Let's get to work
Whether it’s a restaurant manager, a shift supervisor, or an employee who volunteered to “fill in the gaps” with suppliers — everyone can agree on one thing: no one enjoys manually typing data into a system.
That’s exactly why we developed our new feature, Zestt’s smart scanning tool. It’s a solution that turns one of the most tedious processes — goods receiving — into one of the simplest and most efficient.
So how does it actually work, and why can it change the way you manage your restaurant?
Let’s Get Organized
Scheduling employees is like assembling a dish: only the right combination of ingredients works. You know the old saying, "the whole is greater than the sum of its parts"? That's exactly what we're talking about. How do you do it?
Be aware of your employees: know who is available and when, maintain flexibility, take requests into consideration.
Do the Fusion: Have a new employee who hasn’t mastered the material yet? Let them work with the cook who handles the line perfectly. Have waiters who get along great? Schedule them together; the customers will benefit too.
Plan Ahead: Just as you order supplies as far in advance as possible to avoid shortages, it’s worth checking employee availability early. A week in advance is good; a month in advance? Fantastic!
Systemize It: A scheduling system will make everything we discussed more efficient and save you time managing shifts and staff.
A good work schedule can improve restaurant efficiency, raise employee satisfaction, and provide better service to customers.
Good to go?
