Coffee Shop: Business Strategies
Mr. B'd Coffee Shop "Tips 'N Tricks"
How much money can you make running a
coffee shop for 2 weeks?
Can you find the best recipe and price to make as
much as you can in 14 days. The
secret is to find a recipe that balances the ingredients
into an appealing blend and to sell it at a reasonable price
that doesn't cost more than your materials' cost of the day.
What works best may
vary,
Here is one recipe that will give you a
successful start.
Buy as much material each day as you can afford.
Don’t worry, if you slightly overspend by buying too
much for the day.
You will lose much more money if you run out of
material part during the day and have to stop selling
coffee.
Open up the "Recipe" tab in the
"Preparation" menu that appears at the beginning of every
day. Look at the
three tabs available: the coffee tab on top, the milk tab in
the middle and the sugar tab on the bottom.
Left click on the "Coffee" tab and slide
it to the right to make your coffee stronger. Stop at about
3 teaspoons to 3.5 teaspoons. This creates a strong blend
coffee that isn't too strong for the average customer.
Drag your "Milk" tab to about 1.3. Leave
it here to help blend milk with your coffee at a slightly
under even rate. Add this much milk to smooth the taste of
the coffee for the average customer.
Click and drag the "Sugar" tab to about
2.8 to make your coffee sweet. This drink will appeal to a
wider range of potential buyers.
Find the "Price" tab underneath the recipe
tab and drag it to about $2 or $2.50. Increase the price of
your coffee as the week progresses to make more money via
word of mouth customers.
