Debbie and Skip are both former excutives of technology companies,
experienced coaches and mentors.
Debbie left her great job at Intel Corporation in February
2003 to start and operate her own coffee shop and espresso cafe
business. Skip kept his full-time job to help cover family
expenses while the coffee shop was ramping up.
After spending $6,000 on so-called espresso "guru" consultants
to help them get their newly acquired coffee shop business up
and running, they found that little of the expert advice they
received was of much value.
What we really needed was to answer the questions: what
are the pitfalls, potholes and gotcha areas that could undermine
our business? We needed recipes, ingredients, suppliers,
inventory quantities, vendors, and the practical advice related
to our commercial property lease, government regulations, signage
and dozens of other practical matters that NEVER
came from our hotshot consultants.
After operating our espresso coffee shop in the Phoenix, Arizona
area for more than a year, we decided to help other similar
"regular" folk like ourselves by sharing our experiences.
With your order of our book, Espresso Business Mistakes, you
will also receive our blockbuster bonus package of forms, spreadsheets,
checklists, menus, recipes and marketing materials.
But that's not enough. We know, as we've been where you
are.
So we are offering, for a limited time, to include one hour
of telephone consulting included with your order, free email
support and a bonus package of Debbie & Skip's 29 proven
process, checklist, recipes, inventory lists and more documents
and spreadsheets.
One recent client was so impressed with our open and honesty,
they hired us to help manage their entire coffee shop startup
project.
We will help in whatever way we can - so YOU don't get ripped
off, walk into deep dark holes or end up getting bamboozled
by slick talking salespeople.
