Case Study: Tailored Coffee achieves a faster, loan-ready business plan with LivePlan

Used LivePlan to write a business plan and price out purchasing and remodeling costs

Tailored Coffee, a coffee roasting business in Eugene, Oregon, needed a fast way to create a business plan while owner Brian Sung was still running another company. He also had to estimate the costs of buying roasting equipment, remodeling the storefront, and securing financing for the new venture, so he turned to LivePlan for help.

LivePlan helped Tailored Coffee build the business plan and price out startup expenses, making the planning process much quicker and easier. With the plan in place, Brian secured a bank loan, then used a Kickstarter campaign to cover remodel overruns—helping keep the business on solid financial footing and generating marketing buzz before launch.
