Every accomplished baker knows that making the perfect creation, whether a cake, pastry, cookie, bread or deli concoction, requires accurate measurements of all the right ingredients. And perhaps a ‘secret’ ingredient makes the creation stand out among all others! Being a successful baker however, doesn’t guarantee a successful bakery. Just like the perfect mixture of baking ingredients for outstanding products, a bakery needs the right mix of many features to ensure its success. Location, atmosphere, trained staff, equipment and excellent product all factor into customer loyalty and success for a bakery. And what is the secret ingredient? A software and POS system designed to help manage your business, save you time, and increase your profits. With a phone connection, internet access and electrical outlets, you can have a software system installed in your bakery, whether you have one store or many.
BakeSmart has developed a software system specifically for bakeries. Rather than trying to make a generic POS program fit your bakery’s needs, BakeSmart is tailored to the special needs of bakery operations. With BakeSmart’s system you can:
- Create and edit orders, and accept payments directly in the POS.
- Easily locate orders in the POS at the time of pick up.
- Reduce transcription and calculation errors, saving valuable time.
- Set production requirements based on sales and order levels, ensuring that shelves are stocked with the right amount of products.
- Track production costs by formula including labor, materials, and equipment costs to determine cost per product and profit margins.
- Control production costs with waste and efficiency reports.
- Monitor employee productivity. BakeSmart’s reports show what each employee is producing in sales, orders and order fulfillment.
- Eliminate shrinkage with an accurate accounting of products sold.
- Simplify servicing and billing wholesale customers by having standing orders automatically placed and invoices generated.
- Eliminate spreadsheets, ledgers or the need to enter information into other programs. Information is automatically recorded and tracked when orders are placed and transactions occur.
- Analyze results by sorting and organizing data in multiple formats to efficiently and effectively manage your business.
Saving time, reducing errors, increasing profits – a perfect mix for a successful bakery – and all provided by the secret ingredient, a BakeSmart software POS system!
