What you'll actually learn

Not theory. Not motivation. The real playbook for opening a coffee shop that survives year one.

Module 01

Business Plan That Banks Accept

Financial projections, break-even analysis, and cost templates built by someone with actual fintech experience. Not a fill-in-the-blank worksheet.

Module 02

Location, Lease, and Buildout

How to evaluate a location, negotiate a commercial lease, and plan a buildout without blowing your budget in the first month.

Module 03

Equipment and Supply Chain

What to buy, what to lease, and where to source beans. Real vendor comparisons with actual price ranges.

Module 04

Operations and Staffing

Hiring your first barista, setting schedules, managing inventory, and building systems that run without you behind the counter every day.

Module 05

Marketing on a Shoestring

Local marketing strategies that actually work for coffee shops. Social media, community events, loyalty programs. No "go viral" nonsense.

Module 06

Survive Year One

Cash flow management, seasonal adjustments, and the hard truths about margins. The stuff nobody tells you until it's too late.

Built for people who are serious about this

Career Changers

You have savings, you have drive, and you've been thinking about this for years. You need a structured path, not another YouTube rabbit hole.

Side Hustlers Ready to Go Full-Time

Maybe you're roasting beans on weekends or running a pop-up. Time to learn the business side before you sign a lease.

Couples and Family Teams

Opening a cafe together is a dream. BrewSchool gives you a shared framework so you're building a business, not just arguing about tile colors.

Existing Owners Who Want to Level Up

Your shop is open but your margins are thin. The financial tools and operations modules are built for you too.

Your coffee shop starts with knowing the numbers

Every great cafe began with someone who understood the business before they picked out the espresso machine. BrewSchool is that understanding, distilled into courses you can take from your kitchen table.
