If you want to open a cake shop, the profit of cake is much higher than that of bread. Many people may have heard that baking shops have high profits. According to the basic market, the profit of bread series is about 30%, and the profit of cakes and coffee drinks is about 50%, which is already very high compared with other industries.
Nowadays, bread has long been the first choice for breakfast, afternoon tea or meal replacement snacks, while cake is a must for weddings, birthdays, opening ceremonies and wedding celebrations. It can be said that there is a great market demand, among which birthday cake has the highest profit, and birthday cake is the profit point of cake shop. Among all cake products, birthday cake has a high profit, 20% for 6 inches, 25% for 8 inches, and 10 inch. 12 inch profit 35%, 14 inch profit 40%, 16 inch profit 45%, 18 inch profit 50%. If you use some birthday cake marketing programs to increase the daily birthday cake volume, it will naturally be higher.
The profit calculation of the cake shop depends on the specific situation, because besides the scale, there are also factors such as brand and store address that affect its profit. However, it is certain that the cake shop has a large profit margin, but there are also many risks, such as poor location, few buyers, poor products, few people who like to eat, poor marketing, unable to increase turnover, and high rental cost, equipment cost, production cost, material cost and personnel cost in consumption cost.
Therefore, it is easy to open a shop, but to do it well, many factors need to be considered. The risk is low, the success rate is naturally high, and there are long-term plans, not temporary passion, so it is easy to open a shop, but it is not so simple to do it well.
Operating a cake shop requires investors to make a good budget before opening the store, which can ensure the smooth operation of the store and avoid losses. The budget input of a cake shop includes utilities, personnel management fees, costs, tables, chairs and tableware. For these expenses, the operator should make a list and estimate the approximate expenses, which is very helpful for the operation of the store.
So, how much does it cost to open a cake shop? What are the precautions? Next, talk to you.
One,
How much does it cost to open a cake shop?
1、
Total monthly expenses = monthly rent+total monthly salary+monthly industrial and commercial taxes+monthly utilities+monthly miscellaneous fees, etc. This can't be considered as the investment when opening a store, because it will be transferred when closing the store, and some will turn losses into profits, which is an indefinite number. Miscellaneous expenses include accommodation and sanitation, and the general entry cost of oil.
2、
Total daily cost = total monthly cost /30 days.
3、
Gross profit margin = [selling price-cost]/selling price * 100%. The costs here include spices, raw material prices and fuel. Through this formula, we can also calculate the cost and selling price of the product.
4、
Breakeven point monthly sales = total monthly expenses/gross profit margin or breakeven point daily sales = daily expenses/gross profit margin.
5、
Monthly gross profit = monthly total sales-monthly total cost, in which the total cost is monthly purchase quantity minus inventory.
6、
Monthly profit = gross profit-total monthly expenses.
Second,
Matters needing attention in opening a cake shop
1、
Honesty.
When opening a cake shop, we must pay attention to honesty. The so-called honesty means not deceiving consumers or making false propaganda.
2、
Sanitary facilities.
In order to seek profits, many black-hearted businesses in China often appear unclean and unhygienic in the catering industry. However, if you want to have more repeat customers and a longer-term development, I advise you to make clean and hygienic baked goods!
3、
Service.
Cake shop is a service industry. If you want better business, you must have thoughtful service.
4. See yourself clearly.
If you can't see yourself clearly, you can't find customers. Good location, suitable positioning, half the battle. The so-called good location does not mean how expensive the location is, but the location combined. To be precise, what business is done in what position? Management refers to the continuous improvement of the suitability between dishes and customer needs. If this suitability is improved, the success rate of enterprise management will be greatly improved, otherwise it will lead to a higher failure rate.
Generally speaking, the cost of opening a cake shop depends on the local rent, as well as the size and decoration level of the store. According to the actual situation, the precautions for opening a cake shop are also different. But I have to say, this is an industry where pay is directly proportional to return!
I run a cake shop now. The gross profit of cake shops is really high, but the cost of renting people is also high. If you can't sell it, it's expensive to throw it away every day. The competition in physical stores is fierce. I need to have a strong heart to resist the pressure and be prepared not to make money for a year. I can still do it as long as I insist.
You must have your own plan. You can't just ask online. Also be sure to ask experienced acquaintances in life and visit Anhui New Oriental. It's not too late to learn the technology of West Point before starting a business. I've been in this business for 10 years, and I think the basic process is like this, just for browsing. 1
Please ask a master, it is hard to find a pastry chef now, and it is even harder to find a responsible master. Please find a good master first.
It is estimated that your shop has been found, so it is decorated. Now there are professionals who specialize in decorating cake shops. The price of one square meter won't be expensive, but they are good at designing and doing better.
Publicity can start now, without decoration, and then buy equipment. Recruiting people, whether apprentices or waiters, should start preparing early, which can also play a role in publicity. Well, I have prepared the store regulations, which can be announced a few days before the opening; Hehe, that's all for the time being. If you have any questions, you can visit Jinan Delicious College. It's not too late to start a business after learning the technology of West Point. At present, the specific process of opening a west point store is as follows: step 1: prepare funds and determine the scale, integrate production and sales or separate them; Step 2: prepare technical sources, hire employees, or do a job by yourself; Step 3: Site selection. Determine whether to open in the business district, downtown area or residential area; Step 4: Market research. Make a detailed investigation on regional food market demand, consumption status, consumption capacity, citizens' eating habits and competition in the same industry; Step 5: Feasibility analysis. Are products and services acceptable to everyone? Is it better than peers? Where are the opportunities? Step 6: Evaluate the turnover and market share. Determine the investment scale and then estimate the size of the target market. Calculate the number and turnover of competitors, compare yourself with competitors and estimate your turnover and market share; Please enter a picture to describe the seventh step: decoration and permit application. The decoration conforms to the national regulations, and the facade is best decorated in warm colors, with its own characteristics but not too fancy. Step 8: Buy equipment. There are more and more manufacturers operating equipment in baking industry, please consult the headquarters. Step 9: design a special, interesting, clear, memorable and meaningful trademark, and it is best to register it to pave the way for launching a brand and building a brand-name product in the future; Step 10: design product packaging, which should be practical and economical; Step 1 1: Buy raw materials, which is a key link. Look at the product grade and contact the raw material dealer. In fact, the dealer knows that you want to start a business, and he came to you very early. The choice of raw materials is very important, which directly affects the quality of products. We might as well choose some products from manufacturers with stable product quality and good after-sales service.
Cake shop to make money, ask yourself first:
1.
Have you ever suffered? Get up at five or six every day and go to bed at ten. Eating irregularly. Especially for baking bread in summer, if the storefront is small, the whole storefront is a steamer. I saw with my own eyes that someone in the menstruation family ordered 200 small boxes of cakes until two o'clock in the morning and got up at five o'clock to open a shop. My aunt is in her fifties this year. She has problems with her waist, shoulders and stomach, plus high blood pressure.
2.
Can you stand anger? The audience of cakes is sinking more and more, and the next day they will encounter low quality and deliberately make things difficult. Don't fight back. You have to stop for a day or two before you can call back to the police station. Don't scold back, but say hello with a smile. So shopkeepers who are not allowed to have high blood pressure are not good shopkeepers.
3.
Can you stand loneliness? 365 days a year, except going out to buy food, they are all in the store. The social circle in Fiona Fang is about ten meters, which is limited to the supermarkets and clothing stores nearby. Business is good during the Spring Festival, so it's normal not to go back to your hometown. Most relatives and friends refuse their wedding birthdays. Fortunately, now you can video chat and solve it in a little bit.
4.
Are you married? A successful shop must be a couple's shop, because it can support each other. If the wife doesn't want to be together, don't drive, the risk is greater than long-distance love, and the relationship between husband and wife is very unstable. If you are not married, come back when you are married, otherwise there will be no time for blind date in the future.
If all the above questions can be answered, it is not a problem. Then opening a cake shop will be profitable, ranging from hundreds of thousands to more than 200 thousand to millions a year.
