    how to encourage people to pay with cash vs credit

    It’s about 60/40 here CC vs Cash. Do cash drops, I’m not sure why anyone is worried about someone robbing them for a bunch of money when they can drop X amount in the safe when needed.

    pizza shop sign

    I don’t know why anyone that owns a business would want to put their two cents into anything political or controversial. Just leave it alone, if you want to be topical, reference sports.

    Taco Pizza recipe needed

    Stanislaus makes a salsa ready tomato, we add seasonings and veggies to it to create our salsa. Instead of plain chips we top with crushed Nacho Cheese Doritos, lettuce, tomato, and cheddar (in that order). Sell a ton of them.

    can anyone give me any feedback on Revention?

    I’ve had Revention now for almost 2 years and I love it. I pay for the support contract, it was a given when I got the system and I knew the cost to me before getting into it. Perhaps a 6 month or 1 year of free support would serve them well with customer relations… I think issues are rarely...

    Unbleavable

    We had someone at my previos job no call no show for a week and than win unemployment because he was not informed his not showing up to work would lead to his termination. Now when the occasion calls for it I document everything in warnings even a no-call no-show that can’t be signed… 4 years...

    Papa Murphy's

    Papa Murphys down the street from us is about 75% food stamp sales… people with real money to spend can’t afford to go there. Tempted to open up a satellite take-n-bake shop.

    I hate Domino's

    I agree about Dominos. The only dumb thing they’ve done recently is dropping the ‘Pizza’ from their name simply to push their add-ons, where as Pizza Hut does something stupid every few months. I encourage all the chains to do dumb things, Dominos doesn’t do as many as I would like. This robot...

    Costco

    I’m under the impression Costcos’ food court is a loss leader, much like their rotisserie chickens. I think their slices make up the majority of those sales and their convenience is second to none if you’re shopping and you’re hungry. It’s unique but despite their volume I don’t think many of us...

    Complicated Employee issue

    You have a known vs. an unknown, I would always go with the known… unless the known wasn’t that good.

    How much time do you spend in your shop?

    Still at about 65 hours a week, 7 days a week and probably a little less than 10 hours a day. The other day my wife and I left at 6pm and it felt like a day off. Problem is I’m not just replacing 1 superstar (me) I’m replacing 2 (my wife). We can obviously give each other off but that’s no fun...

    Why add water to your sauce?

    Tony, that’s quite the resume. You are amazing. Clearly you have this figured out, come open up across the street from me. My water sauce will run you out of town in 6 months.

    Is this Adequate delivery insurance?

    My State Farm insurance agent told me they do not do delivery insurance. I had to go through Progressive and it was about 3k for the year with 2 cars and 4 drivers (including myself) covered on each.

    Tracking Delivery drivers times / timers / tech tool?

    'seems hard to get them to follow up" 3 strikes and you’re out… they’ll follow up with no problem. Don’t spend extra money on something your drivers could and should be doing for free.

    Building in seperate LLC

    My bank required I get an EIN for the llc I hold my property in. It only takes a few seconds on the irs website to get one. I think you would want to keep things as separate as possible.

    Raising Prices While Increasing Sales

    The good thing about price increases, is everyone is doing it. At least in my area. I love seeing all the fast food prices going up, Subway, etc. I think the public is becoming a little more numb to the fact that costs are increasing and there is less backlash now then there used to be.

    Black Book

    Taken from the forward… The original Black Book was 400+ pages. I’ve edited this down to remove old-school marketing stuff (digital has replaced so much) – but the meat and potatoes are completely intact. Technology changes in the blink of an eye… human desires and motivations remain constant...

    Yelp

    My erroneous (competitor) reviews got filtered, couple other axe grinding reviews got filtered, few good ones got filtered along with them but that still leaves 10 reviews or so, the majority of them quite favorable. I really can’t get too angry about the whole thing. I’m more happy that...

    Customer Complaint....

    I’ll continue to avoid their phone calls. Seems like the safest route.

    Should I be Worried?

    I started up with mailshark again about 2 months ago… I don’t know why I ever stop. 5 pieces of professionally designed mail including our new menu which looks fantastic, the 500 bucks a month that comes out of my account every week is a drop out of a very large bucket. Don’t worry about...
