Coffee machines for reception areas: What is the right choice?
Coffee machines are no longer just machines which make your coffee -they are status symbols. When you walk into a company and you are greeted by the warm smell of freshly ground coffee, you know you have arrived at a company which means business. If receptionists are the face of companies then coffee is surely the taste and the smell! Coffee machines for reception areas are becoming more and more popular by the day in South Africa, as more companies are feeling the need to make the right impression on their clients. There are many options when it comes to a coffee machine for your front entrance, and today we discuss all the pros and cons of each.
The Simple Economical Coffee Solution:
If you see the benefit in providing something better than Ricoffy or Frisco but are not willing to break the bank then filter coffee would be your best bet. Filter coffee machines are easy to operate and easy to fill, and produce a great smell to greet your customers. Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates are not possible with a filter machine, but your customers will still appreciate the effort and be thankful that you have taken the trouble to provide them soothing other than instant coffee
The Easy All-In-One Coffee Solution:
An instant coffee vending machine will make your receptionists life easier than any other option. An instant vending machine contains everything including your coffee, milk, sugar and hot chocolate. A vending machine also allows your customers to operate the machine themselves without needing any sugar or stirrers outside the machine thereby avoiding that messy table look. An instant coffee machine also gives a wide array of beverage options including cappuccino, hot chocolate and moccachino, so although you customers will not receive a restaurant grade coffee (bean coffee) they will be very appreciative to have been offered something as fancy as a cappuccino just for visiting you
All the bells and whistles:
The last route to go is full out. More and more companies are sparing no expense when it comes to the way that they treat their customers. A fresh milk bean to cup super automatic coffee machine signals intent and proves you customers that nothing is too much for them. A bean to cup machine produces restaurant quality coffee at the touch of a button (like a vending machine) and also allows customers to help themselves. Because the machine grinds beans fresh, a bean to cup machine can result in the most beautiful smell of the lot.
Conclusion (The right coffee machine for your reception area):
Deciding on which option to go for is a personal choice and depends on budget as well as the message and image you want to portray. There is no right or wrong option and as long as your customers, your budget and most importantly you are happy at the end of the day then you know you have chosen the right option.
