"Looks really interesting to me. It will be like any other coffee shop if they don't have events hosted at the cafe. Free Wi-fi is something I would look forward to. Not many cafes have that facility. :("

"Wow !!! What an nice topic to discuss Soumya!
It will defiantly work but would i to suggest one think that you can open store where B.School students traffic will be there. I think location will matter a lot."

"Anamika,
The stuff here is what I have lacked over the 5 something years that I am on my own. :) :)
I am working on something similar but not a cafe per se. Lets connect. You can add me on kunal.shah@brinkpointcreative.com or call on +919892195915…"

"Hey Soumya, Investments acc to me wont be THAT big. Videos can be streamed from YouTube. Stationery costs are not much for the forms. Self-Service will save costs. However, lets see how it all plays out...."

"Hi Neerja,
TiE does this & a lot more...I suggest you should google & check out TiE (don't know which city you are based in, but it has chapters worldwide across almost every major city).
I also like some of Kunal Shah's suggestions"
Soumya Jain replied to Soumya Jain's discussion Entrepreneur Cafe - Will work or not?
"Hi Kunal, I love your suggestions! Though this will mean enlarged investments from Franchise India. But if they do implement these suggestions, the cafe will be quite a super hit I should say! :)"
Soumya Jain replied to Soumya Jain's discussion Entrepreneur Cafe - Will work or not?
"Thanks Swapnil for the feedback. Yes, Franchise India has to ensure that the relevant people come in from time to time and make sure people know about it. It's more than just providing food items and furniture to sit on..."
Soumya Jain replied to Soumya Jain's discussion Entrepreneur Cafe - Will work or not?
"Hi Neerja, thanks for the feedback. Your suggestions are more or less on the same lines as what Anamika gave above. And I completely agree with your point of view. But yes, charging a percentage won't really click with most entrepreneurs.…"
Soumya Jain replied to Soumya Jain's discussion Entrepreneur Cafe - Will work or not?
"Hi Rahul, absolutely agree with your comments. They really have to make it a strong concept on paper and in reality too. What do they do apart from just providing food is the deal clincher I guess.
Thanks for the wishes for LuxuryFacts! :)"
Kunal Shah replied to Soumya Jain's discussion Entrepreneur Cafe - Will work or not?
