Digital Logs: The Hype Behind Them

Written by Wendy Davis | Nov 24, 2020 4:14:12 PM

You switch on the light in your office, revealing a desk overflowing with unorganized stacks of papers. Some are grease-stained from the previous work day. You slump into your seat, wishing you could do something about this mess that looms in front of you. 

Then an idea pops into your head. 

Why continue working with paper when you can take your business digital? Not only will it help clear away some of the clutter on your desk, but it will save you time and money in the long run. 

We are finding that many restaurant owners and managers across the country are discovering that the practice of using pen and paper just isn’t working out for them anymore. It causes too much of a mess and takes up too much time and space. Time that can be focused elsewhere, like on growing your business. Not only that, but it gives you peace of mind. Gone are the days where you have to worry about whether your store processes are getting done to your expectations. 

Go digital and eliminate all of the additional stress that comes with running a business. Not only will you gain much needed visibility into your business, but you will make your employees’ lives easier. Working in your business will be easier because your employees won’t have to go searching through that dirty binder for food logs and daily checklists. It’ll be available at the touch of a button. 

Feeling generous? Add incentives to log and checklist completion. Gamification encourages employees, by giving them the confidence to get the job done the way you want them to. With gamification employees are able to compete with each other for the longest log or checklist streak. Not only that, but by using gamification, you are instituting clear policies and procedures in a fun and more responsive way. So, your employees will know exactly what’s expected of them and have the confidence to execute it.

This allows you to relax, not spending another second worrying about whether or not your daily processes are being completed the way you want them to be.
