582: Maximizing Existing Opportunities in Your Cafe

Making your cafe run better, improving service, increasing profitability, and leveling up quality and value for your guests naturally brings to mind a host of new and different services, products, and strategies that we believe we need to employ. But the truth is that we often only need to look deeper into the existing opportunities we have to find the solutions we seek.

Today on the show we will be discussing a few areas of your shop that deserve a deeper look and more focus. Before you assume you have done all you can with what you currently have, listen to this episode and let it inspire you to maximize your existing opportunities!

We will discuss:

• Your Community
• Your Current Menu
• Your Drink Quality
• Service + Hospitality
• Local Business Networks
