What are the foundations of your café’s smooth operation and success?
Two key factors: excellent coffee and keeping your expenses under control.
Today, we have a mission: to uncover what’s happening behind the scenes in your café that’s probably increasing your operating costs without your knowledge.
Warning: What you’re about to read may be eye-opening. But don’t worry, because as always, we’ll provide the solutions you need to overcome every challenge and obstacle on your path to success.
So, what are the factors responsible for significant, unnecessary expenses in your business?
Supply Management
We can’t start without addressing the cost of supplies you pay for every month in your café.
Did you know you could probably reduce this expense?
And by that, we don’t mean investing in lower-quality coffee or buying less than what you need.
We mean ensuring your staff manages supplies correctly. In short, your barista might be a coffee artisan, but are they also skilled in the art of… saving?
This doesn’t mean asking them to use less than required for each recipe; quite the opposite.
Make sure they adhere to the exact proportions and don’t waste or misuse supplies.
As a business owner, it’s tough to monitor every cup of coffee made. But excess use of supplies means extra costs.
Inaccurate Ordering
We’re confident that as a café owner, you plan your supply orders as best as possible to stay well-stocked.
Let’s be realistic though; it’s challenging for one person to accurately predict the exact amount of coffee needed for the next month without specific data and numbers at hand.
And you might think that ordering extra is better than running out of coffee. But it’s time to consider that this approach costs you in the long run.
Neglected Equipment
Imagine arriving at your café one morning to find that the coffee machine isn’t working.
It’s not just the hassle of getting it repaired or, even worse, replaced, but also the unexpected expense.
One of the most common causes of equipment breakdown is infrequent and inadequate cleaning and maintenance.
These issues aren’t visible to the naked eye, making it easy for them to slip under your radar, leading to costly repairs or replacements.
