My sales were actually pretty good, averaging $24-$28k per month. If I were to remain open the rest of the year, I would gross about $350k this year.

After 1 1/2 years, I am calling it quits. Tired of struggling to keep afloat. Anyone looking for a deal, especially in NC, I am asking $60k for everything. Lincoln Double stack 1450 9’ hood with fire supression Champion dishwasher Manatowoc 600lbs ice machine 3 unit POS (includes 2 epson...

I use a 1450 double, and my propane usage is about $500/mo.

I am about 20 minutes from I95 in NC. Stop by and I’ll treat you to an awesome dinner!

I bake my BrakeBush wings in my conveyor oven, and they are crisp and tender. They are pre-cooked and breaded, just add sauce when they come out. Sauce is Franks and margarine. It’s all in how you cook them.

Use BrakeBush wings…much better than LaNova. My customers rave over them.

I have a P&L sheet I used for estimating my costs when i started. PM me and I’ll send it to ya.

Since this is my first year open, I really don’t have any trends to go by. However, I have seen a nearly 25% increase in business this month, and just over 10% increase last month. I don’t know if the increase is due to the new dining room, or if it is due to some other changes. In January, I...

Mine are all done as ordered. No pre-sheeting unless I have a large order. I can get a pie in the oven in under a minute, and so can most of my employees. It takes longer to make a sandwich than a pie.

I have a driver do it between 2 - 4 every day.

Find a computer geek that will trade setup for pizza. Maybe a college or high school kid. It’s not rocket science, but can be daunting if you don’t know anything about it. PM me and I’ll send you my hardware list. It’ll give you a base to work from.

I did the ebay thing as well, and had no issues at all. Point of Success is the way to go for a starter system.

I’ll be there. Actually staying a couple days after to do some sight seeing.

So now that I have my dining room open, I am looking to add birthday parties to it. Does anyone do this, and if so, what are some of the ideas that have worked? Do you charge a flat fee or a per child fee? Thanks
