Como's Rubén Recio Nogales on loyalty that actually works, frictionless data and why WhatsApp is coming for UK hospitality

Loyalty used to mean a stamp card and a prayer. Not anymore. This week Chris sits down with Rubén Recio Nogales, VP of Business Development at Como (now Como Sense), to unpack what modern customer engagement really looks like, and why most operators are sitting on a goldmine of data they're not using.Como describes itself as a data company that specialises in customer engagement. It sits between your operational side and your CRM, pulls in every transaction (identified or not) and surfaces the insights that actually move the needle. Think 3,000 lapsed members targeted in two clicks, or spotting the customers one stamp away from a reward who'll react to almost anything you send them.Rubén and Chris get into penetration rates (why 15 to 30 percent is normal and how one client hit 80), why loyalty members consistently outspend everyone else, and the frontline staff who quietly make or break the whole thing. They also look ahead at WhatsApp marketing, automated segmentation, AI driven reporting, and the holy grail Live Nation are chasing: card tokenisation that identifies the guest with zero friction at the till.Honest, practical and refreshingly free of hype. If you're an operator with data you don't know what to do with, this one's for you.Key talking points:Why "loyalty" got a bad name, and what's changedPenetration rate explained, and why 80 percent is wildThe two click campaign and reading customer behaviourWhatsApp marketing: massive in the Middle East, heading to the UKCard tokenisation and frictionless loyalty (the Live Nation play)Where AI fits: segmentation, reporting and machine learningWhy your GM matters more than your softwareWhen to change systems, and when to leave a good thing aloneGuest: Rubén Recio Nogales, VP of Business Development, ComoFind Rubén: LinkedIn (Rubén Recio Nogales).

Authentic Marketing in a World of AI Noise, with Visha Kudhail

Visha Kudhail has spent nearly two decades in marketing across Channel 4, Thinkbox, Google, Pinterest and Square, where she and Chris first crossed paths on the hospitality side of the business. Now she has written a book on authentic marketing, and this episode digs into what authenticity actually means once you strip away the buzzword.We get into the difference between being truthful and being authentic, why trust is the connecting thread through everything, and how operators can stand out in a climate of rising misinformation, AI fatigue and a cost of living squeeze. Visha makes the case that brand is not just the marketing team's job, that you have to earn the right to be in the room with a customer, and that AI should be your sparring partner, not your content machine. Plenty here for marketers, founders and tech vendors alike.What we cover02:01 Visha's career path from TV and Thinkbox to Google, Pinterest and Square06:20 The book reveal and why she wrote it08:11 Why authenticity matters now: misinformation, political noise, cost of living and only 38% of people eating out10:17 What authentic really means: your words matching your beliefs as an operating principle11:38 Truthful vs authentic, and why even honest brands can feel fake13:32 Keeping authenticity intact as you scale a business14:03 The rise of content creators like Topjaw and why operators lean on them16:37 AI as a sparring partner, and why critical thinking cannot be outsourced18:47 The three tests of a great insight: brand truth, relatability, actionability19:50 Why none of it works if your data is not clean20:51 Building trust, with real examples from Google and Pinterest23:48 Why brand belongs to the whole business, not just the marketing room27:58 Earning the right to be in the room with the customer29:34 The Bread Ahead story and the power of one great piece of customer-led content31:26 Will AI make fake authenticity easier? The Coca-Cola Christmas ad cautionary tale32:47 AI rejection, dumb phones and the cultural shift back to analog and craft34:29 What Visha would build first if starting a brand from zero35:16 Profitable authenticity, with Patagonia, Nike, e.l.f. and Pieminister37:30 Book launch plans and what she hopes it changes40:30 Where to find VishaA few takeawaysTruth is being factually accurate. Authenticity is the feeling you create. Brands can be honest and still come across as fake.A strong insight passes three tests: is it baked into your brand truth, does it relate to your product, and can it actually shift behaviour.Use AI for productivity and efficiency, not as a cost cutting exercise that strips out the people doing great work.You always have to earn the right to be in the room with a customer, no matter how big you are.Authentic brands that stay true to their values can still drive profit. Patagonia, Nike and e.l.f. are the proof.About the bookVisha's book on authentic marketing is out 3 June in the UK and the US. It is built as a reusable, practical guide drawn from real strategies and frameworks she has applied day to day, with several chapters on data and a deep dive on how to think about AI.LinksPre-order and find the book via Visha's websiteConnect with Visha on LinkedIn

From AI implementation to impact with John Raguin from CrunchTime, Tim Cross from Caffè Nero UK, and Andrew Winter from SSP Group plc

In this episode, we're joined by Tim from Caffè Nero, Andy from SSP, and John from CrunchTime for a no-nonsense conversation about AI in hospitality. What's actually delivering ROI, what's failed, and what the future looks like for operators on the ground. Less LinkedIn hype, more real talk.What's Actually WorkingAI forecasting is the clearest ROI win — CrunchTime saw adoption jump from ~1% to 50% of locations in 12 monthsCaffè Nero is piloting AI-driven stock availability and assisted orderingSSP is using AI for labor forecasting, trading hour optimization, and upsell recommendationsThe Data ProblemBad data kills AI results — CrunchTime's own support AI was 3% accurate until they cleaned up their data sourcesThe sweet spot for forecasting data: 400 days (more doesn't meaningfully improve accuracy)82% of UK operators use tech forecasting, but average accuracy is only 62%Change Management is the Hard PartJohn: The #1 reason implementations fail isn't the tech — it's change management in operationsAndy: SSP is shifting from technology-led to business transformation-led changeKeep humans in the loop — let GMs enrich AI forecasts, not just override themWhat's ComingVoice-based AI for managers: ask your phone for stats or tomorrow's forecast, no back-office report neededManagers move from the back office to the floor — John's timeline: 5–7 years for widespread adoptionOne Piece of Advice EachJohn: Pick a small pilot with engaged managers and start thereAndy: Understand the business problem first — don't implement tech for tech's sakeTim: Find an internal AI subject matter expert; you don't need a Head of AI

Why "Just Get Some AI" Is the Worst Brief You Can Write, Rod Schneider, Workforce.com

Rod returns to the podcast after two years to discuss what has genuinely changed in workforce management, and what is simply being repackaged.A familiar pattern is playing out across the industry: leadership sees AI-branded software, decides it looks promising, and tasks an operations manager with finding it. One layer deeper, the desired outcome is rarely defined. The brief drives the purchase, rather than the problem.In this episode:The Workforce.com origin story, from a university bar with questionable timesheet accountability and 30,000 pound punch-card scanners to a cloud-based product built around that problemWhy multi-region European payroll is so difficult, and how being built in Australia, home to some of the most complex earnings rules in the world, became a genuine competitive advantageThe decline of the detailed RFP, and why discovery conversations uncover the real requirement that documents cannotThe cost of poor alignment: mis-bought and mis-sold software, and how the sale gets celebrated while the operator's problem remains unsolvedA measured view on AI: bullish on accessibility, sceptical of "world first" claims for capability that has existed for yearsThe open question for the category: customisation in the operator's hands, or hardcoded into the systemA practical, operator-first conversation for anyone evaluating workforce technology or trying to translate a vague AI mandate into a real outcome.

Diego Vega & Rory at Rye Energy, The Hidden Cost That's Eating Your Margins

Energy is the line on the P&L that nobody owns and everybody pays for. In this episode, Chris sits down with Diego Vega, Founder and CEO of Rye Energy, and is later joined by Rory, Head of Operations and ex-chef, to crack open a category most operators have been forced to ignore.Why this conversation mattersHospitality consumes three to four times more electricity per square foot than the average business. A coffee shop, per square foot, burns more energy than a petrol station. And yet, energy procurement remains one of the most opaque, broker-led, deliberately complex purchases an operator makes. Diego compares it to where payments sat five years ago, before Dojo and the new wave of providers pulled back the curtain. Rye is doing the same for multi-utilities.What Rye actually doesRye is a platform that unifies data and contract terms across electricity, gas, water (and soon waste) for multi-site operators. Three core jobs: procurement, real-time monitoring via meter data, and bill validation. It benchmarks your sites against each other (Manchester vs Leeds vs London) and against sector peers, so you finally know what good looks like.The 40% problemOnly 40% of your energy bill is the actual commodity. The rest is non-commodity transmission costs, levies and fees financing the renewable transition. Lock in the best unit rate you like; the hidden cost stack is where margins quietly disappear. The cheapest kilowatt hour is the one you don't use, and reducing usage compounds savings because it pulls down the non-commodity charges too.The surprise finding from 100+ live sitesDiego went in expecting efficiency to be the headline win. It wasn't. The bigger unlock has been growth. Operators trying to open 5, 10, 17 sites a year keep getting stuck on single-phase to three-phase upgrades, undersized meters, and MEP plans that don't match the kitchen they're trying to run. Nobody on the team owns this, and a £50k landlord capex contribution rarely covers it. Rye is quietly removing that drag on growth pipelines.Rory on what operators get wrongAfter eight years in energy and a previous life in kitchens, Rory has seen the patterns. The biggest culprits:HVAC and extraction systems left running on poorly configured timers, sucking money overnight. Defrost cycles spiking load profiles at 3am for no operational reason. Sites moving in and forgetting to sort utilities until the supplier starts chasing debt.The fix is process, not heroics. Rye builds an average load profile per site (half-hourly), overlays what good looks like, and quantifies the gap in pounds. Same shape, different scale. The well-run site becomes the playbook for the rest of the estate.The macro picture nobody's planning forThree major shocks in six years: Covid (demand-side), Ukraine, and now Iran (supply-side). Jet fuel reserves reportedly down to three weeks of supply heading into summer. Energy crises become food crises through fertiliser and transport costs. Wheat, rice and coffee feel it next. Diego's point: in the next 18 months, regulatory changes around half-hourly data access could cut costs by 40-50% for operators who know how to act on it. Most won't, because nobody on the team is watching.When to actIf you're 6-12 months out from contract end, that's the window. Rye tracks the wholesale market up to a year ahead of your renewal and moves when the dip is right, rather than letting brokers run the clock down on you.The commercial bitRye only charges once it starts saving you money.

The conversation covers how real-time data, AI-driven automation, and seamless guest experiences are all dependent on getting the fundamentals of connectivity right.1. The Three C's of Connectivity (Liz McKinnon)Coverage – ensuring your restaurant has signal everywhere it needsCapacity – handling the growing volume of data trafficConnectivity – making it fit for purpose and reviewing it continuously, not just at install2. Connectivity as a Data Continuity Engine (Jatin Chandwani)Connectivity has evolved from a utility (like water or electricity) to a mission-critical data pipelineWithout it, team members work blind and guest experience suffers immediatelyDigital orders (mobile app, aggregators, kiosks) can make up 30–60% of revenue — all dependent on connectivity3. Speed, Taste & Experience in QSRThe challenge of serving fresh food (e.g. KFC's 15-min cook time) to customers who expect it in 2 minutesTechnology and data forecasting are key to managing this tensionAI forecasting for inventory and labor scheduling has delivered measurable improvements4. Real-Time Data & Agentic AIMoving from "dashboard era" (acting on yesterday's data) to agentic workflows (acting within the shift)Fryer data, hot-hold systems, sales data and customer data combined = next best action in real timeProperly connected stores can improve performance by 10–20%Kill switches and guardrails are essential — AI governance must be built in from day one, not added later5. Guest WiFi as a Business Channel"Snacking data" — QSR customers connect briefly; stadia customers stay for hours; both need seamless WiFiGuest connectivity supports app check-ins, order status, and acquisition/retentionWiFi splash pages can drive promotions, loyalty sign-ups, and personalized messaging6.

Let the Managers Manage with Conor Shaw and Emily Kane from Bizimply

Chris sits down with the team behind Bizimply, the Dublin-based workforce management and HR platform serving over 1,300 hospitality businesses and 100,000+ shift workers across the UK and Ireland. Emily and Conor share how they're marrying workforce scheduling with smarter HR tools, and what AI really means for the people powering the hospitality industry.Key Topics Covered🍺 Bizimply's StoryFrom a startup two doors down from the Guinness Brewery, Bizimply has grown into a 50/50 UK-Ireland business with a fully regional sales force. Founder Gerard's passion for hospitality people management sparked a product built for the 70% of the world's workforce on shift-based contracts, underserved by traditional HR software.👥 Workforce Management Meets HRWhy "stick to your knitting" is their product philosophy. Bizimply doesn't do payroll natively. They do workforce management and HR really well, and integrate with the best payroll providers. The mission: let managers manage, not fill in spreadsheets.📊 The Data Problem in HospitalityClean, trustworthy data is the foundation of everything. Without it, AI is just noise. Bizimply is investing heavily in data quality so that what surfaces to operators is accurate, actionable, and meaningful.🤖 AI: The Smart Intern on Your ShoulderConor's take: AI is like a brilliant intern, fast but always looking at the past. Emily's view: the goal is to answer questions before they're even asked, removing noise and showing each persona exactly what they need to know.⚡ What Bizimply Is Building NextIntelligent demand planning and automated scheduling, performance management tools tied to revenue and retention, a new UI designed around simplicity, and an operations hub connecting POS, payroll, inventory, and people.🔮 The Illusion of ControlMulti-site operators often believe technology gives them control.
