I Know And You Know ... All About Coffee Shops
We grew up with coffee shops and coffee houses. We know what they are. Let me rephrase that: We KNOW what they are. Your banker too.
And that is one of the hardest things about writing a business plan for a coffee shop. It can get real boring real easy. Don't let that happen. There is a very good reason -- or two or three -- that made you decide on this particular business at this particular time in this particular place. You are excited about it.
So convey that enthusiasm to your banker. (and you thought this was going to be easy?)
Let's Make Your Coffee Shop Business Plan Exciting
OK, so it won't rival a new biotech. But it really has an excitement all its own. Here are some things we can do to add a bit of mystery and excitement to the presentation:
1. Get Your Web Site Up and Running. You probably can't do the whole thing, but you can do enough to show how you will build your community online, a tremendously important consideration in this day and age.
2. Apprentice Yourself Out. If you have never run a coffee shop before, go become an apprentice for a while and learn the ropes. You will gain a mentor for life, and impress the dickens out of your banker.
3. Create A Nice Looking, Comprehensive Business Plan. Don't just throw some numbers together. Do it right. Show that you are proud of the new business.
4. Spotlight Your Unique Quality. There is something that makes your coffee shop unique. Maybe the beans. Maybe the coffee cake. Maybe the person making the coffee cake. Whatever it is, do spotlight it. It is important.
5. Know Your Numbers. Show a respect for, and understanding of, the financials in your business plan. Few entrepreneurs do. Set yourself apart.
While none of these ideas will set the world on fire, taken as a whole they go a long way to gaining your banker's interest and respect, no small accomplishment.

Customer Reviews of the 7 Step Coffee Shop Business Plan
Overall rating: (4.8 out of 26 reviews). Here's a sampling:
Julia Samuels (Wichita, KS). "For years I have wanted to open a little coffee shop just for seniors in the area, and there are lots of us! I dreamed of decaf delights and sugar free munchies. My husband got so tired of hearing me talk about it that he got me your book for my birthday. What a lovely, lovely gift. I got some financing from the SBA, and I am now looking for a little place, about 2,000 square feet, big enough for me and my friends to share some wonderful stories and wonderful coffee (and even some teas!)"
Jackson. ""After working for someone else for over ten years, I figure I know the territory. I have just opened my first coffee house. I say 'first' because there are going to be more. None of that high priced coffee stuff. Just good coffee and good eats. What a way to make a living!"
Sherry Shaunessey. "I was scared to death of bankers. Believe me, it felt so much better walking into the bank with your business plan in hand."
Jessie and Don Cookson. "Well, I'm the paper person (I'm Jessie) and Don's the doer. So I got the job of writing the business plan. Good thing too. Because I found the 7 Step Business Plan: Coffee Shop, and I actually understood it. Now that we've got the financing, it's up to Don to make the whole thing a reality (with a little supervision from me, of course)."
Andy Pesa (W.VA). " I tried using of the other business plans on the market, and couldn't even get started. Yours was just so much easier to understand."
