Stop Wasting 10 Hours a Week on Tasks QR Codes Can Solve
Last Tuesday, I watched Sarah's restaurant staff manually type WiFi passwords 47 times during lunch rush. By Friday, three servers quit – citing "endless customer questions" as the final straw. Total cost: $2,400 in hiring and training, plus countless frustrated customers.
Here's the thing: I've helped 8 businesses this month eliminate these exact time-wasters. Their common thread? They thought QR codes were "just for menus" during COVID.
The Hidden Costs You're Paying
Let's get specific about where your time's going:
- 2.5 hours/week: Staff explaining WiFi access
- 3 hours/week: Manually entering business card info after networking
- 4.5 hours/week: Taking phone orders and repeating menu items
That's 10 hours weekly at $20/hour = $200/week or $10,400 annually in preventable labor costs.
