David Pearce: 我对David Cogen这位YouTube科技博主转型开咖啡店的经历很感兴趣,这引发了我对如何平衡内容创作和小企业经营的思考。他的经历为我们提供了宝贵的经验和教训。 David Cogen: 我最初在YouTube视频中加入咖啡元素只是自然而然的事情,观众的积极反馈让我意识到咖啡已成为我品牌的一部分。我并没有刻意将其商业化,而是顺其自然地发展。开咖啡店的想法源于我寻找一个新的创作空间,而这个空间最终成为了我的咖啡店。我的目标并非建立咖啡帝国,而是做一件让我感到有意义的事情,并且与我的YouTube频道有一定的关联性,但我的目标并非建立咖啡帝国,而是做一件让我感到有意义的事情。在开店的过程中,我学习了大量的咖啡知识,并努力将咖啡店打造成一个独立运营的、成功的企业。 在经营咖啡店的过程中,我面临着平衡YouTube视频创作和咖啡店经营的挑战。我努力寻找一种方法来兼顾两者,并尝试优化流程,以减少工作时间。最终目标是健康地兼顾两者,并拥有自己的生活。我不想让咖啡店过度依赖于我的YouTube影响力,我希望它能独立成功。虽然我可能会在YouTube频道上分享一些咖啡店的内容,但我更希望它被视为一家独立的、优秀的咖啡店。 David Cogen: 我最初的设想是为创作者们建立一个共享空间,但经过计算后发现不可行。之后,我决定开一家咖啡店,这与我的兴趣爱好和现有资源相符。我并没有雄心壮志地想要建立一个咖啡帝国,而是希望做一件让我感到有意义的事情。在开店过程中,我投入了大量时间学习咖啡知识,参加了各种课程和活动,并努力将咖啡店打造成一个独立运营的、成功的企业。 在运营咖啡店的同时,我仍然在继续创作YouTube视频。我努力平衡两者之间的关系,并尝试优化工作流程,以提高效率。我的目标是健康地兼顾两者,并拥有自己的生活。我不想让咖啡店过度依赖于我的YouTube影响力,我希望它能独立成功。虽然我可能会在YouTube频道上分享一些咖啡店的内容,但我更希望它被视为一家独立的、优秀的咖啡店。我意识到,为了保持创作的热情和效率,需要对YouTube内容创作进行系统化和流程化管理,这与咖啡店的运营管理有所不同。咖啡店的运营更注重实际操作和人际互动,这让我感到更加充实和满足。

Shownotes Transcript

For the last eight months, David Cogen has been living a double life.
