Executive Summary The Russet Cup will be a one of a kind coffee house / café located in Overland Park, Kansas. The 1,500 square foot café will be located in the newly constructed Market Square Plaza located on the northeast corner of 135th Street and Mission Street. The anchor tenant, the Price Chopper grocery store, has already taken occupancy and the excellent location brings more than 10,000 shoppers weekly.
The Russet Cup, aptly named for the aromatic brown liquid that will fill the cup, fills the void of original cafes in the market area, stands out from its corporate peers with their fast food concepts and fast services. The Russet Cup is the alternative to fast food/commercial/coffee shops and offers a much calmer, civilized gourmet coffee experience. There are no televisions in the café, the background music is subtle and work from local artists will hang on the walls. The café is well appointed with overstuffed leather chairs and sofas in a library like setting. The café is reminiscent of times gone by – yet is cutting edge technologically with WIFI and state of the art espresso machines.
The Russet Cup measures its financial success in terms of increased market share and in earnings. With a total local market of $54 million, this is a tremendous opportunity! The keys to success will be the ability to offer quality gourmet coffees, take advantage of its small size, and reliance on an outstanding barista staff. In order to achieve these goals, the café will offer some the area’s finest gourmet beans from local distributors. Because of its small size, the café can enjoy larger margins in the form of lower overhead. The cafe will hand select baristas and offer salaries comparable to the chains. In turn the baristas will be trained to cross-sell, and sell the higher margin products. Business Objectives The primary objectives of the business plan for Russet Cup are below: · To increase revenues $36,000 or 5% in Year 2 and by $73,000 or 10% by Year 3 · Achieve a profit margin of 5.2% in Year 2 and 6.90% by Year 3 · Be the Café of Choice in the Overland Park area and recipient of the Best Coffeehouse Award Mission Statement The Russet Cup is committed to its products and employees which they believe is the recipe for market success. Guiding Principles The Russet Cup is committed to values such as excellence, passion, quality, integrity and leadership which allow them to navigate challenges and provide for future opportunities. These core beliefs start with their commitment to their products and their employees. The Russet Cup rewards excellence and cherishes loyalty. The café will work with its employees to build strong businesses and a secure future.
Keys to Success The Russet Cup stands out from the competition. Below are their Keys to Success:
· Great Products – providing exemplary products at market prices – will make customers want to return again and again · Hire Quality Baristas – Pay employees rates similar to the larger chains with opportunities for long term careers and opportunities for advancement with long term plans to open a second facility · Convert Customers to Connoisseurs - Only 40% of the nations coffee drinkers consume premium ground and whole bean coffee – this will aid in continued growth

Product/Service Sourcing The Russet Cup has negotiated supplier agreements with several local food-service wholesalers and coffee wholesalers in the Overland Park area that have a reputation for quality and reliability: · Mean Beans Coffee Roasters · Overland Park Brewers · Healthy Harvest Bread Co. · Mary's Organics In the event that one of the aforementioned specialty suppliers cannot meet their needs, the following national suppliers can both provide all of the food-service products that they require. In addition, the following wholesalers will supply the café with general restaurant supplies: · Lawrence Food Products Corp. · Gerry Food Supply Inc. Inventory Management N/A Warehousing and Fulfillment N/A Future Products/Services Young families which comprise the third largest market share in Overland Park, are often overlooked in the coffee market. Coffeehouses traditionally have not been considered ‘kid’ friendly. To overcome this hurdle, the Russet Cup has long term plans (5 years) to open a 2nd coffee shop: A combination indoor play area / coffee bar. This concept allows parents and caregivers an opportunity to meet and relax with other adults while the children can enjoy the indoor playground amenities.
Additional future services will include in-store sales for home purchase as well as an online store.
The website will have an option to purchase prepaid gift card program – Prepaid gift cards not only provide immediate cash, but also reduce credit card transaction charges and draw new customers to the business.

Main Competitors
Roasterie Café 4511 W 119th St http://www.theroasterie.com/Cafe/
This competitor has been operating in the greater MSA since 2005 opening its first café in Brookside, Kansas and then at the Leawood location in 2010. The 3,300 square foot café offers an assortment of pastries, bagels and cookies. Beverages include Harney and Sons teas, signature blends, espresso and specialty drinks. The café has 11 employees and generated $11 million in revenues in 2011. The subject’s advantage is its smaller, cozier environment.
Take Five Coffee Bar 5336 W 151st St http://www.takefivecoffeebar.com/Welcome_to_Take_Five_Coffee_Bar This competitor operates from a 3,300 square foot space. The café has WI-FI. In addition to serving coffees and smoothies, the café offers more food offerings with a full service kitchen offering light breakfasts, and sandwiches and wraps. In the evenings the café has musicians performing on a small stage. The Café also has a full liquor license. The broad offerings of amenities do not make this a true comp for the subject. Homer’s Coffee House 7126 W 80th St http://www.homerscoffeehouse.com/about.php
This competitor operates from a 6,300 square foot space in a shopping center. The shop was established in 2001 and in 2011 reported $2 million in revenues. The shop employs 21 employees and provides music on the weekends. The subject’s advantage is its smaller, cozier, and quieter environment.
Morning Glory Espresso 5606 Johnson Dr http://www.morninggloryespresso.com/
This competitor is similar in size to the subject operating from 900 square feet in a retail shopping center. The Morning Glory Espresso has been operational since 2005 and has 3 employees and reported revenues of $300,000 in 2011. The coffee shop is open 6 days a week and open for breakfast. The shop has a full kitchen and in addition to pastries provides traditional breakfast offerings. The store is for sale, which could potentially impact market share.
Revo Cup Coffee 11030 Quivira Rd Overland Park, KS 66210-1239 http://revocup.com/blog/
This competitor occupies a 2,100 square foot shop and has 7 employees. In 2011 its annual sales were reported to be $700,000. The Revo Cup is a specialized roaster. The owners from Ethiopia roast the Ethiopian coffee in the store themselves, providing a truly unique roasted coffee experience. Due to its unique roasting methods, and its limited food offerings, the subject should do well against this competitor.
Daily Dose Coffee and Bar 12056 W 135th St, Overland Park, KS
This competitor occupies 2,700 square feet in a strip center and has been in operation since 2003. The coffee shop/bar is open 7 days a week and has a full kitchen. The shop occasionally offers live music on the weekends. The shop employs 9 and reported revenues in excess of $900,000 in 2011.
Java Crossing 8830 W 95th St Overland Park, KS 66212-4051 This competitor leases a 2,700 square foot stand alone pad in a shopping center. The shop has drive throughs on both sides with a small walk up. The business was established in 2003 and is privately held. The store employs 9 and reported annual revenues of $900,000 in 2011. Known primarily for its convenience and breakfast sandwiches, this shop does not directly compete with the subject’s indoor sit down experience. Hattie’s Fine Coffees 4195 Somerset Dr Prairie Village, KS 66208-5242 http://www.hattiesfinecoffee.com/Home_Page.html Established in 2005, Hattie’s has a staff of 17 and annual revenues of $1,700,000. The store is larger than the subject and occupies 5,100 square feet. Hattie’s Menu options are similar to the subject with a focus primarily on coffee, lattes, pastries and simple breakfast sandwiches. The facility has a great reputation and following. To capture a portion of this market, the subject will have to convince these customers that a cozier and quieter atmosphere is a more enjoyable café experience.

Market Tests Research from Yelp, FourSquare, and GooglePlaces, indicates the Overland Park market is in need of a new local café. The locals have been clamoring for the current private shops to improve service and/or reduce prices to keep pace with larger chains and franchises, thus providing a unique niche for the right entrant.
While employed by a national restaurant chain, Mr. Jones was constantly directing patrons to offsite coffeehouses for those seeking that final dessert and cup of coffee prior to finishing their evening. This is the reason he ultimately began seeking the location for his coffee house. Market Needs Coffee shop customers, by nature, are looking for something special — that’s why they are willing to pay so much for a cup of coffee! Many customers of the big national chains, while satisfied with their daily coffee would be intrigued to find a local coffee that is different. (SBA National Information Clearinghouse)
Market Trends · Unique products (specialized roasts, local ingredients, locally themed or named drinks, custom drinks by the‘star’ barista, etc.) · Games, puzzles, mind benders and other activities that encourage customers to linger over their coffee · Hosting or sponsoring local events (entertainment, readings, book clubs, etc.) · Using technology to creatively compete in marketing with the big chains — services like FourSquare, Yelp, and Google Places can increase visibility in the local market. · Delivering amazing service from knowledgeable baristas — spend lots of time training staff and utilize online services like the American Coffee & Barista School · Selling coffee-related items (and track down any co-marketing opportunities with a local community college or other student-related group in the area) Market Growth Despite the economic woes, 37% of total coffee consumed in the United States in 2011 was classified as “Gourmet.” According to the National Coffee Drinking Study This suggests consumers were set on drinking good coffee and visiting their local coffee shop even in the face of an uncertain economy. (First Research)
The sales of coffee dominate sales of hot beverages, making up 83.3% of the total hot beverage market in the U.S. Coffee consumption is expected to increase through 2015 at an average annual rate of 2.7%, while tea consumption is expected to increase through 2015 at an average annual rate of 3.1%. Positive expectations for continued growth in coffee sales, despite its “mature” product position in the market, are due to the innovations in premium coffee products (pods, single-serving instants, etc.) (First Research) Positioning The Russet Mug will position itself as a local coffeehouse or a ‘suburban’ coffeehouse providing a sanctuary for those in the ‘burbs’ without the hassle of having to drive downtown · By charging similar prices as the large chains – the service and quality of the product will commensurate with the price · The Russet Cup is genuinely unique place to gather and meet friends, and enjoy coffee · Amenities such as free WIFI, chess games, comfy overstuffed chairs, create a relaxing environment · The market does not need a café offering fast food breakfasts or another after hours bar · The Russet Cup will position itself as the alternative to the chain/franchise/fast food coffee house.
SWOT Analysis The SWOT analysis examines the café’s strengths and weaknesses that need to be addressed. Further, this section examines the opportunities presented to Café as well as potential threats.
Strengths · Based on its smaller size, the fact that it is not a franchise, the Russet Cup is a unique coffee shop concept unlike any other in the Overland Park market. · The owner has firsthand experience, in operating and starting new restaurants, · Handpicked baristas will bring professionalism and enthusiasm to the shop.
Weaknesses · Franchises are the easiest way and often the safest conduit to start a café; the café will not have the backing of one of these established entities. · The Russet Cup has a minimal budget and is competing against larger and more established coffeehouses for market share.
Opportunities · The Overland Park demographics support the need for a unique coffee shop. · Additional opportunities to target the active and recently retired target market and 45 years+ age group. · A small slice of a much bigger pie is the goal. Only 40 percent of the nation’s coffee drinkers are consuming premium ground and whole bean coffee. Encouraging coffee drinkers to become coffee connoisseurs is the key to continued growth. · The local coffeehouse/café market is $54 million
Threats · The Morning Glory Coffee shop is currently for sale; should another independent purchase this café, it could pose significant threat to market share.
Strategy Pyramid · In the short-term, a number of promotions and activities are planned around launch of the business to create awareness. The coffee shop will have a contest offering 20 bottomless mugs and will publicize this promotion via radio advertising, as well as countertop displays and posters in the shopping plaza. · In addition, during its first year of operations the coffee shop will pass out a limited number of coupons for a free cup of coffee to prospective customers visiting the shopping center. Competitive Edge The Russet Cup’s competitive edge, its size, is also its greatest attribute. Because they are small there is no red tape, and they can easily adjust business hours to say accommodate an afterhours book reading session whereas the corporate chains do not provide such an accommodation. The Russet Cup will truly cater to its patrons needs. Positioning Statement The Russet Cup is a gourmet coffee lover’s gem. It is truly one of a kind coffee house offering outstanding gourmet coffees and blends, served by enthusiastic and knowledgeable baristas, in a warm, relaxed environment. It is the place to go to visit with friends or cozy up in a quiet corner with a good book either from the library or from one of the patron’s personal E-Books.
Pricing Strategy The Russet Cup primarily utilizes competition based pricing. The café does not utilize coupons and discounts (other than opening promotion) because they believe that the most valuable customer demographic of daily coffee consumers is not influenced by discount programs or coupons.
Website The Russet Cup will have a simple website identifying its menu items of gourmet coffees, smoothies and pastries, along with the address, map and hours of operation. The website will also have a calendar of any upcoming events or sponsorships . The site will also have links to their social media sites – such as Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.
Marketing Programs The café will also rely on signage and draw to its location. Price Chopper brings 10,000 shoppers weekly to its location. Sales Strategy The Russet Cup will use the following methods to increase sales revenue (as recommended by Andrew Hetzel on Better Coffee, Better Business): · The menu will focus on the most profitable products sold. The café will always draw customer attention to the most profitable products. · As warranted, the café will raise prices to bolster brand image. Prices communicate a perceived value of a product; so if set too low, the customers might assume that the beverages are inferior compared to the competition. · Monitor flavoring inventory – Excess flavoring inventory ties up capital and valuable back room space for storage. The café will utilize 4-6 varieties, including sugar free offerings. · Control waste and theft – audit sales and inventory reports to evaluate ingredient waste due to inefficient preparation, returned drinks and employee consumption. Retail locations can easily waste 20% or more of their daily sales these three key categories, which is a substantial and unnecessary loss. · Monitor and evaluate hours of operation · Run employee sales contests – The baristas are the salespeople and have a great deal of influence over the customer ordering process. All baristas will have some form of sales and customer service training to make each transaction active, rather than passive. Sales contests will emphasize high margin items or cross selling
Sales Forecast The sales forecast assumes a conservative 5% increase in revenues during Year Two and 10% increase in Year Three. The following chart shows estimated sales over the next three years.
Sales Programs The Russet Cup will run employee sales contests – The baristas are the salespeople and have a great deal of influence over the customer ordering process. All baristas will be required to have sales and customer service training to make each transaction. The sales contests will emphasize high margin items and cross selling. Legal The Russet Cup is organized as an S-Corporation formed in the state of Kansas. Milestones Listed below are the milestones for the Russet Cup:
Table 5.8 Milestones
Exit Strategy In the event the store would have to close for business all assets would be sold at auction. Organization and Management Organizational Structure The Russet Cup is formed as an S-Corporation wholly owned by Owen Jones. Management Team The Russet Cup will be owned 100% by Owen Jones. Mr. Jones a graduate of Kansas State University, has an undergraduate degree in business administration. During high school he worked as a waiter in a local hospital coffee shop that purchased its beans from a local roaster. In addition to being an avid coffee drinker himself, this job allowed him to learn about the business first-hand.

Management Team Gaps The Russet Cup will rely on its POS (Point of Sale) system to generate daily accounting and cost activity reports. Mr. Jones will supply these to an outside bookkeeper for preparation of annual income taxes. Personnel Plan Initially the café will hire 1 manager, 5 baristas, and 2 part time servers. In Year 2, the café plans to hire 1 additional full time barista.
