<p>In this episode, we get a bit geeky about <strong>admin and prep</strong> — the work that keeps your business running, from opening the site and stock takes to food prep and line cleaning.</p><p>The key point? These tasks add up to <strong>a lot of hours</strong>, and the more efficient you can make them, the more your business performance will improve.</p><p>We break down the difference between <strong>service tasks vs admin/prep tasks</strong>, and explore how some tasks (like pot wash) can be either depending on the day and the volume of trade. We also dig into the idea of <strong>fixed tasks vs slack tasks</strong>, and the opportunity to shift work into quieter periods without compromising standards.</p><p>In tough trading conditions, this episode is all about finding ways to work smarter — because we can’t afford to waste time.</p>
