If you\u2019re a food franchise owner, you know that some of the biggest challenges your managers face on a daily basis are the ones that revolve around employees.<\/p>\n

Not only is it challenging to find reliable help, but once you\u2019ve hired and trained an employee for your franchise business you (or your manager<\/i>) has to set-up employee schedules. Talk about challenging\u2026<\/p>\n

Go ahead; ask your food-service manager-or any food-service manager their feelings about employee scheduling<\/b>. You\u2019re bound to get an earful. That\u2019s because employee scheduling is a huge source of stress for already stressed-out managers. Take it from one who knows; I was in food-service<\/a> for years. Nothing made my blood-pressure rise more than scheduling-related issues. Employees were constantly calling in sick. Some of them didn\u2019t even show up. Usually it was because they misread the posted schedule. But, there is a solution.<\/p>\n

Employee Scheduling Solution<\/h2>\n

What if your manager\u2026with only a click of the mouse, could create employee schedules<\/a> and immediately send them right to the employees? Via email?<\/p>\n

Wouldn’t it be great if employees could receive an email letting them know exactly when to work? Doing so would certainly go far in eliminating the \u201cI didn’t know I was supposed to work<\/i>\u201d errors that are so common in food service. (Your manager can still print schedules for members of your staff that are less technical<\/i>.)<\/p>\n

Well, the technology to do what I’ve just described exists.<\/p>\n
