Welcome to the channel of entrepreneurs and brand stories who can forge their own path, break free from their comfort zones, and step outside the box – courageous and proactive.
Many people dream of one day graduating from school, quitting their jobs, leaving corporate life behind, and opening a small, charming cafe or breakfast spot. But what happens on the other side of the coin?
In this episode, we met with Burak Köse, one of the oldest business owners on Beşiktaş Breakfast Street. With nearly 14 years of experience since 2013, we openly discussed everything from the minimum 10 million TL cost of opening a business from scratch today, to amortization periods, the difficulties of finding the right staff, and his biggest mistake: the experience of making the wrong partnership. He sincerely explained why it's impossible to succeed in this sector without being directly involved from the beginning, and the behind-the-scenes aspects of direct customer communication.
This was a golden conversation for anyone who wants to start their own business and step into the gastronomy and service sector. Enjoy watching!
