Basically im an A/S Student atm and have been assigned a busniess project, need to produce a busniness plan and research what im doing, i beleive that usually the simple ideas generate the most success, my idea was a very modernised Sandwich bar// cafe that has wireless internet acess. Alot of you are my target audience and i just thought that if i could generate some feed back from alot of different sources my idea and business would become greater and more successful.
Would it appeal to you if you were a student and Uni or college to go to at lunch or in a free? (Most students take laptops, would the internet entice you to go)
Yes i am aware that there would be alot of competition. What would you see as a Unique point of interest in such a business?


Thanks in advance.

Got to offer something more than WiFi, since everywhere has free WiFi these days. Every Cafe, Coffee Bean, Starbucks, general hang out place, and even State ran hospitals have free WiFi.

£30 !! rip off lol

Like others said it needs to be appealing and bit fun of a hang out etc. But cheap deals etc will attract alot of custom in these credit crunch times ^^

£30 for an 8th, **** me they saw you comming. Cheap thats never been cheap, as a student I remember paying £15 an 8th or like now I get it for my brother at £20 an 8th.......

If £30 is cheap where your from, then I'm moving down there and going to make a killing.

Guitar hero would win in a sandwich bar, everyone at uni seems to love it, even those that don't like games/geeking. Theres a couple of xbox's on a campus bar at my uni, which is always popular.
Also i'd totally use a wifi s'wich place. Starbucks is often very expensive for some students, many prefer a local spoons etc. But if you can match the Starbucks feel with spoons prices you'd do alright.

Local bands/comedians also win as they bring customers that follow that specific band, and therefore buy drinks/food - that's a regular in most uni towns.
