The New Year is Here!!!
Happy New Year to everyone! The past four month have been hectic, but amazing. Gracie and I took part in networking events, catered for Red Door Spas and Microsoft, and had many adventures together. But now to the new year...Right back from winter break, it was back to work at Ruth's Chris. The first two days, we had two all-day conferences that had everyone involved working crazy hours, but it was a great experience to have the restaurant bustling and busy at seven in the morning. I participated in the normal activities, creating events, sales calls to the different buildings and companies in the area, as well as new and different tasks. Gracie and I attended the Bellevue Chamber of Commerce monthly meeting on Tuesday morning and in preparation, I had to prepare an elevator speech, a 30 second pitch about what Ruth's Chris has to offer different clientele and how we market ourselves to the surrounding community. It was an excellent learning experience, listening to how others market themselves and what each company focuses on in their pitch. So, the next time you are going to pitch something, come up with a 30-second hook for it, it's harder than it seems. Anyways, after the craziness of the holiday season, we are focusing on the catering aspect, trying to gain a larger client base. We have some events in the future, so I look forward to telling you all about them.--Hilary
