Why would having a dog in the logo hurt the business? Why would the wife and six sisters not eat wonderful pizza because of a puppy in the logo? What am I missing? 🙂

Yeah, the standard now is 1024x768 - I do a lot of pro design and have to fit into that critera!

Some kind of rubber cement is that rubbery stuff (captain obvious), but there are better options I think. There are those new “hard-core style” post-it notes (that are big and not by the post it company) that stick awesomely to just about everything and are subject to custom printing, they just...

We’ve done the same thing for a good 15 years here, and I know that the method has critics (and with good reason at some points). We simply make up the pizza inside a buttered aluminum pan, deli-wrap with the earlier mentioned deli wrapper, label and stick in case to sell. I hear a lot of...

I used Primo Gusto mozz/prov in an emergency one time, was really pleased with it. It baked a lot differently than the mozz/prov blend I use now, but it still was great, and a awesome ‘cheese pull’ if you know what I mean.

I think sales like that are the best! I ran a big ad in the paper, did $4.99 lg pepperoni pizzas for the families and 2/$6.00 heavy topped personal pan pizzas for the seniors, I had myself a blast that week. Keeps me busy!

Way back in they day before I worked where I do we used to get these big, awesome, goofy boxes from GFS (goofy because of the awful artwork, so awful that I loved it), I think they still have them too, if you run into a sticky situation.

I’ve always wanted to do something like this, but my prices are set up so stupidly (something I can’t really deal with) that I basicially break even with a BOGO. Awesome deal though, must say. 🙂

All I’ve ever had were crappy store bought Luigi’s… http://www.luigis.com/main.asp And they’re actually not that crappy, I just know from family that fresh is a ton better, I’ve just never been to a place in Michigan that serves them regularly.

This was just featured in the Detroit Free Press (Matzo Pizza). I think you should just experiment with the matzo and give it a shot (its just flour and water). There was a recipe in the Freep as well. http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/arti … 1/1073/YAK Its from their monthly “Yak’s Corner”...

Heh…you’re forgetting my favorite. Remember Super Mario Bros. from 1993? One of my favorite films ever, just because of how ridiculously awesome it is. And because King Koopa is Dennis Hopper. Pizza Delivery Man: Python Pizza here, may I help you? King Koopa: King Koopa here. Pizza Delivery...

Heh…this week sucks. 😃

For us, the beginning of the month is always the best, and the end is always the worst (for sale volume). So no matter what I could run an ad either the 1st week (if the special was for that week) or the 4th week (if your previewing a special, etc). I live in a half rich, half poor, mostly...

I remember reading an article (I think it was in PizzaToday) about adding game rooms, although I cannot find it online. I don’t remember much about size of the room, but I do remember a lot about the debate of purchasing the games or leasing them, etc. Leasing sounded better, but the cost...

Even though people continue to have good sales, or enough to keep them open, the restaurant business in general is terrible here in Michigan. I think that we are second in unemployment rate in the country, and there are quite a few places going under and shutting down or completely changing...
