Before setting up my Really Awesome Coffee franchise I was an analytical chemist. I became bored of this and sought a change that would give me more of a work/life balance.
I felt fully equipped to 'hit the ground running' after my initial franchise set-up and training. The guys at head office have always been available to offer help and support to me when needed.
"I really enjoy the rapport I have with my customers; I think that is the best part of the hob for me"
My working week consists of about 25 hours on the coffee van serving customers on my daily route and about the same at home running and managing other parts of the business.
I really enjoy the rapport I have with my customers; I think that is the best part of the job for me - I love chatting to them!
The van always gets admiring glances and comments - people love the coffee van! The EPoS till system looks very professional and the rear awning is functional and encourages people to come out in all weathers.
It always makes me smile when people say my coffee is amazing - for me that is a real 'stand out' moment every time!
You need to do your research and put in hard work as with any business but it is all worthwhile
