How the holiday multiplier keeps you stocked on long weekends

Public holidays and long weekends are some of the busiest days on a cafe calendar, and also the easiest to get wrong. Your normal Saturday order will not be enough for Easter Saturday. Previo watches the Australian public holiday calendar for you and adjusts your suggested orders before the extra customers show up.

How it works

1

Previo checks the calendar automatically

No setup needed. Previo already knows the public holidays that apply to your area and watches for the ones coming up.

2

It applies a multiplier to your order

When a holiday or long weekend is close, Previo increases your suggested stock levels to match the extra foot traffic those days usually bring.

3

You see the adjusted number before you order

The suggestion on your dashboard already includes the bump. You do not need to remember which weekend is coming up or do the maths yourself.

A simple example

Easter Saturday might bring 30 percent more customers than a normal Saturday. Previo factors that in automatically, so your order for that day is already sized for the extra rush instead of your usual weekend number.

You still get the final say on every order, Previo just makes sure the starting number already accounts for the calendar, so you are not caught short on the busiest days of the year.
