Open shop, free.

Everyone has a shop in their heart.

Everyone has a coffee shop in their heart.

It was a yearning for freedom. He got rid of office workers and worked nine to five. He didn't have to listen to some stupid leader telling him what to do. He could do what he wanted with his heart.

It was also a commitment to himself. Regardless of whether he had been restrained or not, the dream of opening a coffee shop had been deeply buried in his heart for many years and he had never given up.

First of all, we have to figure out the positioning.

Many people will be very optimistic before opening a shop to plan, I want to open the shop into what kind. Enthusiasm and ideas are naturally good things, but reality is too different from imagination. How to integrate the "cruel" reality into the beautiful imagination is the most important problem for every prospective coffee shop owner.

Don't always think too good.

A friend likes cats very much, ready to open a cat theme cafe, let cats in the cafe and guests play, the whole cafe can also have cat photos and furnishings for sale.

Ask friends around for their opinions, feedback also said that the cat-themed coffee shop is very novel and interesting. Therefore, the more Xiao A thought about it, the more excited he became. In order to show that he was not blindly making a decision, he went to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou to visit the local popular cat cafe.

However, after the opening of his cafe, problems came one after another. Every cat had to have an immunity certificate, cats had to have a special toilet position, cats were easy to be poisoned by eating desserts and chocolates, guests could not feed cats food at will, and cat claws were easy to scratch and scratch guests 'clothes...

This situation of small A is typical of "optimistic vision, pessimistic execution".

Allocate the investment ratio

Open a coffee shop, your business bill will basically have the following: equipment, raw materials, rent, decoration, if it is a plate of a formed coffee shop also includes transfer fees. The largest proportion of expenses here is decoration and transfer fees, followed by rent, but the most basic equipment, raw material expenditure has become indispensable. That's why you can't help but want to sit down at a coffee shop with a distinctive decoration and theme, but when you order a cup of coffee to taste, you can't help but frown.

Therefore, friends who are ready to open stores suggest that we can increase investment in equipment and raw materials. After all, it was a coffee shop, and the quality of coffee still needed to be guaranteed. A good coffee machine alone would cost tens of thousands of yuan, not to mention good coffee beans.
