It goes a long way!Your coffee shop can survive a lot, but these three mistakes will straight-up bury you if you make them early. In this episode of the Valor Coffee Podcast, we’re back together in our new brew lab to break down the big one-way decisions: picking the wrong location, spending your budget in the wrong places, and hiring a manager too soon. We’ve been building Valor for 10 years (coffee cart → two cafés + wholesale), and we’re sharing the stuff we wish someone had drilled into us before we signed leases and bought gear. If you’re starting a café (or trying to stabilize one), this is the kind of episode that can save you months of pain and a lot of money. Subscribe, drop your “third point” in the comments, and go watch our new 3-hour “How to Start a Coffee Shop” masterclass.This week's episode is brought to you by our friends at Odeko: Use our code VALOR10 for 10% off your first supply order!
