Design Coffee Shop will begin operations in July 2009. Plans also include undertaking a small expansion with 6-8 months of beginning operations.”

Brief outline of your business concept:

Design Coffee Shop is a company involved with providing quality item in an origiral setting. It provides graphic design and marketing communication services. it not provide big business . It isa small local business, not a major corpoaration.
We target the students who need a nice quiet cozy place to think and do their work. Also, students who wanted to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee and relax & while looking at murals or listening to music. It will disply the work of 4 graphic designesr and represent our arts.
In the past, people would not spend more than 50 cents for a cup of coffee. For a few years, now they glad to pay $1 to $4 for their cappuccino, mocha latte or vanilla ice blended drink
The specialty-coffee business is growing at a healthy pace.
The competive, companies include Starbucks, The Coffee Bean, Pet’s, Dietrich’s and other major chains, who serve average quality drinks in establishments that have the same generic design appearance. Indeed, Starbucks and The Coffee Bean are often referred to as “fast food” coffeehouses due to their “cookie cutter” design. Now that Americans’ coffee preferences have broadened and matured, many are asking for more from their coffee shop. Design Coffee Shop can fill this need for more sophisticated shop.

Industry Overview
Market Research
There are other businesses that serve only coffee in our town
Size of the Industry
Nationally, the coffee shop industry is quite large, but in somearea, there are more.
Trends
This industry is booming at the present time, and there is a trend toward small cozy places and away from the large generic chains.
Industry Outlook
The coffee business does not show signs of slowing down. With new innovations such as flavorings and additives, it should continue for a long time.
Marketing Strategy
Target Markets
Our target market is a artist and writers who need a nice quiet cozy place to think and do their work.
Description of Key Competitors
Of the three coffee shops in the area, one is a large chain with a very expensive product, one is really a home-style restaurant, and the last one, our biggest competitor is an antique store with a “tea room”.
Analysis of Competitive Position
Our pricing strategy and comfortable atmosphere will be the key to our success. None of the other shops in the area can offer this.
Pricing Strategy
We will offer three sizes of drinks, small $1.00, medium $1.50 and large $2.00.
Our cookies and brownies will sell for $1.00 each and selling a booket of artwork for $10.00

Management and Staffing
Organizational Structure
Our organizational structure will be a simple pyramid style with the owners putting in as much work as the employees. Pyrimid a tall hierarchical structure, in other words, then I would be the boss, with a general manager working as your employee, who has a team, that on its turn supervises the employees. I think I mean a Flat structure (with the owners being “one of the guys”)
Management Team
April and Arlene will share management and supervisory responsibilities equally. Arlene for the morning shift. April for the afternoon shift.
Staffing
We will hire two busboys and two waitresses; these will be recruited from the local high school.
Labor Market Issues
In this area there are many high school students looking for work, part time or full time, we want to fill that need.

Market Risks
The main risk is monetary. The area may not be ready for a place like ours and we may not do a great business.
Implementation Plan
Implementation Activities and Dates

A relaxing, upscale interior design
Prime site selection with an upscale affluent population, year-round tourist activity, heavy pedestrian traffic by the site, a dynamic student population and a concentration of local businesses

Notify local newspaper your grand opening will be (no advertising cost, you’ll be swamped!)
4. Purchase and setup equipment 2/15/09 (This is mentioned above.)
5. Open for business 7/1/09

Financial Plan
Balance Sheet
Current Assets:
Building $150,000
5 computer $5,995

Furnishings $5,000 if I go for a good atmosphere, you’ll need more than that probably, unless you get money from the government (you are promoting culture in the end!)

This would assume 20 pots of coffee sold a day, plus an assortment of other items. This also assumes the market will not increase or decrease due to weather or economics. This would be an average month.

GardenersCardiff answers:

An “executive summary” is the first part of a management report. In accordance with its name, it is designed to summarize the key findings and recommendations for executives who are too busy to study the entire report.

We recommend that you write the body of the report, before you begin the Executive Summary. Most management reports end with a series of findings, options and recommendations (or conclusions, for investigative reports).

After the main body of the report is complete, then outline the Executive Summary. On effective way to draft the outline in a series of bullet points, in which each bullet equates to a single sentence or idea from each section of the report. Then expand each bullet point into a complete sentence.

Finally, you should place your Executive Summary at the very beginning of your report, rather than at the end. You are correct in assuming that both the Executive Summary and the concluding paragraph of your report are very similar in content: nonetheless, the Executive Summary belongs at the beginning of the report, in order to serve its purpose as providing a summary for busy executives.

Hope this helps.

Ruth asks…

OLD AGE….Something to look forward to?

Reporters interviewing a 104-year-old woman:
‘And what do you think is the best thing
About being 104?’ the reporter asked.
She simply replied, ‘No peer pressure.’

The nice thing about being senile is
You can hide your own Easter eggs.

I’ve sure gotten old!
I’ve had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement,
New knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes
I’m half blind, Can’t hear anything quieter than a jet engine,
Take 40 different medications that
Make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts.
Have bouts with dementia ….
Have poor circulation;
Hardly feel my hands and feet anymore.
Can’t remember if I’m 85 or 92
Have lost all my friends. But, thank Goodness
I still have my driver’s license.

I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape,
So I got my doctor’s permission to
Join a fitness club and start exercising.
I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors.
I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But,
By the time I got my leotards on,
The class was over.

It’s scary when you start making the same noises
As your coffee maker.

My memory’s not as sharp as it used to be.
Also, my memory’s not as sharp as it used to be.

Always Remember This:
You don’t stop laughing because you grow old,
You grow old because you stop laughing!!

GardenersCardiff answers:

The Leotard part was great……I know the feeling Ha.Ha. Thanks for making me laugh…. I should reach 100 as I`m always laughing at silly things.

The next day, you ring his doorbell again, this time bearing gifts: bread, so he never goes hungry, salt, so his life aways has flavor and a candle, so he always has light (as the old saying goes). He laughs, thanks you, and invites you to dinner that night. You happily accept and, over the next six months, see more and more of him. Soon, you’re moving in together (his apartment, since he just got everything settled and doesn’t really want to move again) and are head-over-heels in love.
One night, your boyfriend takes you to one of the most exclusive restaurants in the city and asks you to marry him. You are stunned, but manage to croak out a reasonably audible “Yes!”. You are married on (6)______ __ (month and day) and your wedding dress looks like (7)______

Mary asks…

Would you like to read a letter? Perhaps write one of your own? c/c?

Dearest Nan,

I picked some tangerines from
your tree, just now –
and of course thought of you.
Mother says you planted
a seed in a pot of dirt
at your house in Tennessee.

The seed grew into a tiny tree
and you sent it with her
to Florida.
You would be so surprised!
The tree is now taller
than the house.
But Nan, something happened
to the fruit. Although
perfectly formed,they
somehow became
miniaturized and are now
the size of a large shooter marble.

Anyway they are the perfect size
for my bottle of beer. And
I know you didn’t hold
with drinking, but
Cheers to you up
in Heaven, anyway.

I know you have the cleanest halo,
perfectly dust-free, of anyone there.
And I hope you can now eat
more fattening things
than tangerines and
steamed broccoli,
with lemon juice.
Oh and I am sure
one cup of coffee
will not hurt you.

‘Til next time,
All my love,
Beth

GardenersCardiff answers:

I’m comfortable just reading yours.
Reminds of a letter Will Rogers wrote. Wish I could remember it.

Very nice

David asks…

What kind of pisser are you? List available for men, women pls make your own list,,?

I’m more of the tough guy type,,,

Absent Minded: Opens his vest, pulls out his tie, and pisses in his pants.

Clever: Uses no hands, shows off by fixing tie with both hands, looks around for admiration, and sometimes ends up pissing on the floor and onto his shoes.

Cross-eyed: Looks into urinal on the left, pisses into the one in the center, and flushes the one on the right.

Desperate: Waits in a long time, teeth floating and feet shuffling. Starts to piss as he walks up to urinal but before he can unzip himself. Lets out a long groan and grunt as he finally gets to relieve himself.

Disgruntled: Stands for a while, grunts, gives up, and walks away.

Drunk: Holds left thumb in right hand and pisses into his pants.

Easily induced: Any thought, mention, sight, or slosh of a liquid, from sipping coffee to a runny nose, causes bladder to immediately signal full condition.

Efficient: Waits until he has to crap, then does both at once.

Erect: Either because his bladder is full or he just saw a sexy woman, his penis is so erect that he must thrust his buttocks backward a bit to be able to pull his member out of his pants. Gets pubic hair caught up in his zipper.

Excitable: Shorts half twisted around, cannot find the hole, and ends up ripping his shorts or jamming the zipper into his shirttail.

Flashy: Tells loud jokes while pissing; shakes off drops with a great flourish.

Frivolous: Plays stream up and down and across the urinal. Likes to see how many bubbles he can make froth up. Tries to hit and sink the cigarette floating around in the water. Has never really grown up.

Indifferent: If all the urinals are being used, he goes into a toilet stall to piss. If all the toilet stalls are taken also, he pisses into the sink or garbage can.

Little: Stands on a box to piss into the urinal, falls in, drowns.

Nosey: Looks into the next urinal to compare himself with the other guy’s organ.

Patient: Stands very close for a long time waiting, reading the paper with his free hand.

Playful: Spots a friend’s shoes under the divider wall and redirects aim accordingly.

Scientific: Backs up from the urinal to take a long shot, misses, and pisses on shoes.

Slob: Does not bother to flush urinal after using it, drips all over his shoes and pants when zipping himself back up, and does not bother to wash hands as he leaves with his fly undone. Usually has to adjust his balls afterwards as he is sitting down.

Sneak: Farts silently while pissing, acts very innocent, and knows that the man next to him will be blamed.

Sociable: Joins friends in piss whether he has to go or not.

Timid: Cannot urinate if someone is watching, pretends to, and then flushes the urinal as if he has already used it. Sneaks back in once everyone has left the restroom.

Tough: Bangs dick against side of urinal to dry it.

Worried: Is not sure of what he has been into lately and makes a quick inspection.

OK, you’re on the right track, but you have GLARING spelling and grammar problems. This reads like someone who has only been speaking English for 3-5 years.

For example:
“Design coffer shop” under the “Name”
“Design coffee shop it well began operations in November 2009, and we going to prepare the plans to undertake a small expansion.” Instead of “Design coffee shop will begin operations in November 2009, and we going to prepare the plans to undertake a small expansion.” You might even try “Design Coffee Shop will begin operations in November 2009. Plans also include undertaking a small expansion with 6-8 months of beginning operations.”

Also, what do you mean by “an assortment of other items” as part of you monthly income? Are these the cookies and donuts, or will you be selling the art as well?

You have Employee Taxes, but what about Employee payroll?

Where are you getting your start up capitol for renovations?

Do you money set aside for Rent?

Where in the country is this shop going to be? This will greatly affect your income and expenses.
