The holidays can be a fun and joyful time to be a bakery owner — as long as you keep your wits about yourself and do some planning in advance. We’ve had plenty of highs and lows over the years - so let’s talk about lessons learned!

In this episode, we’re sharing some of our biggest tips & tricks from running our bakery through the holiday season. We’re getting real about some of the challenges we’ve faced (and how we overcame them), as well as:

• Why holidays can be a great revenue booster (if you plan for them in advance!)
• Why having your team queued up in advance is critical
• Why trying to do ALL THE THINGS during the holiday season can be a recipe for disaster
• Why sitting down after your busy cycles and going over what went well and what could have gone better helps create a roadmap for future busy times in your bakery
• And so much more!
