Good deal. Best of luck to you, sir.

Now that I think about it, I believe I read about Starbucks driving up independent coffee house sales in one of my MBA textbooks. If I can find it, I’ll post it to you.

Thanks for the encouragement. I’ve heard similar stories about people opening burger shops near new McDonald’s. They let McDs do all the market/demographic research and then locate nearby.

I also have a family, a full time job as well as going to school for a bachelors in business management. Good thing I can by coffee in bulk!
