Quiz- How many ices scooped in 15 minutes?

Sign up here- This video is actually 15 minutes long- I sped it up 500% and reduced it down to 3 minutes. You can quickly see how many customers you can get in 15 minutes at an event.

Using some multiplication you can calculate the amount of customers over an hour or all day. Let me know how many customers you count in 15 minutes.This home business is a great franchise alternative

Many thanks to James Murphy from Indiana for shooting this video for us to use.   Little Jimmy’s Italian Ice

The last week of September I sold Italian ice at a local festival and decided to video it a little different this time. I used a FLIP camera and shot reactions to my customers over the course of an hour ordering and eating Little Jimmy’s Italian Ice. What you see here are real people interacting with me as I am selling Italian ice, having fun and making money all at the same time.

You may be wondering what the popping sound is that you hear throughout the video- you will find out at the end of the video.

Excerpt:  “At the South of the James Market at Forest Hill Park, Mark Abernathy from Little Jimmy’s Italian Ice of Carytown served the masses. It was the busiest day all season, and by noon, Abernathy had already sold more than 125 ices.

Sydnee Voigt, who is visiting her grandchildren from Brazil, was among his customers. Pina colada and watermelon ices went to the kids. “We’re just going to spend Labor Day together as a family,” Voigt said.

As for Abernathy, his plan after work: Head down to his boat on the Chesapeake Bay.”

I am a new dealer for Little Jimmy’s Italian Ice and worked my first event on June 27th & 28th of 2009. I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with your product, service, and most importantly, our customer satisfaction. The event I worked was in Nashville, TN where most people are not familiar with Italian Ice, but we still served over 800 customers even though the weather was not favorable.

I was amazed at how many people we had who previously lived on the East Coast who were familiar with both New Jersey Ice and Little Jimmy’s quality products. We had another Italian Ice competitor about 45 yards from us in this event, and we had customers who bought from both of us. I received several unsolicited comments that our product was far superior to the product served by our competitor. (Repicci’s – A Franchised Product manufactured in TN) We had 2 vendors who walked all the way back to our booth in the hot sun after purchasing our competitor’s product. They asked us to throw their purchase from our competitor in our trash, and placed a replacement order with us. That blew my mind!

I had fun with our customers and would always ask them to taste the product to see if they liked it before leaving our booth. All responses were overwhelmingly positive that produced huge smiles. I usually asked them if they liked it as well as ice cream, and without exception the response I received was:  “Better!”  I was also amazed over how many requests I had for Chocolate that I had not included in my initial order. I could not be more pleased with the superior quality of your product.

We had numerous repeat sales, especially from other vendors working the show. This allowed us to outsell the competition by a minimum of 4 to 1. Most of the time our competitor’s booth was completely empty while we still had people lined up.

Quality does matter, and our experience proves people will line up for high quality foods! Thanks for such a great product and for doing such a great job!

Best regards,

This first Italian Ice was served to a lucky patron at a Shopping Center out west this past weekend. Little Jimmy’s Italian Ice Kiosks are great for indoor and outdoor mall locations. We will be getting a video of this location in the next few weeks. Check back….

Even though our customers are out there hard at work, they still have time to share with us videos and pictures of their adventures selling Little Jimmy’s Italian Ice where they live- Here are some more videos from our customers over the last couple of months-
