    If you want to please an ice cream lover then don’t be cheap. Pack the ice cream in as much as possible and the customers will keep returning

    It’s very difficult to answer a survey in this manner. Please create an online survey and circulate the links to those people whom you want response from.

    Free surveys can be created on the web.
