Campus Activities Planners: 5 Ways To Make Your Events Even Better

Posted on

 

The team at Maui Wowi Coffee & Smoothie Catering has learned a lot over the last 15 years about what makes campus events successful. We figure we have made and served well over 1.5 million smoothies, espresso drinks and hot cocoas at more than 5,000 campus events during that time! That pretty much makes us experts at campus events. Here are some tips we hope you’ll find useful to make your student activities (with us and with other service providers) more fun and successful.hot_cocoa_bar1.jpg

 1. Tell them, tell them what you told them, and then tell them again

In the course of serving a few million drinks to students, we have heard the same question thousands of times. “What’s this for?” While our standard wise guy answer is, “Your tuition check cleared!” we of course let them know that their campus activities board is sponsoring the event. But if we have to tell them, then you’re not getting the credit you deserve. We suggest the following steps to raise awareness of your event.

  • Signage at the event
  • It doesn’t have to be fancy. An A-frame sign (like you see outside restaurants) with a chalkboard or whiteboard and a few words about the event (“Take a Break with a Smoothie/Sponsored by your CAB”), positioned where people will see it, will do the trick.

  •  Text and social media before and during the event
  • Most campuses have the ability to send a group text to all students, in addition to Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and other social media. We suggest promoting our presence on campus a full week before the event, then the day before we’re there, then the day of the event and during the event as well. (We’ll send you a jpg of our logo to use in your promotion.) Our goal is to run out of everything we have – smoothies, cups, coffee, ice, everything – not because we’re lazy and want have less to pack up (well, that’s true, too) but because we want to reach and please the highest number of students we can. So send us home empty-handed!

2. Provide logo cups

We use our own cups for smoothies or espresso and hot cocoa drinks, but we’d be just as happy to use cups you provide. You can get logo cups with your college and CAB logo, including recyclable and compostable cups, produced inexpensively. We’d be happy to do it for you and bring them to your event. (BTW, compostable cups make a great tie-in with an Earth Day event, which is April 22, 2017).

 3. A little crowd control goes a long way

We’ve had campus events at which we’re serving smoothies to 1000 people in 2-4 hours. We can serve more people faster if there is optimal line control. Some colleges set up stanchions so students enter and exit the line in an orderly way. This enables us to serve more people quicker (and run out of everything, as you know we want to do!).

 

 4. Add a new element

You know us for our great smoothies, espresso drinks, hot cocoa and shaved ice. But we also partner with other vendors (depending on your location) who offer chair massage (pair with smoothies or lattes for pre-exam relaxation events and spa days), fresh-donut makers, head shot photographers (excellent for senior and upper class events for students who want to brush up their LinkedIn profiles) and more. We’ll create a bundle for you, all included in one proposal.

5. Tie in with a theme

We make Maui Wowi smoothies for every conceivable kind of event…and not just for Hawaiian themed events! BUT, who doesn’t love dressing up in a grass skirt or the most outrageous Aloha shirt? Hawaiian events on campus are easy to plan, inexpensive to get supplies for, photo-ready and fun. And Hawaiian themed events are especially fun in the middle of winter, to get your mind somewhere warmer, if not your body.

 We’ve also done smoothie bars for events like Gatsby Night, Zumba Party, Foam Party, Health & Wellness, Movie Night (smoothies + popcorn = yum!), Alcohol Awareness, Valentine’s Day (strawberry smoothies and cherry shaved ice, anyone?)

Employee Appreciation Events Raise Productivity

Posted on


You don’t want to be this guy, right?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We used to have a boss who said (only half joking), ” If you don’t come in on Saturday, don’t even bother  coming in on Sunday!” Of course, now we’re our own boss so we work seven says a week (sigh).

Anyway here’s the point: employee appreciation events are good for you and your staff, and get this: they raise productivity! Our favorite newspaper has an article this morning offering scientific proof that taking breaks raises productivity.

 

coffeeumbrella.jpgWe could have written the story ourselves! So now, when you treat your employees to a Maui Wowi smoothie bar or catered espresso bar with our lattes, cappuccinos, mochas and more, you’ll know you’re not only being the anti-Scrooge but you’re actually making them better at their jobs.

There are so many pictures of Maui Wowi employee appreciation events,  we’re practically breaking Google. Take a look: if you don’t see your firm’s photo in there, there’s a chance your employees are being under-productive — all for the lack of a Maui Wowi smoothie or latte. It ain’t worth the risk!

We can’t believe you got to the end of this article without calling us to set up your own Maui Wowi employee appreciation event with our smoothie or espresso catering event in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut or anywhere else in the United States. Our contact info is below. See you soon!

Have Our Catered Espresso Bar for an Entire Week

Posted on

Want to do something really special for your students or employees? Take a look at what we did at Kingsborough Community College in Brooklyn, NY. Maui Wowi literally moved in for an entire week and created a catered espresso and gourmet hot cocoa bar to get students through finals week. We served nearly 2,000 drinks over the course of the week. We use our own Kona espresso beans, ground fresh with each cup. Our cocoa is Ghiradelli (and if you find something that’s better, we want to know about it – because we think this is the best there is). Add our selection of Monin syrups, sauces, toppings and you have a fantastic selection of customized espresso drinks for your people. Students love having us for 2 hours, but what about having us for 4 hours for an entire week? That’s 10 times the love. 🙂

A Maui Wowi catered espresso bar is also perfect for corporate employee appreciation events. January’s coming and it’s going to be cold in most of the country. Imagine having our catered espressos, cappuccinos, lattes, mochas and more on site for the whole week. Your employees will save a small fortune from their usual Starbucks. And our’s is fresher and better, anyway!

Add Maui Wowi Espresso Catering To your Events

Posted on

Maui Wowi espresso catering dresses up any occasion – corporate events or social gatherings like weddings, bar mitzvahs and communions. We use Kona espresso beans and grind our beans fresh for your event. You can choose from an array of Monin syrups and sauces, and add liquers as well.

 

Coffee-Smoothie-01-11-163164.jpg

 If hot cocoa is more your speed, we use Ghiradelli double chocolate – we think it’s the best cocoa available. Then we’ll provide the fun stuff – candies, marshmallows and mix-ins to add to your original drink.

Maui Wowi Espresso Drinks For Corporate Holiday Party

Posted on


Maui Wowi Coffee & Smoothie Catering’s first corporate holiday party of the season last night featured a spicy drink menu of espresso drinks mixed with Fireball whiskey, Pinnacle Cinnamon Roll vodka, and Bailey’s Salted Caramel.

 


 

 

If you’re among those event planners who think of smoothies and tiki bars when you hear the Maui Wowi name, it’s time to think again. We’ve been getting more and more into espresso catering for corporate events like holiday parties, corporate meetings, and promotional events; private party espresso catering for weddings and other celebrations; and espresso and hot cocoa drinks for campus events.

 Maui Wowi can serve a custom espresso menu with or without alcohol for private parties. We’ll work with your event planner to customize a menu and create signature drinks.

If you’ve worked with Maui Wowi before, especially for our smoothie events, you may have seen us dressed in Hawaiian shirts. For espresso catering we typically dress in black button down shirts and black pants, but we can wear whatever apparel is appropriate.

As a planner, you’ll benefit from Maui Wowi espresso catering’s rapid setup time. We can be ready to go in 15 minutes or less.

Maui Wowi espresso catering can serve hundreds of guests. For smaller events with tighter spaces we use a single machine (above) and for larger events we can use multiple espresso machines and servers,

10 Great Maui Wowi Espresso Cocktails For Your Corporate Holiday Party

Posted on

The holiday party season is coming, so if you’re planning corporate events, holiday parties for employees or clients, you’re likely starting to think about what to include in your event. A Maui Wowi espresso bar is a great addition to parties during the holiday season.  

Here are our 10 favorite espresso cocktails Maui Wowi can make for your corporate holiday party. Or we can customize a menu just for your party.

RumChata Espresso Martini:  If you’ve never had RumChata, it’s a great cocktail starter with a creamy cinnamon and vanilla base. We add 2 parts RumChata with a shot of espresso and one part Espresso Vodka.

Irish Martini: We’re mixing our Hawaiian espresso wirh Irish cream here, but we’re all about the melting pot of cocktails! The third ingredient is vodka.

Espresso Martini: The non-dairy version of the above – our Maui Wowi espresso, Kahlua and vodka.

Tito’s Espresso Martini: We’re big fans of USA-made Tito’s vodka (and it’s organic!). We start with Maui Wowi espresso shot, add Baileys Irish Cream,, Kahlua, Sambuca,  and Tito’s Handmade Vodka.

Wake-up Shake: This might just be our favorite: Maui Wowi espresso, milk, Tuaca (an amazing vanilla and citrus liquer) and vanilla ice cream.

The Truffle: For this drink we use cold Maui Wowi espresso, added to Frangelico and vodka.

Chocolate Mocha Latte: Maui Wowi espresso, milk, Kahlua and chocolate syrup. Served on the rocks.

Bronx Bomber: For those of you who like to live on the edge, we start with a double shot of Maui Wowi espresso and add gin and absinthe (but not enough to make you hallucinate).

Espresso Noir: Love espresso? Love cherries? This cocktail includes Maui Wowi espresso, Grey Goose Cherry Noir, amaretto, a touch of simple syrup and cream.

Grand Iced Cafe Latte: Ghiradelli chocolate syrup, Maui Wowi espresso, Grand Marnier, milk, whipped cream. Dessert in a glass.

Of course, if you’re a purist we’ll be happy to pull you a shot of our espresso all by itself, and you won’t be able to have just one.

We serve: Smoothies, Coffee, Espressos, Cappuccinos, Daiquiris, Margaritas, Frozen Cocktails & Chocolate beverages catered for your events & parties. We’re completely mobile: we can set up just about anywhere, indoors or out, summer or winter. Maui Wowi is ideal for Bar/Bat Mitzvah, Sweet 16, Holiday Parties, Graduations, Corporate Meetings & Events, Customer Appreciation Events, Retail & Tradeshow Promotions, Movie Sets, Summer Camps, College Campus Events and more.
