El secreto detrás del éxito de Starbucks


How did Starbucks Start & Get to Be So Large and Profitable?


The Starbucks brand started as a small coffee roaster and retailer in Seattle's Pike Place Market in 1971.

 Howard Schultz joined Starbucks in 1982 as Director of Marketing, and he saw the potential in the company.

 He bought Starbucks for $3.8 million, but it was a gamble that paid off.

 Howard Schultz had an idea to make Starbucks a third place for customers to go outside of home and work to connect with people, whether they are friends, family or coworkers. 

Ultimately, the secret behind Starbucks success and what made it so profitable is the customers experience regarding the connection with other people, not just their cup of coffee.

  

This international company sees massive growth each year both in their physical locations and digital locations. As you may be aware, the coffee industry is very competitive.

 Starbucks is now the biggest, if not, one of the biggest franchises in the world by having multiple store locations whilst also building a culture around the Starbucks employees and customer experience.

 This article will tell you 5 major areas of strategic approach Starbucks have made in order to be successful.




Although Starbucks may be considered expensive
, the price of their food and beverages doesn't effect their customer experience as the culture of community and relationship overrides it.


  1. Starbucks' concept and strategy CEO of Starbucks, Howard Schultz didn't want the company to be only known for the beverages and qaulity coffee, he wanted to create a community where people can interact within a business perspective. The innovation of business has evolved and so has the amount of coffees purchased daily. Schultz say a gap in the market so he built a strategy containing key advantages.

  2. Real Estate/Location A part of Starbucks success are the locations. This gives the company an advantage over its competitors by quality placements and expansion by ultimately giving someone a 'local Starbucks'. When the first Starbucks opened, no one would have thought that an ordinary coffee shop would be so successful through beverage growth. And in that case, they were  wrong, because its not about the actual product or service Starbucks provide, its the location of their coffee shops. Starbucks is now considered worldwide by having a number of cafes around the world and in many countries which have past many brands in all aspects of business.

  3. Cafe Design Not only has Starbucks exceeded in the real estate business, they have also built the business and brand an excellent reputation through the design of their coffee shops. Starbucks implements a comfortable feeling in their shops friendly designs. Most people believe the brand shares comfortableness by being 'chaos' as a sense of calmness for the customer.

  4. Service/Customer Experience The culture build around the Starbucks employees is excellent. Very rarely you stumble across a rude employee and the management is faultless. Starbucks implement a good employee management system where each worker is dedicated to one specific job (now happens in every large coffee shop) All the employees offer great services and only focus on quality service towards their customers, delivering the best Starbucks experience.

  5. Price Price somewhat links in to the real estate aspect. Although Starbucks is considered expensive, it gives a customer a sense and feeling of good quality coffee. The reason why it is relevant to real estate, is that most people 'cant function without a coffee' and so customers are willing to ignore the price of a cup of coffee and go to the nearest cafe and drink coffee, which in most cases, is Starbucks. Not only do Starbucks offer beverages, they also offer food which can lengthen a customers retention and stay in a store.
