Day 364 – Ola!

If you are thinking of starting a BEVINCO franchise and you are wondering how you can take a vacation longer than Sunday, there is a way. In the beginning it is more challenging of course, but an employee or two will make life a lot easier. Recently I was able to sneak away for some winter sunshine in the Caribbean without missing a beat. How? It takes some planning and working with your clients to ensure you are meeting their needs. Currently all of my audits fall between Monday and Thursday. To make sure the audits were still completed you can shift the late week audits earlier and double up some of the days, this will likely make a few long days by starting a few hours earlier. On the following week, the early week audits can be shifted later in the week which may double up some days and make them longer but you are then able to take time off in between weeks without missing an audit. This will obviously be easier if you have an employee to help you with the doubled up workload or allow them to complete the audit on their own. If your employee completes the audit for you, you may need to have email access on vacation to review audit results if need be to ensure the reports are completed as required. If you have clients that are scheduled bi-weekly, selecting the off week to take time off will also reduce your workload and making planning a little easier.
