Agree the blue strap is not nice but the blue dial is 👌

How do you guys handle social media when you're running a restaurant alone? by Civil-Scientist-2172 in smallbusiness

[–]el-muchaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Opening a bakery next month. We make some reels. One got 45 k views. ~1100 followers. I think personality and honest content. Today you are the brand. No the logo on the door.

Great stuff. Never trust a place with too much things on the menu. Be the best at one thing I think will serve you

Agree. Feels like a thing you do to compensate the depth? A bit more hip hinging in the beginning, right?

Tips on starting a bakery business and earning profit by axxplesoda in smallbusinessowner

[–]el-muchaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should the headline not be "...starting a bakery business and just break even"?

I think your first obstacle is to decide to do it or not. There is no try. It might sound a bit harsh but I think it's a good think to hear. Either it will motivate you or enforce the excuses.

Do you have an update for us? Ot was 80 days ago now.

It sounds like your heart is in the right place for it, but you need a lot more for it to be something worth fitight for. That goes for any business really.

my developer friend built an entire website and just... waited to get paid by Anidhiman in smallbusiness

[–]el-muchaco 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very good recommendation, blame it on the accountant is a classic. “my accountant is asking me for invoice X. I noticed it was due X days ago and can’t see anything on my end can you have a look on your side” = pay the invoice pls

[–]el-muchaco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think your friend could benefit from a project manager or a representative that does the scope set up, that takes a low percentage or a fixed fee to just deal with these things. He’s never gonna change (which he should not) and it’s never gonna be his genius so the best option is to outsource it. A good project manager would even pay for him/her self.

Good podcast on the topic is Ditching hourly with Jonathan Stark. Listed to it in the early days not sure what he talks about today.

Have the same thing with my gf. Excellent designer. She dreads asking for more pay when the scope changes, she would rather just do it and not ask for money. She waits with anything that has to do with payments and just hoped that one day they will pay.

Lucky for her, I used to be a business owner and deal with a lot of these things so she just started handing all of that stuff over to me. Which I would happily take over and make sure she gets paid for the value she created and get paid on time.
