Good morning everyone. Thank you for coming today. As I have explained on Whatsapp, we
are going to discuss about what kind of cakes will we sell, who will work on Christmas Day,
and about the discount. All right, first let’s discuss about the cakes. Ben, I would like to hear
your suggestions on what cakes we should sell on Christmas day?

It would be a nice idea if we sell gingerbread decorating package for kids.

That’s all we are going to sell?

Of course not. We will still sell cakes as usual, but I plan to reduce the production
and replace them with Christmas cakes like nastar, kaasstengels, and some
cupcakes with Christmas decorations.

Hmm, sounds good. Can you explain more about what’s included in the package?

The package will include 15 pieces of gingerbread with/of various shapes, 3 packs of royal
icing with different colors, 1 pack of candies, 1 pack of sprinkling sugars, and 1 pack
of Choco chips.

David, do you have any suggestions?

How about we make hampers? Today many people like to send gifts to their friends or family
when there’s a celebration. This time the trend is hampers.

Yeah, that’s true, I have seen many influencers on Instagram sent hampers to their friends to
celebrate Eid Mubarak.

Sometimes we also need to follow the trends to be able to compete with others. And how
about the discount David?
We can make the discount for the gingerbread decorating package or for the
hampers. We will give a 5% discount if they buy 3 packages. Or we can give a10%
discount for every purchase of 25 packages of hampers.

Should we choose one of that discounts or can we use both of them?

We can use both discounts to attract more customers.

if that’s okay for our finances.

It will be okay.

Okay, let’s move to other topic= another topic/ other topics. What about the employees who
will work on Christmas day? Are there any of them celebrating Christmas?

There are three employees who will celebrate Christmas.

Will they ask for a day off?

For now, no one ask yet. But I plan to give them a day off and will find for freelancers to
replace them on Christmas.

Oh… you planned it well. Yeah.. we also have to give them a day off so they can spend time
with their families. Okay….. is there anything that needs to be discussed?

One more thing from me. What about our shop decoration?

Oh yeah. Can you handle it? Just make a simple decoration. One Christmas tree and some
decorations in front of the entrance door.

Okay..

Does anyone have a question?......... Okay if not, let’s end today’s meeting. The next meeting
will inform you by Whatsapp. Thank you all for attending this meeting.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.
