I purchased into the Coffee News Franchise first because I love the positivity of it and want to spread that positivity around. People smile when they see me delivering and can't wait to read that true story, neat fact, or joke in the humor section.
A one page weekly publication printed for those that are waiting at the restaurant, coffee shop, dentist office, library, pharmacy, and more. Anywhere there is a seating area or line of people waiting. At the side, permission based advertising in the form of a 3 in x 2 in space.
One of my goals once I get past the operations cost is to be able to contribute to local organizations and be a positive impact in the local community. I have already networked with a number of them.
I have three different areas which I was advised to start at the same time.
People love the publication but there is only one me and with three Editions/Area. I spend the majority of my time driving and delivering the publication. I love this as I love traveling and being outside, talking to people while being a positive impact.
I also love the other side of Coffee News which is talking with local small businesses and hearing their stories and their whys as I let them know about the opportunity to advertise. With 24 hours in a day, I do not get the opportunity of the sales side as much. I am focusing on strategic solutions such as printing and delivering more than one weekly issue so later this week I will be delivering the week of Oct 9th and Oct 16th at the same time. -UPDATE- I got both delivered at once and it did help out with providing some extra time.
I always talk about my advertisers on my website and social media, I help them with their own social media and marketing if they ask for it. For example, teaching Facebook to one of my clients. Creating posts for them. Finding local opportunities such as events to attend.
-Update-Networking with my distribution locations (places that carry Coffee News) and planning for an upcoming event
Future goals are to achieve sales, get assistance with delivery by contract help one week out of the month allowing me to focus on sales alone and also increase locations. I plan to create email newsletters for both my distribution locations and my advertisers and send out a business event letter every month. -update- Might have some one able to help with delivery-
I am asking for $700 so I can tackle future printing projects and keep Positively Print LLC going.
Well it is time to go brag about my advertisers and the deliver more Coffee News.
Please consider helping and funding towards my Entrepreneurial Dream as I want to make that positive impact in my local community.
