Abstract

Many young people want to work in coffee shops or even open coffee shops, so they set off a wave of entrepreneurship, but according to a survey by the world magazine, Entrepreneurial momentum is strong in Taiwan, and the proportion of entrepreneurship is higher than that of the United Kingdom, Singapore, South Korea, and Japan, second only to the United States, but Taiwan’s entrepreneurial “death rate” is also significantly higher than these countries. According to the information of the chief accounting office, Taiwan’s entrepreneurship rate was far greater than the rate of business closure before 2000, but after 2000, the chances of successful entrepreneurship fell sharply. Also, many people are used to sipping a cup of coffee in the morning to start a good day. In recent years, the coffee market has developed rapidly in Taiwan, and convenience stores have launched promotional advertisements for cheap coffee. However, we have found that Starbucks, a high-priced coffee brand, has not joined the ranks of cheap coffee. They still maintain their high price and high quality. The most important thing is that we did not see Starbucks ads on any TV commercials or print media. Why did Starbucks not use advertising, but still stand in front of the coffee market?
