It was a dream that come true for the Seattle-based entrepreneur. Though the U.S. economy was reeling under recession and many retail majors were reporting losses and applying for bankruptcy, Starbucks announced a 31% increase in its net earnings and a 23% increase in sales for the first quarter of 2003. Analyst felt that the success of Starbucks showed that a quality product speaks for itself and the fact that Starbucks spent less than 1% of its sales on advertising and marketing strengthened this view. In addition to be a popular brand among customers, Starbucks was also considered the best place to work due to its employee friendly policies (Starbucks was the first organization in the U.S. to offer stock options and health coverage to part-time employees also).
