Green Thumb Greenhouse Case Study The Crew - Dominic- Owner - Zoe - Second in command and CFO - Isabella - Human Resources - Noah - Lead manager of Greenhouse Workers - Greenhouse Workers - 21 full time workers History Dominic started Green Thumb Greenhouse as a sole proprietor ten years ago. While he enjoyed produce from the family garden and choosing to purchase recycled products, Dominic recognized a growing trend for going green globally. He would tinker on social media, sharing videos of the importance of utilizing recycled products and daily tips on how to grow and maintain plants. His business quickly took off. He preferred tending to the plants and not dealing with the day-to-day work of bookkeeping. Dominic recognized the need for adding staff but found himself struggling with the idea of delegating responsibilities. Zoe was a faithful customer of Green Thumb Greenhouse from day one. In fact, she and Dominic have known each other since high school. They had different personalities. She preferred to keep to herself and excelled in working with numbers. Dominic recognized that was a skill he lacked; it wasn't long before he hired Zoe to help with financials and take Green Thumb Greenhouse to the next level. When entering Green Thumb Greenhouse, imagine a serene setting filed with greenery and fountains. Looking around the store, you would see customers walking around enjoying a cup of the signature green juice made with ingredients harvested from the greenhouse. If you were looking for eco-friendly cleaning products or shoes made from recycled plastic, you could find them at Green Thumb Greenhouse. Although the greenhouse area is filled with direct sunlight the rest of the facility does not have windows, leaving portions of the shopping area rather dark. Operating in a mid-sized community of 15,000 , local competition was minimal. Zoe recognized the uniqueness of Green Thumb's products. She also realized that Green Thumb's prices were costs, could the price of the signature green juice be raised by 5% ? Since Green Thumb Greenhouse's inception, the online customer base remained loyal. Customers could shop easily from the comfort of their own home, enjoying the benefit of monthly membership perks such a free shipping and package bundles at reduced prices. Customers who made mention of Green Thumb Greenhouse on their social and tagged them would receive a 10% coupon for their next purchase. Between Green Thumb Greenhouse's robust online presence and the brick-and-mortar sales, Zoe is beginning to ponder about a second locatien. She believes that this second store could really help the business grow, but there are many immediate concerns that have kept her from visiting with Dominic regarding her ideas. While attending a recent city meeting, mention was made that road construction would be starting soon that would prevent cars from being able to enter their facility with ease. How would this impact the Farmers Market they hosted every summer, as well as many other businesses in the community? Also, on the news this morning was a story regarding increasing regulations on plant-made products. What will the current economy mean to business? Is it the right time to borrow money for the expansion? These questions increased Zoe's uncertainty about next steps. Staffing had grown in the past five years, from Dominic and Zoe's partnership to 21 employees. The company had wisely invested in an intranet program used for human resource applications a few years back. The efficiencies that the program offered freed up time to spend on hiring. Staffing positions were filled using careful selection to meet the growing demands and skill set needed. Employees were equipped with organizational charts clearly identifying the chain of command. Year over year sales grew. Weekly goals and accountability meetings helped staff Staffing had grown in the past five years, from Dominic and Zoe's partnership to 21 employees.

Staffing positions were filled using careful selection to meet the growing demands and skill set needed. Employees were equipped with organizational charts clearly identifying the chain of command. Year over year sales grew. Weekly goals and accountability meetings helped staff stay on track. Zoe was present and willing to take feedback to meet employee and customer needs. Unfortunately, the same could not be said for Dominic. With the growing success of the business, Dominic's presence onsite was minimal. Yearly goals were established, and employees were left to find creative solutions. His hands-off approach was appreciated by long time experienced employees, but new hires struggled with lack of direction. Noah was not a new hire, but seemed to lack the discipline to stay on track. As the business had grown, Dominic had yet to invest in some type of inventory system to track both the store and online Xales. As the year end approached. Noah knew he would be spending all weekend in the store manually counting inventory. Noah was embarrassed last week when the store ran out of fertilizer for the plants. Had he been aware, the situation could have been avoided. Noah confided in his long-time coworker Isabella regarding his frustrations, but Isabella had her own frustrations. With limited availability, she has been unable to draft critical company guidelines and policies to protect and educate employees. She was also feeling the pressure to hire more employees to meet business demands, so she reviewed notes from recent interviews. One candidate was highly qualified, but based on her responses it appeared this candidate was close to retirement. The ad stated "recent" college graduates. Why did this candidate even apply? Another candidate walked into the interview appearing 8 months pregnant. She was also qualified but Isabella could not hire someone who would just turn around and need time off. Isabella decided to run the ad again, even though she had two possibly qualified applicants. From the outside, Green Thumb Greenhouse appeared to be thriving. A closer look reveals the culture is shifting. Zoe is growing weary of Dominic's laid-back approach and often feel she is carrying most of the yeight of the greenhouse. Suddenly she is interrupted by her cell phone ringing. It's an angel investor that wants to discuss a new business opportunity with her
