The trouble is most owners are isolated, stressed, and are in desperate need of a type of community that is not just generally related to business but is made up entirely of other coffee shop owners who know exactly where you are coming from. That is what Key Holder Coaching Groups are all about. A small group of invested coffee shop owners who are dedicated to encouragement, accountability, insights, and helping each other grow. Our groups are limited 6-7 experienced cafe owners and we meet 12 times over 6 months in our Zoom sessions where we focus on member led topics that are actually relevant to the real life of a cafe owner.
