Getting a bakery business started can be a real hassle, especially when you don’t know what to do to make it all work!
Save yourself a TON of time and energy as your business grows, by making sure the first few steps you take while building your bakery business, are wise and knowledgeable.
Clear your mind, find your true goals and vibe, learn how to network efficiently and plan ahead for the future of your successful bakery business.
This course is for :

current bakery owners searching for clarity and less stress in their existing business
Within the course, you will:

discover how you can create routines to keep you on track, making you more income over time
It is very common for bakers to undersell themselves, either out of uncertainty or fear. We have a low pricing epidemic on our hands!
Although it may seem easier, bakers should NOT base their pricing on other bakers, or from the internet, or from their family members. Those numbers just aren’t realistic and will not work for your specific business.
Every bakery business, aiming for success, needs a specialized pricing chart made with personal data in mind. This data will give you room to grow, cover all your bills AND pay you an income!
If you are a person who would like to sell their baked goods and actually generate real profit from your sales, you MUST learn about how bakery pricing works and how to apply it to your business.
This course will help you determine the perfect price point to:
Cover all past, present and future costs AND pay yourself
Stay competitive in your industry, while making a profit
Allow your business to have growth built right into the pricing
This course is made for:
hobby bakers just starting to sell their products and needing a clear idea of how pricing works and how to pay themselves
current bakery owners needing to redefine and pinpoint their pricing strategy, for clarity and increased profit
Within the course, we will go through the individual steps of collecting your business data, (with provided charts and formulas), to build an average pricing chart for your business. This chart will make quoting custom orders simple and fast. We will also spend time discussing other bakery business pricing issues, such as tastings, delivery, refunds, promotions and so much more!
