Introduction to the Coffee Shop Management and Opening Course
Programma
01. The location analysis
No location is wrong, no concept is wrong, sometimes the mistake is to cross these two factors incorrectly. Let’s find out how to evaluate the best location for our project. Attention, it is a step that takes time, but it can become your most dangerous mistake.
02 - Business plan and Break Even Point
After the analysis of the location, it is time to do some math. We evaluate the possible incomes and the percentage incidence of the costs, up to obtaining a break even point, the reference point of our project.
03 - Marketing: Creating a successful Coffee Shop
The task of those who do business is to understand which target they are aiming at, and what are the needs of this target, sometimes hidden and linked to psychology of it. But at the end of the day, the secret is… Let’s close ourselves in the laboratory, and let’s invent something extraordinary!
04 - Before the Opening…
Furnish the venue based on the type of target and offer, structure the right communication, think about what are the best machines and equipment for our venue … all the things to think about before opening.

L'ho frequentato a novembre di quest'anno... semplicemente un'esperienza fantastica... Roberto, il docente, è un ragazzo straordinario, tiene le lezioni in modo così semplice. Ti porta anche in pausa pranzo per provare la vera cucina italiana per pochi soldi.
Nel complesso, consiglio questo corso solo a chiunque voglia conoscere le macchine da caffè e divertirsi lungo il percorso.
Altamente, altamente, altamente raccomandato.
