"Internet
Cafe & Kiosk Manual"
 A
few years ago, true Internet junkies lugged their laptops around the world so
they could stay connected. Now they're leaving their laptops at home, and relying on Internet cafés
and kiosks for a fast, cheap and easy way to exchange email and surf the net
while they grab a bite or a cup of coffee. With Internet cafés, the idea is to let people browse the Internet (or
even do real work) while basking in the comfort of a familiar café. Internet
kiosks on the other hand, are supposed to be quick and easy-to-use stations for
checking e-mail or looking up a bit of information on the web.
Both Internet cafes and kiosks let customers use e-mail, play games and even update their own Web pages. Any PC can be hooked up to a dollar bill acceptor, and with the
right software, you can charge customers for time spent online. That means you can turn a PC into a real moneymaker with very little
effort.
Travelers say Internet cafes -- along with Internet kiosks in airports, shopping malls and
libraries -- offer a welcome respite from having to lug a laptop, fumble with
electrical and telephone adapters for different countries, and racking up huge
phone bills for connect time.
Even high-tech professionals find it daunting to set up an Internet connection while
overseas. Rather than searching for nonexistent 800 numbers that work overseas, or
tracking down a local Internet service provider, many travelers find that
they’re better off going to an Internet café, getting a drink and relaxing
while they get online. For these reasons, Internet cafes have become a fast-growing phenomenon
with a reported 3,700 open worldwide.
At a minimum, Internet cafes and kiosks let you easily get online without having to
figure out what number to dial; some even offer high-speed connections such as
DSL, ISDN or T1 lines. Many of them also offer games, color printers, cameras
for videoconferencing, scanners and other services.
The Internet is still in its beginning stage and will continue to develop at a
phenomenal rate. Interactivity will increase and the experience will continue to be
enriching for all age groups. As the Internet becomes more and more a part of the average
individual’s daily life, the need for cafes and kiosks will become even
greater.
Since the beginning, Internet cafés and kiosks have realized the same growth
potential as is found in the Internet industry as a whole and there is every
reason to believe that this trend will continue. When you consider the added benefits of the social atmosphere, good food
and good coffee found in a café, and the efficiency of using a kiosk, the
growth possibilities are unlimited.
Internet kiosks offer instant access to the web for those who don’t have their own
computers and those who are away from their home or office. Simply put money into the bill acceptor then surf the Internet, check or
send E-mail, chat with friends and family and even play computer games. Kiosks not only appeal to those who already use the Internet, but to
those who don’t have access at home as well. Demand for public Internet access is increasing every day.
A kiosk style Internet vending route has huge growth potential because the
demand
for public access is increasing at a rapid rate, and the revenue is generated
with no interaction. You can provide public Internet access by installing Internet vending
kiosks in locations near you that work while you play!
The machines are a self-generating revenue source, which require little maintenance. Very
little effort in time and labor produces a substantial amount of income.
This frees up your time so that income is produced around the clock while you do
other things, or go to your other job. Software updates can be
electronically uploaded from your home or office, and you can keep track of
daily statistics for each of your machines from there as well. Additional revenue is also available through interactive advertising.
For these reasons, kiosk style Internet vending is an exciting and growing
field!
Additionally, the overhead and infrastructure required to operate an Internet business is very
low when compared to other "brick & mortar" companies. This
means higher profit margins. These
are just some of the many reasons that Internet businesses are capable of
generating sales growth at a faster rate than any other industry. Now you
can put the Internet to work for you with your own Internet café or kiosk style
vending business.
This manual is a complete guide to setting up and maintaining your own profitable
Internet café or kiosk style Internet vending business. You’ll be able to determine which direction is best for you – meeting
new people on a daily basis and getting free coffee at the café, or running a
route business from your home or office on your own schedule. Both can be highly profitable and satisfying
businesses, and both can
actually be done together if desired. You’ll learn the pros and cons of each in this manual, find out what it
takes to get started, be able to develop a profitable business model, learn how
to price your services, design your own kiosks and gain
access to industry suppliers through this complete guidebook.
