Internet Cafe Business Opportunity

A Place To Hang-Up
Owning an Internet Cafe is like having a place to hang-up for your family and friends. People ideally good for this business are those retired/disabled &/or people who do not want to work for somebody. I will elaborate this statement later on this article.

Being retired you do not have to go somewhere to visit your family, instead they come and visit you right on your business domain. You can throw a party everytime they drop-by. With them coming over would be gratifying and joyous moment for you and your family. In our experience, family and friends that comes to our place of business - an Internet Cafe; most of the time they enjoy their stay while surfing the net and kids play games.

Because your are open almost everyday, they can come anyday of the week to visit you. And, because you are open almost the whole day, they do not have to call for appointment to see you.

Internet Cafe Profitability
Most of us have no exact idea on how profitable an Internet Cafe is. Profitability of Internet Cafe depend on how it has been set-up: A small business with 10-25 computers does not give a rewarding profit. A midium scale of 50 computers could give a decent profit for the owner.. Lastly, another scale of 100-300 computers is most profitable set-up. However, it is labor and capital intensive.

Meanwhile, we will concentrate on the middium scale of 50(+) computers. This scale is best run by a retired individual or a couple retiry or dis-able yet still able to manned and manage the business. Another set of people that are good to stay and manage this kind of business are those who would like to work for themselves and be the boss, as well as the owner.

It is good practice to manage and manned the business by your selves instead of paying 3 part timer employees. This money will be a good income for the owner rather than paying somebody else.

Who use or come to an Internet Cafe
In America, most people have their own computer. However, a lot of families do not have a set of computer at home. If a family do have computer, their kid love to play games with their friends. These kids play with friends together and only in an internet cafe where they enjoy it.

In our experience, a lot of people still come to Internet Cafe to surf; have theri report done; do print; send faxes; and most of all enjoy the good speed connection better than DSL could offer.

Branch Out
If you could establish one Internet Cafe, there is no reason why not set-up another one or two or three. Your horizon for this business is endless. As long as you can manage and get track of the whole business, we are not holding you - we will help in every step of the way.

Start and Sell the Business
Some businessmen do start an internet cafe and sell as soon as it start doing business or wait a while until it is really doing good business and then sell it. Buying the business that is running is better than setting it your selves. Since, buying an existing business is expensive while you pay this businessman for their expertise in setting up, you will also pay for some amount of money for the goodwill of the business. As you set-up your selves, you save this investment.

However, buying an existing business save you a lot of time and headache of starting a business. Imagine, when you start it by yourselves you have to look for space, set the place up, have the place approve for business license and permit. This alone will cost you alot of time and effort to make the place viable for the business.

Unfortunately, you will also buy the existing motif of the business; whatever furnitures and seating it has. While with us you will start your own design for your internet cafe, the color, the furnitures, the chairs, etc. All these will be in your control and liking. As for the location, space, business license, business permit and other related things to start we will be here to guide and help you made this happen. Forget buying one - you can do it with us.

Idea about the business (Internet Cafe)
Internet Cafe has been a good business and do provide a steady profitable income. But, it has to be on a scale of 50(+) computers, as we mentioned ealier on this article. In America, to operate less than 50 computers, the return is not that good.

Running the business (Internet Cafe)
This business is open normally from 10:00 AM to 11:00 PM or midnight, everyday with no holiday almost. Means, we are also open even holidays. We must be ready to open and stay on till closing. Although, in some other time that you have personal committment to attend, you can hire part timer to fill your slack time. Though it is a good practice to stay by yourselves to save money on salary.

The owner should learn to operate the computer at least. You should learn how the computer really work. Some clients may need help using the computer. If you are not computer savvy, we suggest you seek help from your grandson/daughter or next of kin to show how to use the computer. Most kids know how to use computer pretty well than we adult. Kids explore the computer and the internet without reservation, reason they learn more. We adult are intimadated to manipulate the computer because we might break it and on the internet, we are worried about viruses. For kids they do not worry anything at all. Anyway, if you are not really that good on the computer, we have the program to stay with you and show the in and out/ day-to-day running of the business. this will also help you understand how you will deal with the computers.

Likewise, should you have the time to attend an adult school - they have pretty much all courses or subjects about computer/internet/software instructions.

Upside and Downside of Internet Cafe
Most mistake for those business owner who start an Internet Cafe were to open one and another one in another locations or more. Most of them though that having one and more location opened at almost simultaneously was a good idea. They made a mistake because most of what they opened were at the scale of 50 computers in most locations.

These scale as we mentioned earlier are good for "mom & pop" operation. Setting-up on this scale will not be viable business operating with 3 employees.

Being a family oriented business is a downside for Internet Cafe. However, the upside for Internet Cafe business is good as family business; as a "mom & pop" business is a plus upside for group of people who want to own one - retired/disable and/or those do not to work for somebody.

Secret of the Business (Internet Cafe)
What will happen if the secret of this business be mention here; everyone of us will try and setup Internet Cafe in almost every corner, like what's happening in the Philippines, when almost everybody opened one.

As we mentioned, this business is good as "mom & pop" setting and should have at least 50(+) computers. Less than this number will not give an incouraging profit. The profit here is good enough for people who would manned and manage the business. Best practice in this business is run by the owner.

Statistic of Small Business in America
We got a latest statistic on who are establishing and running a small businesses in America. Most of them are those immigrants coming from other countries; as follows: Number one among the group are the Greeks, followed by Iranians, next are Italians, Polish, Mexican, Koreans, Indians (India), chinese, Vietnamese, Canadians and Cubans.

No other nationalities were mentioned except those named above. Filipinos were mostly doing business for filipinos also and not for general community. Like the following business: Restaurant, Bakeries, Pinoy stores with oriental items, Sea Food stores or supermarket, Video Stores, etc. Other nationalities do not really patronized our business.
