Some of the highlights from this podcast will include: People are the biggest thing in your business, the right people bring in all the best opportunities. Levi talks a little about oatmeal coffee? Yum or no? How do you convince people to work in one area over another, such as the register over the espresso machine? Conflicts disguised as opportunity, a conflict brings up a topic that clearly needs to be addressed. What its like to start a cafe, get married, and go back to school all at the same time. It's very hard but it can be done if you focus and have support. On the flip side having a cafe during a divorce, how do you turn this around. What its like to work from 4:30A to 6:30P to get your cafe up and running on its feet? Its better to have a more time to work ON your business rather than always be working IN your business. What its like to attend and speak at a CoffeeFest.com event 6 times per year. |

Summer, 2015, Levi and Corey sit down to talk about how coffee shops should use Yelp to get new customers. Levi uses the app several times per week and used to have an account for his own coffee stand. This episode you will learn about the overall strategy you should use when starting a Yelp page, how to reward fans, dealing with negative reviews, and rewarding your staff for a job well done. BIO: Corey Dane hails from Chicago and worked as a voice over artist, TV host and arts administrator before joining Yelp in 2010. Since then he's created and cultivated two robust communities of consumers looking to connect with great local businesses, first in Tucson, AZ and most recently in Madison, WI. In his current role as Manager of Local Business Outreach, Corey travels North America, speaking with business owners about leveraging the power of Yelp to help grow their business. |
