Sharing more excert from Ethan Butler, a humble cafe owner I look up to. He is Seattlr-based but makes a lot of sense to fellow owners like us in the Philippines--

🔥 CAFE OWNER TO CAFE OWNER | THIS IS WHERE PROFIT HIDES 🔥

Most café owners don’t need more hours.

They need less waste, tighter systems, and ruthless clarity.

Here’s what I wish someone hit me with years ago:

📦 1. Your Supplier Account is Not Your Business Partner

If you’re ordering the same way you did 6 months ago, you’re bleeding.

Review every invoice.
• Are you over-ordering to hit discounts?
• Are there ingredients that don’t serve multiple dishes?
• Are you accepting shrinkage as “normal”?

Small shifts like consolidating suppliers, switching brands, or aligning orders to prep cycles = thousands saved over 12 months.

☕ 2. Coffee Might Be Your Brand, But It’s Not Always Your Margin

You might love your coffee. So do your customers.

But unless your pricing, portioning, and waste is dialed in—it’s a profit killer.

Run this check:

• Are your staff double-dosing?
• Are you tracking milk wastage?
• Do you know your margin per cup?

One café I worked with fixed this and gained $1.20 per cup back. That’s $1,200/month on 1,000 cups.

🧠 3. If You’re Still Running the Business in Your Head, You’re in Trouble

Verbal instructions. No documented systems. “Just wing it” rostering.

That’s not leadership... that’s survival.

System = freedom.

Start simple:

• Write down your open/close routine
• Lock in checklists for daily prep
• Delegate with accountability

It’s not about being corporate. It’s about protecting your brain for the high-level decisions that actually move the needle.

📉 4. Loyalty Cards Aren’t Loyalty Programs

Punch cards don’t build relationships.

Smart loyalty is data-driven:
• Capture names and birthdays
• Reward spend tiers, not just visits
• Offer high-margin bonuses (free coffee = loss, free cookie = 20c cost, $4 value)

Retention is easier than acquisition. And far more profitable.

📈 5. Every Café Has a Hidden Bottleneck – Find Yours and Profit Explodes

It’s usually one of these:
• One staff member holding everything up
• A menu item wrecking flow
• A layout issue slowing service
• A pricing structure that’s too safe

Fix one bottleneck and suddenly 12pm–2pm goes from chaos to cashflow.

I’ll leave you with this:

Cafés don’t fail from a lack of effort.

They fail when the owner stays buried in the grind and never steps back to see the bigger picture.

If you’re tired but not done… overwhelmed but still in the game…

Zoom out.

Because you’re not just serving eggs and coffee.

You’re running a business, building a brand, and shaping your future.

Margins matter. Energy matters. You matter.

I lifted this from the post of Butler, one of the friendly cafe owners I met during an inspirational talk in Seattle—

🔥 CAFE OWNER TO CAFE OWNER – NO FLUFF, JUST REALITY 🔥
If you feel like you’re bleeding money, losing energy, or constantly on edge…
Let me hit you with some truths that turned my café around without spending a cent:

☕ 1. Your POS Data is Your Hidden Profit Map
Stop ignoring it.
You’re sitting on patterns that tell you exactly what’s working and what’s draining.
Top 5 selling items = your leverage. Bottom 5 = probably time to cut or rework.
Every week, review:
• Sales by item
• Time of day volume
• Staff average sale value
It’s not just “numbers.”
It’s the truth behind your profit.

🍽️ 2. You Don’t Need More Customers. You Need to Maximise Each One.
If your average transaction is under $12, you’re in survival mode.
Teach your staff to upsell without being pushy.
Small changes:
• “Would you like a hash brown with that?”
• “Any coffee with your meal?”
• “We’ve got fresh muffins today—keen?”
$2–$5 extra per ticket x 100 transactions = your rent.

📋 3. Cut the Emotional Dead Weight from Your Menu
That dish you love but barely sells? It’s costing you.
Sentiment doesn’t pay bills.
Data does.
Refine your menu every 60–90 days. Highlight your workhorses. Simplify the rest.

⏱️ 4. You’re Probably Wasting 30–60 Minutes a Day Without Realising
Kitchen prep? Too much.
Order systems? Manual.
Staff changeovers? Unclear.
Audit your daily flow like a stranger.
Ask: “Would I pay for this process if it was outsourced?”
If not—it’s costing you real money.

💡 5. Stop Thinking It Has to Be Big to Be Worthwhile
The next move isn’t always a full fit-out, a viral post, or new equipment.
Sometimes it's:
• Tightening your open-close procedures
• Restructuring your roster
• Charging properly for add-ons
• Saying no to low-margin catering jobs that burn your team

I’ve been in this game long enough to know:
Most cafés don’t go under from lack of passion.
They go under because the owner never stepped back to think like a strategist.
You're not “just a café owner.”
You're a leader, marketer, ops manager, and brand architect.
The second you step into that mindset—everything changes.

If this gave you something to think about, I’m glad.
I’m not selling anything—just want more of us to win this game and stay in love with the thing we built.
Keep pushing. Keep adjusting. Keep your margin sacred.
Your future self (and your team) will thank you.
