Hello to all!
I hope you all have enjoyed following what you could about The Apprentice Challenge outside of our blogging. Now, though, each of you (our readers) will be able to have a little deeper understanding of all that's going on with our projects.
I will shortly blog about Project #1, The Kaiser Permanente/Live Well Colorado Smart Meal Challenge, to kind of fill in all the blanks that exist.
So much happened and it all was incredibly busy and fast.
*My team "The A Team" and I began meeting two weeks in advance of Project one to begin preparations and try to figure out what we thought would be the parameters within which we would be working.
*Assignment day came and went in a blur. But we were pleasantly situated, knowing that we had prepared fairly well.
*Basics for the Smart Meal Challenge
→Encourage restaurants to partner with COPAN in the Smart Meal Seal Program in efforts to educate and inform the public about healthier eating
→Get the restaurants to submit menu items for analysis to verify that they qualify within the guidelines of the Smart Meal Program
→Once items are analyzed and given the go ahead, we brought paperwork for the restaurant to sign up with the program.
*I would like to insert here that my team did very well with this project. While were not judged the winners, we were definitely successful within the project, signing one restaurant, Rosa Linda's Mexican Café!
→Oscar and his family are super-excited about the Smart Meal Program and cannot wait to institute it into their family owned and operated business.
I would encourage all of you to go to Rosa Linda's and to try their Cactus and the Enchiladas que son magníficos (which are magnificent)!
*Congratulations to the 5280 Closers and their excellent work on this project, signing 3 stores listed, having one in the process of signing, as well as signing all 15 Qdoba stores in the state! They did wonderfully!
Well, I'm hopefully this helps you gather a better sense of a bit of what we did. I am incredibly excited about this ability to blog and talk a bit about each project. I hope you all enjoy the Apprentice Challenge and I hope to be able to meet or see you at The Boardroom Finale!
