Recommendation
As we go there we notice that not all the time the shop has a very few
customers. So we recommend that they should promote their
establishment through advertisement, personal selling, and sales
promotion and of course public relations to improve and enhance the
image of or the reputation of the establishment.
Because when you start a business you must know the Element of the
Marketing. You should know the product that you will put on the market.
Place that is suitable for the product, price that should be competitive,
promotion that will catch the attention of customers to come.
