Business Services
-
Your concept is so good, it’s expanding. We’ll find your new space, redline your business docs, check out the CAD files, the works.
-
You already know from previous experience that behind every great project is an eye-catching, detailed plan of action. Let’s continue to wow the pants off of your investors.
-
Every house needs a solid foundation. The same goes for your business.; let’s maintain the solid core you’ve begun with and copy it for your next one.
-
With new openings, you’ll have to decide what you want copied from location to location and what can have a little wiggle room. What makes the brand recognizable to guests?
-
You know Monica Gellar from Friends? Yeah, she’s our spirit animal. Staying organized, especially with multiple locations, is key.
-
Your menu offering should be an accurate reflection of your brand. We’ll help you focus on what’s needed and what’s not, while identifying the heavy hitter items that should be magnified.
-
Every space you own should be set up in a way that flows and just generally makes sense.
-
Both physically and internally, having a stable infrastructure is the name of the game. We’ll make sure your next building is sound, while maintaining harmony and structure inside the walls as well.
OPERATIONS
-
Sometimes setting up POS systems is just one of those things you don’t have time to do when there’s a million other projects to do before opening your next location.
-
Let’s get some third-party integrations on the board and make your second, third, and fourth locations run smoother than you could have imagined.
-
Making sure your online and delivery ordering is seamless from store-to-store is the difference between repeat customers and one-hit wonders.
-
Keeping manager manuals updated and relevant to each location is necessary and just a part of the organization that keeps the wheels turning.
-
How does this location function in respect to the others? Maybe they run the same, maybe they don’t. We’ll help you figure it out.
-
While you may not always have control over the cost of your goods, you should be in control of how they are calculated.
-
Now that you’re multi-unit, it’s time to get inventory in check. If you don’t already have one, we can help find the best system suited to your brand- or tweak the one you already have.
-
We all know it’s constantly rising, but let’s come up with some inventive ways to keep both you and your staff happy schmappy.
-
We’ll help you understand all things sales-related and what can be tweaked in each location to increase your bottom line. How does each store perform annually? What’s your weekly revenue lookin’ like?
-
Scheduling and inventory can actually be quite fun when you’re doing it the right way. Sure, things happen, staff calls out last minute, but we’ll teach you how to not sweat it.
-
Colorado is constantly updating Labor & Employment Rules & Regulations. With new laws being introduced regularly we will make sure your business stays compliant with Tipping & Service Charges, Worker’s Compensations, FAMLI, Wages & Overtime, Uniforms, Emplyement & Tax Forms, COVID-19, and Employee Break Periods.
Marketing + Brand
-
Keeping your marketing emails and overall systems uniform from store-to-store may take a little more effort, and that’s okay. We’re here to help.
-
With each location comes the question, (among many others), who am I selling this to? We’ll assess the risks and trends while pinpointing your audience.
-
As your business evolves, its marketing strategy will too. What used to work may not be what the cool kids are responding to anymore, so it’s important to be moldable.
-
Your brand expression is your personality. We’ll want to make it consistent from store-to-store so there’s no question when guests walk in the door.
-
So you’ve got a website, but is it updated? In a world where people expect answers immediately (if not sooner), you can’t afford to have incorrect hours, dead links, or decrepit photos on your website.
-
Now that you’re expanding, let’s put some work into keeping those creative juices flowing. What can really propel your brand to the next level?
-
Let’s make sure when people Google you, it’s worth their while. We tailor what the public sees about you in a clear and precise way.
-
Does your beverage menu compliment your food offerings? We’ll help tweak it so your guests can be sippin’ pretty, no matter what location they’re at.
-
Your chefs deserve to have clean, legible recipe books to refer to. That gnocchi recipe from your great-grandfather kind of demands it.
Human Resources
-
Creating and maintaining the standard for your team is a very important part of the glue that holds your brand together. Don’t hire duds.
-
Constructing a group of individuals who you are paying to be there isn’t necessarily difficult. But making that group a TEAM- that’s a whole other matzo ball.
-
Every team should have a united bond. This is achieved by copying company culture from location-to-location to ensure that the dynamic remains consistent throughout.
-
Making sure your team has a clear and concise company handbook is basically their roadmap. Set them up for success, every hire, every store.
-
In remaining consistent from store-to-store, you’ll need everyone to be on the same page. Let’s help your team lift each other up and radiate the brand- and encourage others to do the same.
-
Your management and leadership teams are the shining beacons for each storefront. Let’s get them from good to great.
-
Each location will have its share of challenges with scheduling. Let’s take the guesswork out of most of it by implementing the right system for your brand and repeating it every time.
Compliance
-
You’ve gone through the licensing and permitting for your first storefront, but maybe the second one has different rules and regulations. Let us navigate those murky waters for you.
-
Ensure that your brand and every facet of it stays solely yours by trademarking logos, words, phrases, designs, or symbols.
-
Sometimes lease agreements can make about as much sense as a monsoon in Denver. Sit back and let us untangle the jargon for you and your expansion.
-
Before you sign that legally binding agreement, let’s make certain it’s got all the bells and whistles it needs for both parties.
-
We’ll examine and evaluate your financial statements for you for each location. Hey, someone’s gotta do it.
