Behind The Scenes Of a $24,000 a Month Coffee Shop Business

My sister and brother have thought about starting a coffee shop and being from Buffalo, we have seen the Tim Horton's lines around blocks! Now we all live in different places but I found this video so informative and awesome! Great detail and it was awesome of the owner to share all her secrets and numbers! 

Here in delaware there is a small outlot like this one off of route 1 called MuddSlingers which is a great example. It is interesting to find out about LAND lease + the building + Mechanics needed and overhead etc. 

Great Video !! 

Here is the write up for the video

Starting a coffee shop is a dream for many, but opening a café can be a big investment. A drive-thru coffee shop business is an excellent alternative, with lower start-up costs and huge profit potential for entrepreneurs passionate about owning a coffee shop. Today we’re talking to Sandy Edin, owner of the Shots 2 Go coffee shop. The stand was struggling when she bought it in 2010.

Opening a coffee shop from scratch can be intimidating, even if you have lots of industry experience.

Bringing in customers is critical for the success of any new business. We’ll find out what marketing strategies Sandy used to get Shots 2 Go on customers’ radar, particularly during slow times, to keep her business competitive.
