State-level Coffee Shop Startup Guides Published Weekly
About once a week for the next year, we will post a series of state-level coffee shop startup guides on our website.
The series kicks off with guides on three of the states with the biggest opportunities – Texas, Ohio, and North Carolina.
“Although the fundamentals of coffee shop operation remain the same from state to state, the economic opportunities, business formation and licensing requirements vary widely,” said Crimson Cup Founder and President Greg Ubert.
“We’re excited to share information and resources to help entrepreneurs expedite their startup journey.”
“If you run into any roadblocks or just want to discuss your vision with a coffee expert, you can reach our startup team by calling 1-888-800-9224,” he added.
The 7 Steps to Coffee Shop Success
Greg initially wrote his book, Seven Steps to Success: A Common-sense Guide to Succeed to Specialty Coffee, to help struggling coffee shop customers master all aspects of successful coffee shop operations.
“As a coffee roaster and coffee business consultant, Crimson Cup believes our company only succeeds when our customers do,” he said. “As a result, we support coffee shop owners at every step, from concept through opening day and beyond.”

Greg’s book became the foundation of our 7 Steps to Success coffee shop startup program.
