You’re a coffee lover who spent years behind the counter, brightening people’s days with the perfect cup of coffee. Eventually, you took the big leap: you hung up your apron, opened your own business, and set out to show the world what great coffee truly means.
With years of experience as an employee, you probably thought, “I can do this better. I won’t make the mistakes others did because I know better.”
So, you embarked on this journey, dreaming of serving the best coffee to your customers while having the freedom to pursue other interests, free from the 9-to-5 grind.
But then reality hits. You’re no longer just a staff member; you’re responsible for the entire operation. You soon realize it’s easier to be part of the team than to manage the whole team.
Why? Because now you’re overseeing 3, 5, or even 10 people, and it’s nearly impossible to know what’s happening when you’re not there.
Can you really be sure that your barista always remembers to clean the coffee machine properly?
These problems are common, and many café owners have tried various solutions—perhaps you have too. But do they really work?
The Camera Fiasco
Is installing cameras in a café necessary? Yes. Do they help in managing staff? Not really.
It’s impractical to watch hours of security footage, trying to figure out if someone is wasting supplies or neglecting to change the water filter.
And if you’re doing that, it’s no different from being on-site 24/7. In other words, you neither save time nor get a complete picture at the end of the day.
Family Help
Often, what’s missing in our business is a trusted person who cares about it as much as we do. A family member might seem like the perfect choice. But is this really effective for running a professional and responsible business?
Firstly, they’re human too and can miss things. Secondly, how familiar are they with the business? Do they understand the needs, operations, and challenges of a café? If not, how valuable is their help after all?
Taking On Every Role in Your Café
Many café owners eventually conclude that the only way to have peace of mind is to take on all the responsibilities and practically spend all day in the café.
15 hours a day, 7 days a week, always present. Behind the counter, at the register, everywhere.
But is this what you envisioned when you started your business? Working double or triple hours and being a jack-of-all-trades?
As a business owner, you know you have more important responsibilities. You’re there to make major decisions and set the strategy.
Is there a Solution?
Now that you’re living it, you probably understand why many café owners you worked for were always present, overseeing everything, and constantly checking in when they weren’t there.
They thought this was the only way to maintain control over their business.
But why go through all that exhaustion and wasted time when it’s 2024, and technology can solve these problems for you?
