new cold brew coffee venture

askthecoffeeguy

Dont want to be seen as a shameless self promoter and feel free to pull this other mods if ive crossed the line - but there's been a bit of interest in my cold brew enterprise - so I thought id put it out there - and then folks can think and say what they like!

Website just went live yesterday - and Ive had my first sale already!

Its taken me two days to get the website up and running, which is not long in the scheme of things - but there's still a lot of fine tuning and tweaking to do

im not all that tech savvy but i will say that the navigational software for creating the website is not at all user friendly and it took me many hours of trial and error to wind up with the 'finished product' - and if you asked me how i got there or to duplicate the layout again Im not sure i could do it - it was more a case of good fortune than any real skill or expertise on my part

still need to work on my packaging - im changing the branding and labels completely - but i figured that there's no time like the present - so i made that fearful leap into the dark - and so far so good!

see what you think - im open to feedback and suggestions:

Looking good Pat, hope the venture works out well.

Websites ok, but probably change catalog to BUY HERE or SHOP or something.  You only have one item, it's hardly a catalog of items. $7.95!  Does that include postage?  Bit pricey for my liking I'm afraid.  I could buy 2 espresso coffees for that. Not much info about the actual coffee you are using either. Good luck anyway mate.  Are you still in the cafe game?  Last time you posted you were playing with levers, but didn't say where.

No I finished up in December I'm the cafe / roadstery I was managing since then I've been on family holiday and doing some casual barista work No price does not include postage - postage is not cheap for a single item but gets cheaper with multiple purchases Retail price reflects realistic costs of production and is comparable to similar products out there I also plan to get my product range variety up and to get my products into stores when I increase my production Early days and baby steps so far ...

As you say, early days yet, plenty of time to fine tune.

yeah Im still waiting on proper labels, and different bottle sizes, and more varied range - but all that will come with time! at least the product is delicious according to the feedback Ive received so far! P
