advertise my business because so many people set up business and don't even
have a sign saying what they are selling and if people don't know what they are
selling how would the seller get sales . Also carefully prepare my meals by using
clean containers and utensils to ensure that my dishes are cleanly and properly
prepared. I want my customers to view my business as a business that cares about
it's customers satisfaction, wants, and needs. I want my customers to my company
that serves first class delicious breakfast, pastries and other delicious dishes for
breakfast lunch and dinner.
