Title: One Less Downtown Coffee Shop
Post by: jay on December 20, 2012, 07:55:08 PM
Did the coffee shop inside 20 Federal Place lose its magic?

Are the coffee wars over?

Are we to believe the shop with a coffee monopoly couldn't survive?

Must have been some really bad coffee.

Their business plan model failed.  Another one will step in to take its place.

Way too many people that attempt to start a business have no idea what goes into creating a business plan. It takes a ton of time and knowledge of the market to start a business and have it get off the ground successfully.

People need to do some due diligence before they attempt to start a business. It is a lot tougher than people think.

I recommend taking some business courses at YSU before you ever start a business.

When it became know that other Food Court eateries were no longer allowed to sell coffee after the MM moved in, many customers joined the informal boycott.
