    What are all of you doing in your communities? I’m looking for something new to get my name out

    Here we grow again!

    Rockstar pizza: Forget the jump play thing. Go with redemption games. They are great source of cash income. Relatively easy to maintain and will drive you just as many bday parties as the inflatable thing. We buy all our games through Bay Tek gaming. If you are serious about this idea, give...

    WORKING 2 OVENS

    bodegahwy: This is how we do it. We have 2 double stack lincolns 1600. On the weekend we run 2 for dine in & carry out, the other 2 for delivery. So basically my kitchen is 2 in 1. Depending on the competence of our crew, we can have as little as four cooks, or as many as six. I need to add...

    Ovenable wings

    masspizza: Tyson Jumbo Fully cooked for bone in. And La Nova’s for boneless. They both are easy to use and the end products are great.

    I'm tired of hearing about the bad job market...

    Piper: If it makes you feel any better, I’m having the exact same experience as you are. If I can find the good ones, they don’t leave. Problem is, as you said, finding the good ones. All my applications recently are from people who want full time, no nights, no weekends. :roll:

    Soft Serve/Pizzeria

    mrschleg: After 31 years of traditional ice cream, I put in 5 frozen yogurt machines this past August. Sales are bouncing around from 600 to 1000 a week. I expect with summer coming sales should go above 1k a week. Each machine is cleaned twice a week. To clean one machine it takes about 45...

    A study on Online Ordering

    eupher61: We have had Phoenix Point of sale since August '05. As far as Granbury service/support goes they have been less than responsive since they became Granbury, but they have addressed and solved any issues I have had recently when they did get to them. We have had zero (knock on wood)...

    Record June?

    We haven’t set any records but this has been the best first half of the year since 2005. Up 20% over last year- which isn’t say a whole lot and up 3.5% over 2008 which was a really good year for us. After last year all it takes is one bad Friday to make me think this great start is stopping. Now...

    Does anyone do work these days?

    pcuezze: Forget contractors, I have enough issues finding and hiring capable people to work. If I see another application that wants full time BUT no nights or weekends I’m going to explode.

    Portion Control

    We train our cooks to weigh/portion every topping on every pizza, no exceptions or excuses. I’m not an idiot, I catch my cooks cutting corners when we’re crazy busy, and I’m not in my shop open to close 7 days a week, so I’m sure I don’t see everything, BUT with my POS and daily top 5 counts, I...

    Heavy Snow and Delivery

    All of my delivery vehicles have snow tires on them, so unless we get massive amounts of snow getting around isn’t too much of a problem. I constantly harp on my drivers about slowing down, being more cautious, and stick to the main roads as much as possible. With that being said when we are...

    Getting Ready To Start My 2nd Full Cycle With Mail Shark

    indie pizza: What sort of results have you experienced? Have you seen a sales increase? How many new customers? How many new customers repeat buy? I’ve been debating signing up but for $300 a week I’d probably have to stop doing some other advertising and I have a couple more months with those...

    How do you handle driving records?

    For over the past 15 years our insurance company has always run driving record checks for potential drivers. They informed us now they will not longer offer this service. So how do you guys find out if your potential driver doesn’t have a driving record 3 pages full of violations?
