Hi Jeff,

Just use Coffee news for basic ideas...

Research... Study but Never copy...

The Key is coming up with Smart “twists” on Great ideas... You can always run it by your Lawyer...

Having an expert Accountant and a Lawyer as part of your business plan & business network is a very Good idea...

A few hours of their Knowledge annually is more than Worth the investment if you're serious about the business long term...

I see Coffee news has changed the links I posted awhile back...
