Review Of “How To Start A Coffee Shop”

Honestly, I didn’t know such a book existed. I mean how many people are really interested in opening their own coffee shop? Well, believe it or not, thousands each month. And with very little info on the subject, this book is a life saver. Let me give you a general idea of what you’re going to find inside.

The thing you are going to like best about this book is how it will show you how to do this at minimal cost. I’m talking, under $25,000 and not a penny out of YOUR pocket. Quite honestly, this plan is genius and is worth the price of the book itself. In fact, there are case studies of people using this system who have opened up shops for less than $500. It’s almost mind boggling.

The book goes over a ton of information including:
  • 7 ways to get financing
  • Market statistics, so you know if there is room for you
  • 80 individual steps to make sure your coffee shop is successful
  • Marketing solutions that don’t cost a small fortune
  • How to design your shop on a shoestring budget
  • Where to get the best coffee beans
  • What equipment you must have
  • How to determine your hours of operation
  • 10 Marketing methods that create buzz. If you read my free report, you understand about buzz.
  • How to keep up with the coffee industry…very important.
There are tons of resources inside as well such as an employee handbook, alcohol and drug policies, employment applications and way too much to get into here.

There are also videos and conference calls with coffee shop experts.

Honestly, the amount of information in this product is mind numbing.

And that may be the one problem as well. You need to understand this, so I will make this as clear as possible.

There is a TON of work in opening a coffee shop and a lot of info that needs to be absorbed. This product leaves NOTHING out. Which means that it’s going to take you a bit of time to go through it all. If you DON’T have the time…don’t get this. I’m serious.

If you’re serious about opening a coffee shop, I can honestly and truthfully say that this is going to become the coffee shop business bible someday if it already isn’t.

At the very least, please check out the site to see EVERYTHING that they have to offer. And yes, I do get compensated if you purchase this book from me. That compensation helps me to be able to review worth while products in the future.
