23 and own shave ice shack, coffee shop, yet stuck

[fhs8]

What about the sales to rent ratio? What is the breakdown in expenses? How much more revenue would you need in order to always have an employee there and breakeven? Also did you check your monthly sales? Is there a trend? I'm sure you have these figures on hand since you likely had to charge sales tax and for income tax purposes.

We can and do ice anything upon request, as I do have a very small, non-commercial grade ice maker. Iced drinks aren't too popular, but when we run out of ice we have to close up while we run down the street to a convenience store and grab a bag of ice.

As for iced coffee/tea, are there any iced items on the menuboard? I'm sure sales of iced coffee would increase by a lot if it was on the menu. You already sell enough that you sometimes run out of ice. If you sell an item so much that it runs out then the solution is to increase capacity and not conceal the item by not putting it on the menuboard so that it sells less.
