From a shop that runs on it.
Burning Bush is a cannabis delivery business in Brooklyn and the first shop on Cultivar. This is what they ran on before, and what changed.
Five places a number could live.
Burning BushCannabis delivery · Brooklyn
Supplier orders went in a notebook. Customer orders came in by text and went out by text, to whichever driver was on. Stock was a spreadsheet that was right on Monday.
Nobody was doing anything wrong. There were five places the same number could live, and one person carrying it between them at the end of the day.
Four jobs they used to do by hand.
Each is shown on the Cultivar screen that does it now. The screens show sample data, not Burning Bush’s own orders.
Ordering from a supplier
- Before
- A list in a notebook, and a text to the supplier.
- Now
- The supplier’s list is pasted in and becomes the order, with a running total. Until the boxes are counted in, none of it can be sold.
Knowing what is on the shelf
- Before
- A spreadsheet, updated when someone remembered.
- Now
- Every product has one count, and every change to it is written down with a name and a time. What is promised to an open order cannot be sold twice.
Getting an order to the door
- Before
- A text to the driver, and a text back when it was done.
- Now
- The driver takes the order on their phone, drives it over and confirms it at the door. That one tap marks it delivered and takes the stock off the count.
Telling customers what is in this week
- Before
- The menu typed out again and sent as a text.
- Now
- The week’s menu is built once. The shop shows it, and the email is made from it, so what customers are offered is what is on the shelf.
In their words.
We ran the shop on paper, texts and a spreadsheet. Now the order, the stock and the driver are on one screen, and nobody counts anything twice.
I take the order on my phone, drive it over and tap delivered at the door. It closes itself. I don’t text the shop to say it’s done any more.
I build the week’s menu once and the email writes itself from it. What the shop shows is what is actually on the shelf.
One customer, and no logo wall.
Cultivar is new and in private beta. Burning Bush runs on it today, and it was built alongside the people doing the work: supplier orders, weighing out, counts at close. There is no row of logos on this page and no figure for hours saved, because there is nothing honest to put there yet. When there is, it will be here.
If you want to be the second story, the first shops in the beta work directly with the people building it.
