In today’s hospitality industry, efficiency is no longer just a bonus; it’s essential. With rising operating costs, staff turnover, and increasing expectations from customers, hospitality businesses continue juggling multiple priorities to remain successful. Many have already invested in smart POS technology like SENPOS to streamline operations and increase member engagement, which is one key element of a fully efficient operation. To build on this, venues can integrate their POS with financial tools like Wirely, that turns raw data into actionable insights, providing oversight of costs, staff, and performance in real time.
Even with the right systems in place, many venues still face challenges in managing labour and operational efficiency. According to Wirely, labour alone can consume 28–35% of revenue, and staff turnover can cost venues up to 19.5% of total payroll annually. On top of this, routine administrative tasks such as cash ups, journal reconciliation, and end-of-week reporting can take up hours each week, limiting the time available for staff development, service improvements, and strategic planning.
On top of that, routine administrative tasks quietly consume a significant portion of time that could otherwise be invested in staff development, improving service or planning. At a glance, this can look like:
- Around 2 hours daily on cash ups
- About 1 hour daily reconciling financial journals
- Over 10 hours per week on end-of-week reconciliation
This is where intuitive platforms like Wirely make a real difference. By integrating directly with SENPOS, Wirely pulls all key information including daily takings, staff costs, voids, discounts and cost of goods sold into one live, real-time dashboard.
Through this, operators gain over 12 hours each week. The key efficiencies include:
- Average 30 minute daily on cash ups
- Automatic financial journal updates
- Manul end-of-week reconciliations are no longer needed
The result is more than just saved time, it’s clarity, efficiency and peace of mind. Managers can focus on higher-value decisions instead of repetitive tasks, while real-time insights into costs, sales, and staff enable smarter planning, shift management, and informed business decisions. In a market with tight margins, this level of oversight is invaluable.
