  1. make your station look nice and clean and have a good sign also throw in a nice table cloth one that you don't mind getting ruined tho


  2. spike the drinks

  3. look at a good recipe on like foodnetwork.com! (they have many usefull refreshing recipes!)

    make a good catchy name for ur little bizz its just fun to do.

    its always good to have a bake good for ppl to buy to!

    dont price ur lemonade at a high price!

    HAVE FUN!!!

  4. erm sell something else with it like ice cream not together ovbs but seperat al least ull get the sales of the lemonade and make profit. plus u could like a buy to lemonade get ice cream half price thing or somethin up to u

  5. sell a bake good to make more money

  6. Remember that some of us are diabetic, or on diets, so offering a sugar free version or alternative in addition to your lemonade means i could stop and buy a glass!

  7. pick a good location where lots of people will see you.  Make sure there is a place for them to park too.  Sell popcorn and chips (get the variety pack of small bags at the store).  Make sure you charge enough to make a profit.

  8. sell near a place where alot of people will see you. dont price your lemonade any more expensive than 1.75 because then people will buy it. be as friendly as possible and greet people with a warm smile. make sure you have a way to keep the lemonade cool cuz people dont really like warm lemonade. hope this helps!

  9. Try putting up some posters/some notes through people's doors, it should help you get more customers.

  10. To attract customers you need to feed off 1 of the 2 attractors in selling:

    1.  s*x sells.

    2.  Fear sells.

    Why do you think cheerleaders hosting car washes make so much money?

    Why do you think Axe body spray sells so much?  << These commercials can lead the mind to believe that if they use Axe body spray that hot women will be attracted to them.  This feeling is materialized in the form of fear by thinking, "If I don't wear Axe Body Spray, hot women won't like me."

    Simply put... put on a nice smile and play to people's fear and drives.

  11. i did that.

    try to make cupcakes cause of people buy cupcakes they will get thirsty and will want lemonade.

    try to be fast and organzied.

    hide your money in a box.

  12. uh...arent u a little old to have one??

  13. spike the lemonade

  14. be nice and look innocent, talk:)

    haha i did with my friend.

    i was really nice and i always put on an innocent face and this guy gave me a dollah:)

    say thanks and when people walk bye, say hi, but don't be like HI!! say it casually and friendly.

  15. Sell pink lemonade,cherry lemonade  and regular lemonade.

  16. sell food along with it

  17. Well, by doing a lemonade stand, you're obviously young. So you will not want to do it far from your home, like not on a curb right where vehicles will park. Do it by your door step and ONLY when a parent is home to keep an eye out on you. Keep a whistle with you, if there's trouble, blow it to alert your parents.

    Other than that, keep the lemonade ice cold! And don't presweeten it, keep sugar on the side. Not everyone likes sweetened lemonade.

    have fun! good luck!!

  18. you need to go to a busy area.  When I was little, we'd rake in $150 a day by going to a high traffic area (like a bike path), sell cool-aid and cookies.  The cookies we bought from Albertson's and claimed that we made them ourselves.  If you are a bit on the older side, you need to get to really young, cute kids to stand there and sell--you just watch over them.  Then take most of the profit.

  19. sell lemonade

  20. make colorfull signs to attract a lot of ppl.

    ohh and make some cookies or something to go along with the lemonade.

    :)

  21. put on a short skirt

  22. I hear that  Belgium Brewery has  a little  extra cash  floating  around and  they  have  more  room for  stock holders in a pinch.

  23. use good lemonade. no kool-aid! maybe fresh squeezed?

    price it at $0.25 a cup and make the cup 12 oz each.

    go somewhere where there is a lot of people. but not a lot of cars. cars dont usually stop for lemonade.

    dont do it on a busy DRIVING  street cause too many people will just be driving. maybe find a walking/biking trail around your house and sit by that. people will be thirsty and stuff. good place.

    i hope you make a lot of money!

  24. I hope you have fun and make lots of money.

  25. Umm well i'm doing one saturday and i've done them 10 other times. U want to be nice to the customers. Make sure u have change when u do the stand so that way if someone gives u a 5 dollar bill. U can give them money back. If someone asks you if u'll take less than what your asking for tell them no but in a polite way. And maybe if you want to even attract more people put a sign at the end of the block  and get like @ the grocery store those 25 packs of different flavored chips. Or get some cookies or makes some. Hope you liked my advice and do good at your lemonade stand! (=

  26. be friendly and make good lemonade!

  27. make sure u taste it before selling the lemonade.
