  • Bake the right amount
  • Fewer leftovers
  • Special orders under control
  • Quick invoices

01What owners tell you

A bakery bakes once and sells quickly. Baking too much wastes money; baking too little loses sales. The till holds the answer.

  • Leftover bread and cakes at closing, but no idea why.
  • Prices for different items are remembered, not recorded.
  • Cash and orders for special cakes get mixed up.
  • Two shifts sell, and nobody knows who sold what.
  • Wholesale customers want invoices that take time to write.

02The words that sell

Owners do not buy equipment. They buy the day they want to have. These are the outcomes to talk about when you pitch a POS to bakery.

Bake the right amountKnow what sold each day and each hour.
Fewer leftoversPlan production from real sales.
Special orders under controlDeposits and pick-up dates are recorded.
Quick invoicesWholesale buyers get a printed invoice in seconds.

03Say it like this

Short, plain lines work best. Use them as they are or put them in your own words.

  • “You will know how many loaves to bake tomorrow because the till tells you.”
  • “Your leftovers will drop because you bake to the numbers.”
  • “Cake orders and deposits will be written once, not remembered.”
  • “Your wholesale buyers get an invoice before they leave.”

04Your 30-second pitch

Say this when you have the owner's attention at the counter. Stop after the question and let them answer.

Key takeaway“You will know how many loaves to bake tomorrow because the till tells you. Your leftovers will drop because you bake to the numbers. Cake orders and deposits will be written once, not remembered. Can I measure your counters this week and send you a written quote?”
