Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to help you decide if consulting is right for your café.

The audit is the fastest way to identify what to fix first so improvements are targeted and measurable. It saves you from guessing and ensures you invest time and money in the right areas.

Yes—planning support helps avoid costly mistakes in equipment, menu, and workflow decisions before opening. This is often the best time to get it right from the start.

Primary focus is Mindanao for on-site work, but remote strategy, audits, and planning can be discussed depending on the project scope and needs.

A surface audit typically takes 1–2 days on-site, followed by a written report within 5–7 business days. A comprehensive audit takes longer and includes deeper analysis of financials, systems, and team performance.

The full program includes audit, personalized action plan, workflow optimization, menu and costing review, staff training support, and implementation guidance. It's a complete system overhaul tailored to your café.

Many quick wins can be implemented immediately after the audit—like workflow adjustments, menu tweaks, and simple cost controls. Bigger improvements (staff habits, systems) take consistent implementation over weeks.

Yes—equipment guidance is part of the planning and consulting services. I help you choose machines and tools that match your volume, budget, and concept, avoiding overspending or undersizing.

Training is hands-on and practical—focused on speed, consistency, customer interaction, and your specific menu. Sessions can be customized for new hires or skill upgrades for existing staff.
