With all the regulations surrounding the cannabis industry, training, tracking, and monitoring staff can be difficult. A messy onboarding and management system can result in reduced employee morale due to confusion and uncertainty, along with a greater difficulty in tracking employee progress.
Ensuring that staff are well taken care of, know their responsibilities, and have the tools needed to thrive is critical to any dispensary’s operation.
That said, staff management software—that is specifically built for cannabis dispensaries—can be a great help to owners and increase the overall well-being and efficiency of an operation.
There are many benefits to using automated staff management software. Here are the top five to consider:
If you have ever started a job with an okayish manager, you may remember having felt at least some stress due to not fully understanding your role and the expectations your manager and fellow co-workers had for you.
When it comes to the cannabis industry, those pressures can increase due to all the regulatory compliance issues that could arise if the job is not performed correctly. Staff management software can help ease that pressure by providing employees with the tools needed to process and track purchases while remaining compliant with local laws.
Staff management software like Toke’s, offers a way to motivate staff with a budtender leaderboard. Employees are encouraged to increase average sales orders through upselling and join a friendly competition between budtenders.
Owners can offer bonuses, gifts, and other incentives based on certain metrics attained by their staff. This helps increase the overall health of the business while also rewarding employees for their work.
Just like every business, sensitive data like revenue, customers’ contact details, and the dispensary’s financial information is best kept safe and is not meant for everyone’s eyes. With that said, staff management software offers owners a way to customize their employees’ access to sensitive data.
In other words, an owner can give, for example, new staff limited access to certain information, and at the same time give veteran staff more access through the management software.
Additionally, staff management software can include customized PINs, which are often the standard in the retail industry. Employees can each have their own PIN with different levels of access/clearance to sensitive data.
This will help with overall data security and also protect employees from accidentally accessing information that they weren’t supposed to have access to.
Lastly, training employees can become simpler with staff management software for cannabis dispensaries. From the start, owners or managers can quickly assign the newcomer their own PIN and clearance level and onboard them onto the budtender leaderboard.
Owners can set tailored goals for the employee to track their progress, making the training process easier on the trainer and setting clear expectations for the trainee.
Staff management software can significantly enhance a dispensary's operations from training to managing data access. Plus, with automated tracking and incentives, dispensaries can benefit from greater staff engagement and performance.
