​
Overview

The Staffing Calculator automatically calculates and displays the number of staff members needed based on guest count and service duration. This helps set customer expectations and justify pricing.

​
Configuration Options

​
Service Length

  • Minimum Hours: Set the shortest service duration you offer
  • Maximum Hours: Set the longest service duration available
  • Supports half-hour increments for flexibility

​
Guest Count Controls

  • Increment Value: Set how much the +/- buttons change the count (1-100)
  • Smaller increments (5-10) work well for intimate gatherings
  • Larger increments (25-50) are better for corporate events

​
Staffing Ratios

  • Service Capacity: Define how many drinks/services one staff member can handle per hour
  • Maximum Staff: Optionally cap the number of staff shown (leave empty for unlimited)

​
Display Modes

Shows an interactive display with staff member icons that adjust based on selections:
  • Customize staff titles (e.g., “barista” / “baristas”)
  • Add descriptive text (e.g., “Serving lattes, cappuccinos, and more”)
  • Upload custom staff photos for a personal touch

​
Text-Only Mode

For a simpler appearance, disable the visual counter:
  • Displays only the form question without graphics
  • Customize the question title and subtitle
  • Calculations still happen behind the scenes
