Antonio was a 20 year old young man, who unlike his other friends at the university, he was very passionate about coffee, so much so that in his free time he worked as a barista in a coffee shop that was very close to where he studied. Antonio always counted on the support of his parents for whatever he wanted and that is why he told them that in the next few months he was going to have his own coffee shop, in his own style, in his own way, with the best personnel and the best prices so that it would always be full of customers.

Antonio during all that time was dedicated to work very hard, without rest, he worked more than 8 hours a day, everything to get the money needed to open his coffee shop, he wanted to do it by himself without asking for financial help from his parents or bothering any of his uncles to ask for a loan of money. He wanted to do everything on his own and not let money stop him at any time to achieve what he wanted. Antonio always kept his money in a small piggy bank that he had since he was a child, he kept everything he made daily and even sold some extra coffees to get other income.
It took several months before Antonio finally managed to raise enough money to start with the dream of his new coffee shop. The first thing he did was to visit several shopping malls in search of that perfect place, a place that was comfortable, pleasant and where many people could easily get there. He spent a week looking for that place, until he finally found it. It was a place that was not in good condition to start his coffee shop, the place was destroyed, the walls were stained, however, gave him a beautiful view, where he could see people walking and the best thing is that it was in the center of the city.

Antonio had already overcome the first step of his dream, but now came the investment in the purchase of the necessary equipment, he wanted the best and most modern, so he went to an appliance store that had been recommended to him, when he arrived he immediately chose a couple of coffee makers, thermoses, specialized machines for making coffee and many other necessary equipment.
In addition, he needed to finish remodeling the place as soon as possible in order to start his new business, but Antonio had to choose a very modern and comfortable design, so he decided to divide his store into three parts. At the end of the store would be a bar where all the coffee machines, products, cups and many other utensils would be located. To the right side he decided to place a series of tables where families and friends could come and enjoy a cup of coffee. To the left side he designed a room where there would be many computers, where people could go to work on their blogs, surf the internet while enjoying a delicious coffee from the cafeteria. This would be the first coffee shop to have this design, so luxurious, modern and spectacular for all tastes.

Antonio was increasingly happy and satisfied with his coffee shop, it was only a few days before its grand opening, however, he felt that something was missing to make himself known, so he decided to make a series of ads, advertising to distribute them throughout the city, he created a social network to manage his coffee shop and thus have more reach. With the help of his mother they finished with the decoration with very luxurious and modern decorations, glass objects, lots of lights, to recreate an environment that was very pleasant for all customers. Antonio had put together a list of all the coffees that he was going to serve and sell, he would also offer coffees with different combinations, something unique, but most importantly he needed to form a work team with the best baristas in the city to offer a better service.

The most awaited moment for him and his family arrived, the opening. That day there were many people waiting to enter and sit down to enjoy a good coffee. The most impressive thing for the customers was to see that they had a space with several computers, it was something different and innovative that the other coffee shops did not have, also managed to capture the attention of many young people despite the fact that his coffee shop was a space for people of all ages. In a matter of seconds all the tables and spaces in the cafeteria were filled, the bar was full of orders. Antonio had achieved his dream, it was the best thing that had ever happened to him.
Antonio, for that day, had for all the customers who attended a great surprise that would please everyone, which was that with the purchase of a latte or a black coffee you would get a donut as a gift from the house. In addition, all the products offered were $1.00, the best part was that you could spend as many hours as you wanted inside, enjoying the free Internet and live music.
