    Going through the process of buying a pizza parlor! Need motivation or realism

    So where are their wages? Not part of the 38k for sure. There might be some sales off the top missing if there is a cogs of 55%. That should be in the low to mid 30’s. 40% really if they were doing a bad job managing prices/costs. 40% COGS on 218k purchases is $575k sales. What is going on here?

    Delivery charges/driver reimbursement

    I look at it every payroll. They are all within a close range. No issues so far. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Delivery charges/driver reimbursement

    Drivers make tipped wage on the road ($4.15) and are paid mileage for every mile that they drive. Very similar comparison to min wage +$1/delivery. $2 del charge.

    No Crust Pizza?

    Probably could just omit the oil, since sausage (especially raw) is mostly fat anyway.

    Best Advertising I have done on FaceBook

    Do you always put cheese on top of your toppings? Or just for this pizza? Interesting that you use a 10" spec on a 7" pizza. Is that the smallest pizza you offer, so simply just use those? charge for a 10"?

    Who uses steak?

    We are considering adding a steak product to our menu. Get requests weekly for steak subs, etc. Do you use steak? What do you use? If we add steak I want it to be something my customers are impressed with. We have a conveyor oven, microwave and a hot plate. We do not have a grill. We use the hot...

    Best way to increase online orders

    We use mailchimp as well. I like it, however we have very low open rates (around 8-12%). It says the industry average is 18.9% I feel like we have a lot of emails going directly to spam. Do not pass go, do not collect $200. I have experienced it sending to vendors, etc. this problem. Anyone know...

    Labor costs over 50%

    Jeremy I see where you are coming from. But why not try and train someone to run those shifts for you. Or train them to close for you. You open-8, they come in at 5 and close.

    Starting my Mailshark today.

    The pricing isn’t that bad. You figure eddm costs about 18 cents per piece. A 11x17 menu (if you get 10,000 from a competitor) is about 12 cents each (shipped). Their pricing is $220 for 500 pcs per week. 44 cents apiece. So they are charging about a 50% markup per piece. But they are doing all...

    We are high 30% for online orders. Always have a coupon in our menu or boxtoppers that is online OR app only. These are better deals than our other coupons. Have a higher ticket average for online orders. Been doing it since 2010. Cannot ever recall a no show for a cash order. Have had plenty...

    When you started / now how many pieces are you mailing out per week. That amount of sales growth is awesome!

    Labor costs over 50%

    I am not sure about the labor laws in Ohio, but just for a courtesy sense we don’t schedule any shifts less than 3 hours. Sure, sometimes someone will get sent home early, but that is not the norm. In my opinion it is not “worth it” for someone to be scheduled less than 3 hours.

    How does everyone forecast for big events like the Super Bowl?

    We were 8% down over last year. Actually this is the 3rd straight year decreasing sales on Super Bowl Sunday (overall sales are not decreasing). My guess is the protests might have something to do with it. Plus, we are about 45 mins south of Cleveland. So we don’t have a professional football...
