Why wait until you have money and free time to open a coffee shop?

For professional baristas, please follow the coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style)

Some time ago, a friend came to talk to me, from politics to the recent unemployment problem, and then said, "in a few years, my wife and I will open a coffee shop when we have money and leisure."... "

I asked him, "Why do you have to have money and leisure to open a coffee shop?"

Similarly, I want to ask you: "Why do you have to wait until you have money and leisure to open a coffee shop?"

I don't know why so many people define cafes as open only when they have money and leisure. Are you going to spend this money and all this time in vain? If that's the case, wouldn't it make more sense to donate the money to charity and spend this time volunteering? No wonder the transfer rate of coffee shops is so high!

What do we do when we have money and leisure? You have money! I think I will bear some unnecessary expenses, or even wronged money, free! Anyway, time is mine. I can play as much as I like! If you want to open a store in this state of mind, no, it should mean to do anything, what are the chances of success? It's hard, isn't it?

It costs one or 2 million yuan to open a coffee shop! How rarely do I hear that cafes are taken seriously as a cause!

Sometimes I will joke to people who want to open a store and say: [wow! If you buy a BENZ or BMW, you can not only enjoy it for three years, but also sell it and get half the money back. Opening a cafe with 2 million yuan may be over in a year, or you may still be in debt!]

Some friends will come to ask for some experience when they want to open a coffee shop, and some people will ask me to help him prepare for the opening of a coffee shop, but it usually ends up in discord, because I will ask him two questions: "how long are you going to open it?" and "is your menu ready?" to be honest, when I asked these two questions, none of them got a positive answer. I will ask them to go back and think about it, usually once they go back, they will not come again, and then they will hear about opening a store, and then, after a period of time, they will hear it gone.

If you are going to open a store, I will also ask you: "how long are you going to open?" and "is your menu ready?"

If you don't know how long you're going to drive, no, what I mean is, do you plan to "run a sustainable business"? If you really don't know, where is the future of this store?

If your menu is not ready, where is your guest? What do you want to make money from?

I often say to people who want to open a shop: opening a coffee shop is a labor career. A cup slowly depends on the accumulation of time and physical strength, if we spend money, time and physical strength to find that we can't do it, won't it be a loss for both husband and soldier?
