Most new mobile coffee entrepreneurs hit the same wall: they don’t understand the numbers.
They dive into carts, trailers, or trucks without knowing their cost per cup, monthly expenses, or real profit potential. The result? Stress, wasted money, and businesses that never get off the ground.
This class fixes that problem — quickly and thoroughly, with minimal effort on your part.
In just a few focused lessons, you’ll go from confusion to clarity. You’ll know exactly what your business can earn, how much it will cost you, and whether your idea is truly profitable.
Here’s what we cover:
- Lesson 1: Business Concept
- Define your mobile coffee model — cart, trailer, or truck — and map out what you’re selling, who you’re serving, and how you’ll operate. This sets the foundation for all your numbers.
- Lesson 2: Cost of Goods (COGS)
- Calculate the real cost per cup, per drink category, and per hour of production. We’ll break it down into ingredients, cups, and labor so you see your exact margins.
- Lesson 3: Monthly Expenses
- Identify fixed and variable expenses: permits, insurance, fuel, commissary, marketing, and more. We’ll highlight often-overlooked costs that surprise most first-time owners.
- Lesson 4: Profit Calculator
- Use our plug-and-play calculator to combine your costs and sales. With just a few entries, you’ll see your actual profit potential for different sales volumes.
- Lesson 5: Profit Projections
- Apply your calculator results across different business models — events, catering, or daily routes — to see which path delivers the best returns for you.
- Lesson 6: Funding Options
- Explore simple, realistic ways to raise capital: loans, grants, low-cost setups, or bootstrapping. Learn which methods are best suited to coffee startups.
- Lesson 7: Build vs. Buy Decisions
- Decide if building your own setup or purchasing a ready-made cart/trailer is the smarter move. We’ll compare costs, timelines, and risks.
- Lesson 8: Next Steps & Resources
- Pull everything together into a clear action plan. Access templates, calculators, and advanced training options to move forward with confidence.
By the end of this course, you’ll walk away with:
- A full breakdown of your business costs.
- A clear picture of your profit potential.
- The confidence to move forward knowing your idea is financially sound.
No fluff. No wasted time. Just the numbers you need to know — delivered simply and powerfully.
