Healthy Lifestyle







Booster Juice is one of my favourite smoothie business in Canada; Booster Juice was created by   two University students by the name of Dale Wishewan and Jon Amack. Dale Wishewan and Jon Amack were the first to introduce healthy smoothies to Canadians,which made them a successful business duo for fourteen years. The things that separate booster juice from other companies are: Healthy Smoothies, Hot Food Selections, Community Involvement, Pricing on Product, and friendly Customer Service.




 Healthy Smoothies

Booster juice offers many variety of  healthy smoothies. Here are some of  the choices that Booster Juice's menu offers: Freshly Squeezed Juice, Classic Smoothies, Hardcore Smoothies, Superfood Smoothies, High Protein Smoothies, High Protein Superfood Smoothies, Sprint Smoothies, and  Specialty Items. All of these selections have different options that are available in stores depending on the customer's demands or selections.There are different boosters(supplements) that can be added in the smoothies example: Boggle,Combo, Energy , Fibre, Fusion , 
Go Girl, Powder, Soy Protein Powder, Warrior, and Wilderness. Customer can customize their own smoothies base on the individuals taste and energy needs. 


Food Items 
By implementing food items to Booster Juice menu allows customers to not only drink smoothies but to also eat  delicious sandwiches.The Food Items menu offers: BBQ Chicken Panini, Booster bake"pastries," Chicken Quesedilla, Smoke BBQ Steak Wrap, Chipotle Chicken Panini, Chipotle Chicken Wrap, Chipotle Steak Panini, Egg Scrambler Wrap, Presto Chicken Panini, Smoked BBQ Steak Panini, Smoked BBQ Steak Wrap,Egg/Steak Scrambler Wrap, Sundried Caprese Vegetarian Wraps/Panini, and Tuna Wrap. This strategic plan will bring extra competition to the fast food market. 



 Community Involvement 
Booster Juice takes great pride in promoting Cd's to raise funds for charities, provides free smoothies on customers birthday and they are highly involved with school lunch programs.Booster juice have Celebrity endorsements with Jose Bautista (Toronto blue jays baseball player).Furthermore, Booster Juice also promotes fit for kids organization, they also host weddings at their stores. Also, young and old entrepreneur have the option of buying a franchise which will help the economy because it will help those that are jobless in the community.


Pricing on Product
The prices for Booster Juice smoothies are very expensive because they are made with quality and rare ingredients. For example, any classic smoothies which are made with local ingredients are cheaper than the superfood protein smoothies which are made with rare ingredients which accounts for why its higher in price. The founders main focus is to create quality smoothies, so their product would be different from the other competitors.


 Customer Service 
Visiting several Booster Juice stores, i receive excellent customer service. The employees are well knowledgeable about the different types of smoothies they offer, and also seeks to help customers choose a smoothie base on their needs. The only thing i found a bit frustrating was how long i had to wait for my smoothie because of the long line up.However, the great  taste and  the quality of  the smoothie was worth the wait.




Conclusion
