Training & Support

Operations:
The Operations team provides the hands-on experience that helps franchisees understand how to implement a cost-effective program in their stores by monitoring cost of goods, labor costs, equipment maintenance and hiring solid managers and personable barista team members.

Training:
Every franchisee and his or her store manager spends two weeks at the home offices and in a store going through a structured training course that includes product preparation, personnel development and store operations. In addition, our training team spends the opening week in the stores with the manager and barista team. The goal is to ensure drinks are made to our standards and that the people who prepare those drinks provide the amazing experience customers will share with others.

Marketing:
Long before a new location opens, the marketing team is creating awareness about the store with banners, social media and concentrated publicity. Once it's open, grand opening campaigns are implemented and are designed to create an instant customer base in the surrounding area.

Products & Distribution:
Owning our own coffee roasting company, Harvest Roasting, insures control over product quality, pricing and timely/consistent delivery to the stores. Harvest has developed a reputation for its superior bean quality and roasting methods.

Support Continues Beyond Opening Week
Franchisees always have access to the Franchise Support Team for ongoing training, questions and advice. Annual and quarterly franchise meetings give franchisees and their management teams the opportunity to learn about new programs, sample products, receive training and share information.
