The Companion CD ROM is invaluable !!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Open a Financially Successful Coffee, Espresso & Tea Shop with Companion CD-ROM (Paperback)
The book is great and the most updated on the subject - but the CD rom included with the book is superb and a very nice added bonus! It contains a full 50+ page business plan in Word for easy editing with financial statements, over 50 customized forms for your use in PDF format, and a check list of thousands of items you need to open - these are all bonus items included on the CD ROM !!!We have looked at other business plans and software and all were over $100.00 - this is a great value - my only comment is the book is so packed with info. the type size is a little small for my aging eyes...

Great resource,
By World Tea House ""taste the world in a cu... (Halifax, NS, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Open a Financially Successful Coffee, Espresso & Tea Shop with Companion CD-ROM (Paperback)
This book was a great help when writing up our business plan for our tea house. It is mostly focused on the coffee industry and cafes, but the fundamentals are basically the same for any hot beverage service business. The CD was helpful if only for the format of a business plan and financials for the average Joe starting out new to the cafe business.
