5 Real Breakthrough Benefits of an Employee Handbook in your Bakery

Benefit 1: Your team will instantly know all of your expectations

The first important benefit is that your team will instantly know what is expected of them. You might not have had the chance to communicate every single thing to your team. An employee manual or handbook is the place to include all the detail.

Whenever someone new starts in your team, they will have a relevant tool to guide them. Many bakeries do not operate efficiently because their team have not been told the specifics, including the rules and expected level of service delivery.

They may have been provided general guidelines, however you must be specific.

Benefit 2: It will set the benchmark for customer service

As you already know, quality of product, taste and customer service is the key to making your bakery perform. Your business revolves around the taste of your products and your customer service, including online reviews.

Achieving 5 star reviews for every single customer should be your goal. If it isn’t, your business will struggle to compete and in the end struggle to survive. Set the expected minimum standards for your team with an employee handbook.

Benefit 3: Your team will be building authentic trust with your customers

Being authentic and building trust is the key to ensuring repeat customers, which in turn, builds your business in all areas.

Repeat customers are crucial for staying profitable in any small business. You cannot survive without them. Build trust, deliver quality products and great customer service, and get those customers returning for more.

Benefit 4: It stops you repeating yourself

A good friend of mine once told me if you don’t want to repeat yourself, don’t have kids or operate a business. How true this is. Implementing an employee handbook means you will not have to repeat yourself over and over again. Your team will have a document they can refer to first.

Make sure you always refer to the employee handbook when your team ask you questions. It must be continually reviewed and updated, and you must also use your team to contribute to this task.

You can’t do it all by yourself. But you can set the wheels in motion and provide the direction. Take it seriously and then your team will also take it seriously.

This is the key to success to a much better performing bakery in all areas.

Benefit 5: It will determine quality above all else

You cannot run a successful bakery if you are creating and providing a sub-standard product. It is just too competitive and the majority of customers have high expectations.

You must focus on quality, and aim to deliver it in everything you do on a daily basis. Ensure your team focus on quality through your employee manual.
