Create a Plan The first step to starting a successful business is creating a solid plan. A business plan spells out what business you have, how you plan to make profit, explores competitors, and provides strategies for troubleshooting in case you need help to achieve your goals.

Before you start drafting a traditional business plan, you should create a pitch that will allow you to validate your business idea.

Choose The Perfect Location Having a great location is very important to ensure the success of your business. The place should be easily accessible and should be centrally located. If you are franchising or buying an existing business the location is pre-selected but you should still do your research and decide whether the existing or selected location is a good one.

Serve The Best Quality Products You need to serve quality products consistently if you want to take over the market. ● ● ● ● ●

Start Networking Having a good location and selling good coffee will only take you so far. You need to let people know about your business to attract more customers. You could join the local charity and give out free coffee so that people can know about your business.

Market Yourself In order to be successful, you need to market yourself properly. Create a brand name. You will need nice packaging for your products. Research has shown packaging plays a major role in deciding whether a customer will buy something or not.
