specialty coffee
| Customer Rating: | | A great book for basic understanding of what it takes to start and run a successful coffee business. |
Thinking about a Coffee Business??
| Customer Rating: | This should be the title "Thinking about running a Coffee Business" I gave this 3 stars because it is very easy to read, straight to the point, does point out some warning signs.
If your already in the business then, forget it. |
Very Helpful
| Customer Rating: | | My husband and I are business people but have never opened a coffee shop....the book was great! |
A good starter book, but lacks details
| Customer Rating: | | I agree with most of the other reviewers. If I were opening a coffee cart or kiosk I'd find this book educational. As it is, it lacks details but does give good basic information. You can start here but "Become a coffee house owner" is far more detailed, with business plans, budgets, specific list of items needed (down to the grease trap), contacts, employees, probably health requirements etc. I did gain some knowledge from this book, but it won't be a point of referral in the future. |
Fine for brainstorming but little use otherwise.
| Customer Rating: | | Let's imagine you are thinking about buying that espresso stand down beside the street corner near your home. "Hmmm....wonder if that is a goldmine waiting to be mined?" If so, this book is an adequate first step in your research. It touches a wide range of topics with a scientific, by-the-numbers approach. Therein lies the fault. You see, entrepreneurship is not a science. It is an art. So, too, is service and great coffee! By all means, buy of read ESPRESSO! STARTING & RUNNING YOUR OWN SPECIALTY COFFEE BUSINESS first. The ESPRESSO BARTENDERS GUIDE TO ESPRESSO BARTENDING has to be the next book on your journey to making a living brewing great coffee. Before you buy that espresso stand, though, get hold of RETAIL MANAGEMENT by Ron Hasty and learn why the location of that stand may, or may not, be in a good location for your target market!
