as a promotion or gimmick to get people to hand over their money. I think the problem is that people do not realize that we are here! I really want to make this work, as I have spent alot of money and will be spending alot of time on this. Any suggestions willbe appreciated. Thanks.

Free samples are an awesome idea.

Put helium balloons outside every day--they attract attention.

Make flyers and walk around to the businesses downtown. Introduce yourself and give out your flyers, which could maybe include a discount.

You might plan a grand opening with specials, giveaways, etc.

Write up a press release for your local newspaper.

forget the free samples outside...go to the local businesses nearby and bring them ice cream during their lunch hour. That way the businesses nearby know your there and after work the people can pick up some ice cream.

Announce, an Introductory Offer for first One Month,
or First (One) Week.

There after, you can have Ice cream festival at least on Saturdays and Sundays (i.e., 104 Festivals) with a variety of Ice Cream. In addition Major Festival Celebrations!

I would say give out FREE samples. Let them take a poll and hear about the icecream flavors they like to eat the most. Make the store look attractive, as well as the icecream. People eat with their eyes first. SO THAT IS VERY IMPORTAINT. Take Patience. Good Luck!


Whoever_U_Are
try to put coupons in your daily newspaper, attract customers by having a buy 1 get 1 free deal during your first days. dont worry that you arent getting any customers right now because like u said, not many people know you r there. personally spread the word around about ur new shop.

free samples, outdoor eating arrangments, music, games, and one odd word: "bogo" (buy one, get one).

also try Craig's List, . you could also put coupons in the mail or in places around town.

and maybe a neon sign, and a carpet extending from the sidewalk to the (open) door. also, try letting people create their own ice cream dish, then letting them name it, and then you put it on the menu (just make sure that you have ALOT of flavours and toppings so people can match what they want to make something)

um mm no i would necessarily give free samples just yet until you try promoting it post flyers every where possible but you have to make them huge CREATIVE AND COLORFUL maybe neon LIKE PRO.you have to think of creative ides the people will like like maybe let them create thair own ice cream hey why not even make a logo and catchy saying send some of your workers to different parts of the downtown maybe you can rent some costumes and make tham hold BIG signs and then if you think it's worth IT send some workers into the stores and parks etc. to hand out samples maybe you can take polls and ask what they the costumers think you should do to get more attention. and then thank them and say thay were very helpfull!

Hi,

Great post. It's not easy to open a small business. Most small business fail (statistically). I lost a lot of money trying to open a website.

I was really down about losing my money when a friend introduced me to a really cool way to get started on the web. There's a company that matches companies selling products with people that want to promote the products (the name of the company is Keep Clicking). I joined for free (actualy, they paid me $10, but I didn't get that until I had $50 in my account which took me about a month).

Most of the products I promote are free trial offers (it's kind of like magazines where the person can try a month free). The products usually ship for $4, and I get about $17! So I have no inventory, and I made over $1,200 last month.

Anyway, it's the best way to make money that I've seen, and it's free.

Best of luck to you!
