It's Officially Summer

The sudden onset of summer brought out the entrepreneurial spirit in our neighborhood and a new venture, Eric's Summer Snacks, was successfully launched this afternoon.

And behind every great CEO, including Eric, is a fab Sales and Marketing team.

Eric's Summer Snacks offers a diverse product line at various price points. The strategy, although not verified by ESS, is to appeal to a cross-generational market willing to pay a premium for convenience. Eric's Summer Snacks pricing structure should yield a handsome gross margin. Even with competitive salary packages for the excellent Sales and Marketing team, net income should be attractive. Of course being privately held, these assumptions could not be verified. We did observe brisk sales and ESS took on another sales associate, Mei, shortly after opening. Demand for Eric's Summer Snacks remained high and by 3:30 pm completely sold out.

Either that or everyone went off to their respective practice sessions.

Best of luck to ESS and happy summer!
