These will tell you the story behind the café or coffee shop you’re looking to purchase.

More often than not the buying and selling of a business is not an equitable win win scenario. Usually it is either an inexperienced business purchaser overpaying for a business or an exhausted and frustrated flailing business owner cutting their losses and selling for what they can. The key to buying business is to ensure you are not driven by emotion and purchasing the café or coffee shop on the ‘look and feel’ of the shop or the taste of their coffee. The new business must tick all of your boxes not just some. Purchasing low will give you a greater return on investment, and a greater probability of selling your business down the track for more than you purchased it. This is one of the easiest ways to make money in your new business.
