The coffee shop management course program

Chapter o1 - The location analysis
No location is wrong, no concept is wrong, sometimes the mistake is to cross these two factors incorrectly. Let's find out how to evaluate the best location for our project. Attention, it is a step that takes time, but it can become your most dangerous mistake.

Chapter 02 - Business plan and Break Even Point
After the analysis of the location, it is time to do some math. We evaluate the possible incomes and the percentage incidence of the costs, up to obtaining a break even point, the reference point of our project.

Chapter 03 - Marketing: Creating a successful Coffee Shop
The task of those who do business is to understand which target they are aiming at, and what are the needs of this target, sometimes hidden and linked to psychology of it.
But at the end of the day, the secret is… Let's close ourselves in the laboratory, and let's invent something extraordinary!

Chapter 04 - Before the Opening…
Furnish the venue based on the type of target and offer, structure the right communication, think about what are the best machines and equipment for our venue ... all the things to think about before opening.

Chapter 05 -  Daily management
Managing the customer, the communication, the staff, the suppliers, keeping food costs under control ... Let's see what are the thousand details of daily management.

Fantastic course on coffee machine maintenance, learned a lot in the short amount of time the course runs. Robert is a great teacher, easy going, explains things well and answers all questions. All other staff members we met during the course were also incredibly polite and welcoming. Well worth the travel.

I would like to thank the academy for providing a qualitative formation in a time where such things are difficult to find and sadly underrated.I would also like to particularly commend Robert, our teacher, who has managed to show me in a very short amount of time a wealth of accessible and comprehensible information on a difficult subject. He is awesome, poised, didactic, knowledgeable, approachable and generally very pleasant to be around.

Excellent experience, recommended to all those who want to expand their knowledge of the world of coffee. I was followed by Professor Michele Cantarella at the Castorino roasting company and here I had the opportunity to see the roasting, to taste many types of coffee, to learn the basics ofMilk art.

I’ve been planning to follow my passion for coffee with a professional training course and I found what I was looking for at The Espresso Academy. From the start Cristiana was very helpful for planning and booking this course for me, responding promptly and making it easier for my needs. During the course Gabriele was doing his best for me to get the most of this course, he was very kind, helpful and attentive. He went above and beyond to give the best experience. It was obviously about the coffee and the passion of coffee rather than just another commercial training course. , I really enjoyed every moment and learned a lot. I also gained confidence in my knowledge and skills. Thank you Espresso Academy.

Took the two day advanced barista course and it exceeded my expectations. Great teachers, great content, and even though it was a short course we got plenty of time to practice actual coffee making without sparing milk. And a bonus is the opportunity to meet coffee students from all over the world, that most likely share similar goals to yours. Highly recommend for anyone getting into coffee business.

I've attended many courses at Espresso Academy Firenze and I loved it! The staff is incredibly friendly and the courses very nice structured. Theory and lots of practice and we could even visit the roastery! The whole place smells of coffee :) During the pandemic I've also attended a couple Online Courses which were great and the teacher answered all the questions. I totally recommend going there to learn about coffee and become friends with the most amazing teachers :) Hope to see you soon guys!!
