How We Will Support You
Site Selection
Just Love Coffee Cafe will guide you through the process of selecting the perfect location for your coffee shop, starting by analyzing your community to determine which areas have the demographics necessary to establish a successful business, to visiting sites, negotiating the Letter of Intent and working with your landlord to help secure the best possible terms for your new location.
Marketing
We will guide you through the process of online, digital, social media and traditional marketing platforms on an ongoing basis to help you effectively spread the word about your new business.
Buildout
We’ve designed an extremely user friendly buildout that can suit nearly any space, almost no matter the size. Because Just Love Coffee Cafe doesn’t require a full kitchen, our footprints are much smaller than other coffee shops, helping to keep rents low and the buildout an affordable part of the process. We can be as involved in the buildout as you need us to be: recommending contractors to overseeing the finished product.
Grand Opening
Members of the Just Love Coffee Cafe executive team will be on hand during your grand opening to help you in the early days of your new business.
“When you franchise with Just Love Coffee Cafe, you’re never alone,” says Alan Thompson, President of Just Love Coffee Cafe. “From the moment you join us, you become part of our family. We’re going to do everything we can to help you succeed — from the very beginning.”
Initial Training
You will come to our headquarters in Murfreesboro and our stores in Nashville, Tennessee, for intensive training, as we train you in everything about your new business. You will learn how to correctly pour and serve our specialty coffee, as well as our entire array of specialty beverages. You will learn how to correctly cook, prepare and serve our simple and inventive food menu. You will learn the machinery, the sales process and how to hire and train baristas who will not only serve your business well but will also forge meaningful connections with your customers.
