It’s over. It’s the last day of the ice cream business for me. I chose not to go into phase 2 of the business, that is to become a distributor for the brand.
I must admit that I learn tremendously over these 2 months dealing with ice cream. Mainly on the business aspects of it like marketing, sales, operation and teamwork. It allow me to be exposed to a different area of marketing - an area that I’m not familiar with before. Also I gain a lot more confidence by selling to hundreds of new people everyday.
The biggest gain I had from this project is to know Dennis and Clive better. The synergy we created was simply amazing. I see that we are complementing each other’s weakness. Three of us were not calculative with each other, we shared how we felt with each other along the way, helping each other to grow, yet without invalidation.
And we know that with that correcting of one another, we won’t hold anyone to heart, we won’t have any hard feelings. Also we are all people with drives and integrity, who can make things happen.
I will definitely miss the time we had in the ice cream van, but we know the three of us will definitely be in a same vehicle again. Maybe a plane!
