Cupcake Confections LLC
When analyzing the organizational feasibility, we should examine the cultural aspect of Cupcake Confections LLC. The location of the shop will be on or around the vicinity of Virginia Commonwealth University to better target young adults. For the makeup of the restaurant, we have decided to hire 6 staff members between the ages of 16-34 years; one being a full-time manager, one being a full-time supervisor, and the other four being part-time staff. While it is a positive to have one manager throughout the day so you don’t have to split the cost for two, that leads to a drawback of the Manager burning out throughout the day. To minimize the risk of this, we will have the manager only come in during the busier shifts of the day versus staying

    Hris Course Project

    Castle’s Family Restaurant is a local, small family owned business. Business is booming due to the location of the restaurants. The family-owned business is usually a case of a dream vs. reality. With crazy hours, small profits and no relief, a small business is tough to handle. Finding employees who are the right “fit” is especially difficult for smaller, family owned businesses, which often do not have the luxury of a human resources department. Jay Morgan is the operations manager but playing two roles in this company by also acting as the HR manager, which is not good for him or for the company. As a Human Resource consultant for a small franchise like Castle’s, I would want to ensure that the restaurant is operating well because I know the success of the restaurant is heavily built around the flow in which it functions. The work environment of a restaurant is usually fast paced, and requires the maximum efficiency. Employees are almost always part-time workers, except for managers and other supervisors. Mr. Morgan is traveling too much during the week to each location to handle several to almost all of the HR functions.…

    See's Candies Inc.

    Charles See founded SEE'S Candies Inc. in 1921 in the city of Los Angeles, California. Charles See was a visionary who approached the confection business with a simple view. He decided that no image would better reflect the personality of this venture than that of his mother. Apart from using her recipes as a foundation, See knew that keeping things in the family was the only way to bring about the kind of product he desired. See along with his mother and his wife, Florence, opened the first See's Candies store on Western Avenue in Los Angeles in November of 1921. See's was able to grow steadily from that first shop in Los Angeles to twelve shops by the mid-1920's and thirty shops during the depression. By 1936, See's was able to expand to San Francisco. For generations See's famous old time candies are well known and loved throughout the West. If you were to visit a See's store, you would find a sparkling clean black and white shop where your candies would be packed to order as you made your candy selection. See's reputation for friendly old-fashioned service remains unrivaled. To produce the best possible boxed chocolates, See's acquired the choicest and finest grade raw ingredients from all over the world. No additives or preservatives are ever used in See's Candies, only fresh wholesome ingredients. A $300 million subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, See's Candies delivers over 100 varieties of fresh chocolates via its retail stores, corporate marketing programs, phone and mail orders, and the Internet.

    Johnny Cupcakes, a Multi-Million Dollar Clothing Brand

    Johnny Cupcakes is a multi-million dollar clothing brand. The brand was founded in 2001 by Johnny Earle. One of Johnny 's acquired nicknames was Johnny cupcakes. He "thought it would be funny to make a couple random shirts that said 'Johnny Cupcakes ' on them for the fun of it" (Earle, 2012). After massive interest in these shirts, he decided to continue to make more and change up the designs. In 2001, Johnny stated, "the band I was in, On Broken Wings, finally got signed to a record label and we began to tour full time" (Earle, 2012). This opened up Johnny and his t-shirts to a larger crowd of customers in different parts of the country. This boosted the brand 's popularity and Johnny decided to quit the band and focus all of his time, effort, and attention on his t-shirts. Johnny ended up going to trade shows in Las Vegas and eventually "ended up getting carried by shops in Japan, Europe, and Canada in addition to a few other US locations" (Earle, 2012). Johnny had a turning point moment at that very same trade show later on that year. He realized people didn 't like having the same things as others and that they enjoyed uniqueness. At this point Johnny made the decision to pull all his shirts from retail stores. Earle 2012 stated that he "decided to make all of his t-shirts limited edition and exclusive, only selling them through his website" and later on in his own retail stores. As the Johnny Cupcakes brand grew, Johnny opened up stores in Hull, MA; Boston, MA; Las Angeles, CA; and London, England. Johnny states that "Above all, I 'll continue to focus on enhancing my customers ' experiences through my stores, events, website, designs, and packaging. I will never ever sell my brand to investors for all the money in the world. I think you 'll find that things will only get more interesting from here..." (Earle, 2012).…

Thus, we take 4 hours worth of time, minus off 26 minutes for the first batch and then divide by ten to get the number of orders.…

    Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, Inc. Ratio Analysis Liquidity Ratios As shown in Exhibit 1, quick ratio for Krispy Kreme gradually rose from 1.05 to 2.72, during 2000 to 2004. And current ratio changed with the similar pattern. Generally, a quick ratio of 1 is considered good in most industries. As for Krispy Kreme, the quick ratio is always higher than 1, and the highest point is 3.25 in 2004. This means that the company had good liquidity.

    Mcgee Cake Company

    The McGee Cake Company, owned by Doc and Lyn McGee, has been a sole proprietorship company since its inception in 2005 (Ross, Westerfield & Jordan, 2013, p. 18). A sole proprietorship “is the least regulated form of organization” and has allowed the McGee's to run their company largely as they see fit and to reap all the financial profits. However, the company's recent growth has added additional financial burdens which have caused the McGee's to revisit the company's current form of organization (Ross, Westerfield, & Jordan, 2013, p. 5). To that end, the owners have approached me “to help manage and direct the [company since its fast growth has] led to cash flow and capacity problems” (Ross, Westerfield & Jordan, 2013, p. 18). What follows is information on “the advantages and disadvantages of changing the company's organization from a sole proprietorship to an [limited liability company] as well as “the advantages and disadvantages of changing the [company's current form of business organization] to a corporation” (Ross, Westerfield & Jordan, 2013, p. 18). In addition, the McGee's have asked me for my recommendation as to which form of business organization I believe the company should undertake and the reasons/rationale behind my recommendation.…

    Hospitality Case Study

    The major issues present in the “bagel hockey” conundrum are that the employees are unhappy and lack enthusiasm for their job, a few “games” have been created by the same unenthusiastic employees which have led to a decrease in the quality of customer service as well as an appreciable loss of food, the supervisors in this situation are not doing their jobs, and finally the manager of the cafeteria has created too much of a lax atmosphere that was conducive to these behaviors. The majority of these problems stem from the lack of employee enthusiasm for their job, so it is important that the issue of low employee morale be dealt with first and given the most attention from the manager. In order to combat the morale issue employees should be rewarded for good work (through a program like employee of the month) their accomplishments recognized and praised through the use of a comment card box, and finally employees need to be posed the question “what would make coming to work more enjoyable for you?” The second issue can be solved by using these same tactics as it can trace its origin back to the first issue. The third issue needs to be combatted through a training session for the supervisors where they are reminded of their job descriptions. Finally the fourth issue can be solved through the presence of Mrs.Laraby being felt more around the Cafeteria, especially on weekends.…

    Mgt301 Module 1 Case

    McDonald’s is known the world over. It started as a little Bar-B-Q drive-in in 1940. Eight years later is when it became McDonald’s as we know it. The menu was reduced to the main staples and the inexpensive hamburger was the highlight. A year later came the introduction of fries. In 1954, Ray Kroc came to sell multi-mixers to the McDonald brothers and ended up going into business with them, which started their expansion. By 1958, they had already sold 100 million burgers. Today they lead the food service industry with more than 33, 500 local restaurants serving approximately 69 million people in 119 countries each day. (2) McDonald’s is constantly trying to grow. To achieve this they need to work on all four functions of management – planning, organizing, leading, and controlling. Planning helps develop new menus, ad campaigns, updating of locations, and expansion. Organizing helps get these changes out to all the stores and employees for training, setting up the new locations, and hiring the appropriate personnel. Leading makes sure this all stays consistent with the mission and flows smoothly. Controlling looks at everything as a whole and analyzes it to see how it is working and when changes need to be made. All these functions come together to form one unit.…
