Selling milk tea for Bitcoin

[Warkop]

If you believe this way it doesn't hurt you to try this good thing, but in my opinion don't just sell it at the mall, you should sell it open also near campus and offer it to all students, and you also have to explain the payment problem. can use Bitcoin, I think this will be better in the future and make a good idea for your business using Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency. Good luck for your business.

Actually what is he trying to point here is it okay if he will invest for business just to buy bitcoins. Well for me thats okay most especially because he can gain profits for two, one for trading and also kne for his business. What a bright idea its just like hitting two birds woth one stone. If I will be given a chance I will do the same thing just like him because if you are just gonna trade here you cant earn enough money if you have a family to support.

I think this is not to invest in Bitcoin but he only wants to sell milk and tea by way of payment using Bitcoin. maybe anyone can use this method, including you, but only the way and promotion is the difference because everyone to do the promotion will definitely never be the same and there will be different ways to do it.

I'm not sure the OP's idea is effective, especially since BTC hasn't been adopted well in the city, but it doesn't hurt to try.  who knows with that, many people in your city are getting to know cryptocurrency and want to learn and use it.  the important thing to do it slowly as an alternative to fiat payments.  if possible then accept online and delivery orders, it's also effective if you want to use payments in cryptocurrency.

This is a very challenging idea for a business. If you are prepared to face the risk of accepting Bitcoin especially the rates where sales will be definitely affected then there is no wrong in trying.
If I understand correctly, this will be a family business so it'll be best to think it over plenty of times and learning the market. Problems will definitely arise when you start accepting it but I guess you will learn by facing the consequences along the way as it is not every day you'll be accepting Bitcoin as payment anyway.

I am very happy to hear that there are people who think like you, indeed we should do things like that to accelerate growth bitcoin.
Because there are still many people who don't know bitcoin yet, there are even some people who have never heard of bitcoin. This is
our job as a cryptocurrency community, have to be able to spread bitcoin around the world. But unfortunately for me I can't sell products
in the real world by accepting payments with bitcoin, because my country does not allow using bitcoin as payment.

With the enormous option of possible things we could do to attract market adoption, I like the way how you made it, but would it seem to be hard? Because if you are going to accept bitcoin in payment for small amount of a milk tea, more transaction fee is needed, plus, with the volatility of the market, do you ensure profits and returns in your business? Though, that isn't what is necessary, what is important that I like about what you did is the initiative to make these things possible.

Where country are you from?  Im from Philippines and mostly the Filipinos love milk tea and most of the student even me when we are hangout after the class we are buying milk tea. It's good to hear that you want to accept bitcoin goodluck to your busines hoping to have many customer will going to pay using bitcoin.

Just sell milktea to mall and and near school because that area have a lot of people so the bitcoin will be expose there.

[TitanGEL]

That is a good way to promote Bitcoin. You can earn bitcoins there as long as there is a people who are willing to buy your product with the use of that kind of payment system. It can boost the awareness in your community because you are the first business who is willing to accept bitcoin as payment. I'am sure that there will be a curious about the bitcoin because of the method that you use.

I had a discussion with my parents earlier, saying that they want to start operating our milk tea food cart. We had the cart ready, materials for making the milk tea and so on. Instead of waiting for June or July until the new school building opens, we decided to put our business in a mall rather than the school sooner than later.

My dad was a traditional business style guy. He kept failing because of not being creative and innovative, and sometimes ignoring my suggestions and advice. However, this time, since I am into crypto and blockchain industry, he was thinking about displaying a Bitcoin QR code.

In the city that I lived, there were no businesses yet who accept Bitcoin payments. They do have QR codes, but mostly from a centralized provider and not crypto-related.

It would be a good payment option, but I wouldn't be optimistic if it would help in the success of your business. We need more HODLERS to have spenders.

I already have my mom's Bitcoin wallet verified, and may need to upgrade it to a Business account as it needs business permit and other requirements necessary. It'll be used for the business anyways.

I think this is going to be a worthwhile experiment, and a great way to start letting people aware about Bitcoin. Maybe I should put some creative promos for those who will buy milk tea using Bitcoin. What do you guys think?

I believe the current HODLERS will continue save their valuable Bitcoins, and use cash. Which is the right thing to do in my opinion.

[Rodeo02]

maybe you will get some problems including those related to the prevailing currency in your country sooner or later unless you use one of the postal equipment provided by one of the ICO projects that uses a local currency base that is PundiX if I'm not mistaken

i dont think there will be a problem its only depend on the country where they plan to open it.

There are already country that accepted crypto currency and bitcoin as payment .

 Be partner of local exchange if you dont want to have a problem with price volatility, but if you really want to adopt it to use in your personal store accept bitcoin as payment and forget about the price volatility.

[kotajikikox]

you should start onlien advertising as well mate,asking all your friends in social media to help you promote the Business that accepts Bitcoin.
so you can make it Both promoting your business to others people and promoting Bitcoin as well for them to have ideas.
this may help you and the market as well.
anyway Congrats to your business and hope it will grow more and will branch out as soon as possible.

What are you using to accept it?

That will be a great idea for promoting Bitcoin usage on your place because with that idea of yours fusing Bitcoin usage on the business you have on your mind. That will be successful if and only if people on your place do already know about Bitcoin together with its essence and importance as well as how it will be use. Adaptation on using cryptocurrency is also in need so that people can be able to use and know about Bitcoin. But that will be a great start on promoting Bitcoin in your place so that people who still doesn't know about it will be aware that such cryptocurrency do exist and it can be used as well for payment options. Putting promotion on using Bitcoin will surely hit the interest and attention of the crowd and they will become curious on knowing Bitcoin so that they will start engaging into it that will be good to rise up the demand of using Bitcoin.

[MWesterweele]

I really appreciate your hard efforts on this buddy also you are advertising Bitcoin as well, this will give a serious thought to the people like what Bitcoin is and they will surely get use to it. Successful people always think different just go for it.

Also I suggest you to make a what's app group too by saying that we do accept Bitcoin payment and make more popular, this is what creativity mate.

It will make bitcoin more famous in your area, it will also make people curious about what is bitcoin and how does it will works, curiosity will be the key for us to advertise it and make it widely known. Many people will adopt it, and will buy little by little until it will becomes their investment. I would love to franchise it soon if ever.

Good job that you choose an innovative idea to attract more people to your shop, but I am a little bit confused! Because as you said there are not many people aware of Bitcoin payment, so they may not interest to pay through Bitcoin for milk tea. You need to spread it widely so that more shop owners get interested to apply for Bitcoin payment in their shop! Later then everyone will kudos to you to bring a revolution in that area, but that will not be an easy job at all! Good Luck.

[princesspoppy]

Using promos will also promote bitcoin or even stir curiousity to those who do not know bitcoin. People who knows bitcoin will probable love the idea and will definitely buy your milktea because of the promo as well as because they also knew someone who knows bitcoin and is willing to accept bitcoin as a payment on a product. Good job! Hope your business will be successful someday.

About the media site, of course as what I have analyzed recently, any activity related to Bitcoin will be published by small, medium or big media sites.

For example, Crypto Crunch App. I have seen them posting pictures of kids selling some items with the Bitcoin logo. A beggar in China is roaming around asking alms from people, but using Bitcoin QR code and it’s going viral. Even a tiny activity would lead to bigger exposure, and I honestly believe in that.

When our milk tea business opens soon, my small crypto community would not hesitate taking selfies with the QR code of ours, and spread the word on social media, until it can be reached to medium and bigger popular media sites. I can see the bigger picture here in the long run.

Not sure yet about lightning though, because the official crypto wallet being used in the Philippines is Coins.PH.

All the same, PM me if you really do it. Like you said, some things go viral on their own, but it's not often you actually get the guy behind the meme to say something properly. Just an offer, you can take it as you wish!

Oh and yeah I knew coins.ph is popular in PH but I didn't know it was THAT popular till everyone uses it. I know you just want ease of business but I'm almost 100% sure once people get used to the idea of better wallets they're in complete control of, they might consider switching to a wallet that doesn't have your private keys! I know it doesn't make much of a difference to the consumer, but a little bit of Bitcoin knowledge goes a long way. Cheers!

but at least if a store provides many payment methods people will be more interested and make it easier.
maybe by making a poster that the store accepts bitcoin, then bitcoin users who stop in can use it and if new people might grow their curiosity.

[rodskee]

wow nice venture mate,hows the operation now?does the sales is increasing?are you having also other means of advertising ?
since you are accepting bitcoin better to broadcast this online in social media platforms.

Using promos will also promote bitcoin or even stir curiousity to those who do not know bitcoin. People who knows bitcoin will probable love the idea and will definitely buy your milktea because of the promo as well as because they also knew someone who knows bitcoin and is willing to accept bitcoin as a payment on a product. Good job! Hope your business will be successful someday.

yeah that is added advertising for crypto also may to His business,but the question is from what country OP lives?does Crypto is supported by their government?

It can create awareness if someone posted a poster about  accepting bitcoin as mode of payment. Most of people have characteristics of being curious where they want to know what it is, I also have a business proposal where I will create a retail store where customers can use bitcoin in terms of mode of payment. The awareness will not start easily if we are just sitting and not doing anything. We can create and spread awareness by promoting especially by word of mouth.
