pardon me, i’m new. what do you mean by “school rights”?

i read somewhere that an independent operator had one of these big boys come to town and they were hit pretty hard. so they ran a promotion: clip out and bring in the big boy’s ad from your phone book and get a free pizza or whatever you are willing to sacrifice. I guess its kind of a dirty...

are these prices for shredded mozzarella? Does anyone add other types of cheese to their mozzarella for a “regular cheese pie”?

What is the best day of the week to have the grand opening of a new pizzeria? Furthermore, is it beneficial to open the doors for business on one day and then have the “grand opening” a few days later?

Here’s something i plan on doing when i open. Bring some free samples to busy-bodies and talkers such as hair salons and real estate agents. Hair dressers are always looking for ice breakers to talk to their customers. if they like your pizza maybe they will start a conversation with, “hey, have...

somebody please tell me its easier to open a pizzeria in a small town. if you want some extra business you could try drug reps. my landlord owns a pizzeria in a different town and has hooked up with drug reps and does a ton of sales before he even opens the doors in the morning. i had already...

i have zero experience right now, so i am not attempting to second guess jrokk b/c he knows what he is talking about and he’s really helpful. this is actually also a question from me i guess. wouldn’t you want the second advertising wave to come around super bowl weekend instead of jan 23-31? or...

the name is not long, people are just lazy. plus you may not be able to make out the letters from far away but hopefully you can recognize the picture. PS- the kids who can’t read or cant read fast enough can see the smily pizza guy and say the their parents WE WANT PIZZA!!! my target market is...

i don’t remember where i got this idea but i thought i would pass it along b/c i think its a good one and everyone in this tank has been very helpful and encouraging to me. Custom phone book covers with your logo and phone number and maybe even a menu on the back. i know everytime i’ve ordered...

do door hangers bring in more business than mailing? obviously you save postage with doorhangers but which is more effective?

i definately need a word treatment. but i would also like a nifty little picture of some sort for people who don’t have time to read. i’ve made a drawing of a “pizza guy” with a pie in hand but it looks awfully familiar and a liitle generic. basically i need something professional looking for...

is there any formula for how much help to hire like based on sales or something? i haven’t opened yet and i have no idea how much help i will need. so if you can help me figure out how much help will be enough help it would really help. 😃 (hmm, i suddenly have the urge to listen to the beatles)
