위험 요인

Wide loss/profit range (-$1394 to $1396) suggests unstable demand or pricing power
Extremely uncertain break-even (26 to 999 months) increases financing and cash-flow risk
Revenue volatility ($6300 to $10800) makes fixed costs hard to manage in a physical store
High local competitive pressure (26 nearby competitors) can compress margins and slow customer acquisition
Break-even uncertainty plus negative-profit possibility can lead to frequent underutilization of shop capacity

실행 계획

Validate foot traffic and customer buying patterns in Pohang by running a 2-4 week soft launch with limited SKUs
Redesign the menu for higher gross margin: focus on best-sellers, upsells (toppings, cones/cups), and limited-time seasonal flavors
Optimize pricing and bundles using daily sell-through targets to protect margin even when revenue falls toward $6300/month
Differentiate with local partnerships (cafes, events, school/community) and a clear brand hook (e.g., signature texture/flavor) to stand out among 26 competitors
Control fixed costs tightly (short lease options, streamlined staffing, energy-efficient equipment) to reduce the worst-case path to negative profit
Track weekly KPIs (transactions/day, average ticket, gross margin, waste rate) and adjust within 2 weeks if break-even trajectory worsens
