Local family business, bakery.In this comeback to the business, the focus was to build simple procedures to keep employees motivated and advocating for the company. We restarted having weekly fast meetings in order to keep all informed about selling goals, customer feedback (service and goods) and discuss about group issues. Also we have started with a bonus/prize variable remuneration, considering team sells and individual behaviour performance.Both those actions have scaled gross revenue up to 15% above expected results considering seasonality in 2 months, providing enough income for the bakery to pay off its primary debts acquired during the COVID-19 pandemic and put it back on track of growth.Besides financial success, in P&C branch there was another major win: the turnover mark (usually significantly large as in whole service market in Brazil) has dropped significantly, down to approximately only 1 replacement per month.Although the results were very satisfying, the personal friction between me and my family began once again to affect the business performance, and that is why I have decided to quit permanently
