All You Need
Why One Shot?
Making money from ice cream is a technology issue, not a marketing
issue. How much is it costing you to sell soft-serve ice cream?

How much real profit are you actually making on each portion? Markets
may determine your selling price, but it’s your
technology that will determine your portion costs and therefore
your profits.
And let us be frank, there is no space-age technology in
manufacturing conventional soft-serve. Product mix is product
mix.Conventional equipment manufacturers have striven over the
decades to ease the well-known problems of such equipment
but still they
exist to a great extent. Often it is the soft serve and/or shake
equipment that represents the biggest challenge within an outlet.
Some
problems are due to the very nature of the equipment and product,
but much
is due to the inability of the operators to operate and sanitise
the equipment correctly.

Apart from raw material costs, all other production and service
costs are normally hidden as overheads. Energy consumption, cleaning,
sanitising, waste, training, transport, servicing, maintenance – all
indirect costs, all written off under overheads, all hidden.
Result? True portion costs and true profits (or losses), unknown.
