I’ve learned a hell of a lot about my nursery this last two weeks. One, I have amazing employees. They’ve done an amazing job of working hard while trying to keep safe. I’ve learned we can do a shit ton of online business. We went from having a few orders a day for pickup, to hundreds. I realize that we’re all quarantined so its how they have to order but they are actually ordering more than we would have sold to people coming in under regular circumstances. Except I have a problem
My staff is not set up to handle the phone and online volume we’re getting. I literally don’t have enough safe space to put people answering phones. So we made it by building little rooms outside that are essentially outside offices. We hired a few extra people and it helped and they are separated. But then we weren’t set up to keep 5 people organized on who answered what email and what stage of the ordering process they were in. Even then the pull and delivery management is rough. We are used to taking delivery orders but not at 100X level and coming in from every form of social media and online.
The gardening questions are a whole other level. There literally is nowhere to get personal questions answered so they call us. All day, every day. We have 3 phone lines and they have been busy for 2 weeks. As soon as one opens there is another one to fill it. Its not as easy as hiring someone to do the job because answering questions takes years of experience and I literally have nowhere else to put them and can’t really transfer a line to them at home. I’m sure there is a way but I haven’t set it up.
Each and every day I have a list of things I need to conquer. Things that will make my business safer for staff and customers, efficient in the process, and changes that are long term, not band aids. It’s all I do. So far it’s been great. Each day we solve a few. Yesterday we had a dozen people work 12 hour days to get caught up and group think some issues. It’s not your quarantine at home doing tik tok videos. Its 12 people spread over 25 acres wearing masks and a mask sun tan which is a new thing, covered in dirt, thinking and solving. We can’t see the smiles other than in the eyes. The same place you can see the tired. But even in the exhaustion you can see the excitement of success because they want to stay late to make things good. They are asking if they can come in at 6 am and prep for the day. I realize this is what a startup looks like. Except our startup is 155 years old. Its just a new start and things are looking up despite the worlds circumstances.
And a quick note. Our advertisers and commissions pay for this list. If you find a name and buy it through the link it supports us. It costs you nothing but makes the world of difference to us. Thank you
