We have just completed a few shows and had great success at each of them. We want to thank all of you who took the time to visit our booths and learn a little more about Snowie. We hope that you felt welcome and left well informed. We are adding a few things to our business this year that we believe will help each of you get started or improve the way you are currently running your business. These items are as follows:

A Business Pitching Pack

This messenger bag will be packed with the information and tools you need to tackle any pitch whether it is a local super-market, or a seasonal venue. We understand that these pitches can become intimidating and it is our goal to strip the fear from them by supplying you with everything you need and more. Make sure to ask your Snowie Representative about this new pack.

Monthly Snowie Webinars

Snowie will be hosting a webinar once a month to introduce products, information, new ideas and techniques to use in your business. It will be an open platform allowing you to ask questions, receive answers, and leave informed and excited about your potential. If you are interested in attending a webinar, our first one will be on the 17th of January, 2007. The meeting information is as follows:

Podcasts

We have a series of Audio and Video Podcasts to help educate you on every corner of your business. The topics are of a wide variety so you will be able to have them to act as reminders on items you may easily forget, you may use them to create a plan of attack, train new employees, implement change, etc.

Web-Based Snowie Business Management

As part of a low-priced subscription based service, Snowie will provide a platform where you will be able to manage your whole business on the web, whether you own one stand or twenty-five. Your workers will be able to schedule themselves, trade shifts with other workers, state their availability, all the while keeping you informed at real-time. We have put a lot of development into this product and believe it will solve nearly every business headache you currently have.

Community

We have a community forum that you can visit directly by going to http://community.snowie.com This is a great place for you to ask questions and receive answers, not only from Snowie representatives, but from a community of people that are in the shaved ice industry.

Beginning on the 15th of April, there will be a price increase on the following items:

Concentrate 4oz $4.25
Concentrate Pints $9.45
Concentrate Gallons $45.95


50 Gallon Mixer Are you tired of making your sugar water (1) 5 gallon jug at a time? We are too, thus we have created the new version of the 50 Gallon Mixer. This guy will allow you to make (10) 5 gallon jugs at a time. This may initially sound great to those who have very busy or large events, however, the appeal is for everyone in the shaved ice business. Remember, if you are preserving your sugar waters, they are good for one whole year. Make your life easy, get a 50 Gallon Mixer today.		Sweet Thickener 12 Packs (New Powder Version) [1 pack will make a 16 oz Serving Bottle / 2 packs will make a 32 oz Serving Bottle] Sweet Thickener is $12.00 We have had this product for some time now in a liquid form. While this was a great product, it was very difficult to mix because the elements would separate and harden. We have discontinued the liquid form and introduced these airtight packets to make your sugar-free lifestyles much easier. Sweet Thickener is made with a Splenda base giving it a fantastic taste.
