Brewing Success: How MoonGoat Coffee Crafted a Business Prospectus

A business prospectus that presents your brand with a blend of professional and personal is crucial for investors to stay, well, invested. For David Yardley, MoonGoat Coffee’s president of operations, that meant “communicating our vision, growth and strategic direction [with] sophistication and approachability.” See how perfect bound booklets ensured the brand’s message went down smooth.

From Grounds to Growth


On a mission to simplify and innovate the coffee experience, MoonGoat Coffee Roasters is committed to making an impression that goes far beyond the bean. With not only a roastery in Santa Ana, CA, but also four other California-based retail spots, MoonGoat is producing more than the fuel for your daily grind.

 

“We prioritize sustainability, quality and community in everything we do, from sourcing our coffee to engaging with our customers,” said Yardley. “What we love most is creating a meaningful impact on both a local and global scale, enhancing every aspect of the coffee supply network.”

One way to convey that commitment and showcase their strategy? A prospectus booklet designed thoughtfully and created with Smartpress’ perfect bound booklets.

The Business (Prospectus) of Beans


A prospectus in business has a big job to do. Attracting potential investors and partners is no easy task, after all. Each page has to compel them to back you with in-depth documentation on all parts of your company’s operations. MoonGoat Coffee’s business prospectus fit the brief to a tea (yep, they brew those loose leaves, too).

 

Customizing our perfect bound booklets with a coated cover stock, protective UV coating and full-color imagery, MoonGoat Coffee’s brand and business plan take the spotlight, balancing the flavor with the facts

“The matte coating on the cover provides a tactile quality that conveys luxury, while the uncoated interior enhances readability and the natural feel of the paper,” said Yardley.

 

Plus, with the hallmark of a perfect binding – the seamless square spine – their custom booklets look as specialty as their coffee tastes. “[We chose it] for its professional appearance and durability,” said Yardley. “It’s ideal for a detailed and visually-appealing presentation of our annual achievements and future goals.”
