Almost every penny that every coffee bar owner spends to attract paying customers is wasted; you might as well toss your money down the drain with this morning's used coffee grounds.

Let’s start your restaurant legacy right now, right here! National chains and single independent restaurants all started with an individual and an idea. A concept. A dream. Small ideas can grow into big business. Who would have thought that a guy with a milkshake machine could start a hamburger empire? A pizza made in a garage would start today’s pizza wars? A guy with a pressure-cooker would start a fried chicken phenomena? Business ownership has always been part of the all-American dream. Restaurants are the largest entrepreneurial opportunity in America for starting the dream.

This was phenomenal. Being in corporate most my life and always being in and out of coffee shops with business; I’ve always been curious about the adventure of owning my own coffee shop. This book makes all of that so much more clear in easy to understand chapters. I highly recommend this to anybody interested in owning a grand coffee shop or just a casual java lover. 5/5!
