How to Set Up a Coffee Shop Guide!

 

"Don Clarke's book has been extremely useful to us.  We purchased it in March 2008 when we began planning our shop. 

An important lesson we learned from Don’s book related to  the size of the shop.

We had originally planned to lease a smaller unit, but when we did the numbers, as advised by Don, we realised that there was no way we could have made a living from this nor generated the volume we needed.  ...... building in capacity for expansion, as recommended by Don,  was a critical part of our plan."

Ian and Veronica Grantham, owners of Village Coffee, Codsall,

Do you know how big the market is for a simple product like a cup of coffee?  No? 

IT HAS AN ANNUAL TURNOVER OF £2.5 BILLION!

And in these difficult times of the "Credit Crunch", people still spend money in coffee shops!  In fact, they are more likely to visit a coffee shop for a fairly cheap snack, and avoid their usual (and  more expensive) restaurants.

The profit on a cup of coffee can be 900% - if you get it right, your coffee shop could make you rich!  And I want to help you get it right!

Some of you may have been working long, unsociable hours in the catering industry.  The brilliant thing about coffee shops is that you work normal hours!  You have more time with your family, you have less pressure than working in a hotel or restaurant kitchen, and you will be your own boss!  So what are you waiting for?!

You can order now Don Clarke's INSTANT DOWNLOADABLE E-BOOK

or the PRINTED 136 PAGE version, which will be posted to you, P&P Free!

Both come WITH ACCOMPANYING BUSINESS PLAN and FINANCIAL PROJECTION SPREADSHEETS so you can begin planning for your business straight away!

 

'The information relayed is detailed and comprehensive and words are not wasted.'
