Coffee Shop Business Plan B worked for me !
Everyday I am encouraged to hear from people who have re-invented themselves and gone on to run profitable business‘.

When people come to JumpinGoat Coffee Roasters retail store in Helen, Georgia’s Nacoochee Village, often times I have a chance to speak with them one-on-one and I always try to understand what people and their families are experiencing out there.

I want to know what they see, what they feel, and what they hear about our economy.

The most pervasive belief among these folks is that they have no appreciable respect for big business any longer. Big business, and old media  have lost their footing…They have been found out by the American people, and a significant portion of relevance has shifted back to small to medium business. What I see and hear is that the ground is swelling with a new sense of trust in small or “locally owned” business. I am also seeing a sincere interest and curiosity in the rise of entrepreneurial spirit.

My sense is that small business, and cottage industries will see a very strong comeback in the years to come…largely born from job loss. Like my own story seen on ABC International News – Coffee Business Plan B, and CNN Live…people are realizeing that “The Free Enterprise System” is alive and well. I see many positive people rising to the economic challenges that face us all.

Let’s face it, “jobs” are in short supply, but we still have our freedom. I know people who have turned down promotions because they would rather pursue their dreams than money or title. Independence, your independence, is only as strong as you are willing to make it.  People want their freedom back…people want America back.
Trust me when I tell you you will never know greater independence, freedom, or a greater liberty than when you are standing on ground that you have won !

ABC World News executive producer BETH TRIBOLET and Business Correspondent BETSY STARK came all the way from New York City with Cast and crew to tell my story. It’s a story of hope. The story, my story, is not without it’s challenges. Everyone should have a Plan “B”. This is My Coffee Business Plan B, and I hope you enjoy it. Here is the video that aired at ABC<
