    Pizza Hut manager fired for refusing to open on U.S. Thanks

    Re: Pizza Hut manager fired for refusing to open on U.S. Tha His days are numbered. They’re trying to save face at this point, but they’ll find a way to get rid of him within the next year in a way that won’t make any headlines. I’ve noticed more and more businesses open this Thanksgiving…...

    Shout out to Mail Shark

    I agree, I love my menu. Have never seen anything like it, it was just what I wanted. I am at the end of my year long mailing cycle, very happy with it. Interested to see how sales do without the mailing. Also will be nice not putting that 300 bucks a week into Quickbooks :mrgreen: Worth it for...

    Dough balling machine?

    I’ve been looking for a good used one for a while, they are hard to find it seems in my area. I just found a dealer that bought up a bunch of DR42 Univex rounders, have the opportunity to buy one for 1k, which is pretty good in my opinion, but give pause now as to why it cannot be recommended...

    .70 cents a box?

    I pay about .30 a box for the natural brown ones (14 inch). You’re being fleeced by someone, most likely your food vendor. If he wanted to im sure he could save you some money going with the brown boxes, or at least shop for a better deal somewhere else. My vendor gets boxes from Arvco… I was at...

    Coupon customers review a Fresno Pizzeria/Beer outlet

    If they are hooked, they won’t wait until groupon to go back. They’re baiting the people in charge who will inevitably read the thing to keep putting up groupon offers in fear it’s the only way to bring people back/in. Or they work for groupon themselves. :cry:

    My Next Marketing Vehicle (?)

    That’s cool… I have 40-50 pizza delivery orders for schools, I’m not sure I could do it all in one trip with this thing, though. Plus I know the lines to get it wrapped will give my graphics guy fits (which means it’ll cost me more). Would certainly turn heads, though.

    VCM vs PLanetary

    We also use the Stefan VCM… love it. We also don’t cool the mixer in between batches, we do about 8-12 25lb batches a day. Have not had the bad luck the previous poster stated in regards to repair costs… have supervised 5 stores over the last 5 years (previously to opening my shop) with only one...

    Domino's "Live Camera" let's you watch pizza making

    I thought about this… or perhaps a ‘live cam’ showing the oven and what is coming out. Just takes one dumb employee to make you regret the decision, though… so I took the high road with my idea. Good luck Dominos. :twisted:

    Re: What to do when your walkin wall starts looking like thi Cover it with FRP? That’s what we did with ours… nice white box and easy to clean.

    Confused and Frustrated.

    You guys should have a pretty good idea on what your P&L is if you do everything. Sounds like you are in a pretty good position to be bargaining… doesn’t sound like the place would run without you but it sounds like he is assuming all the risk if things go south. You need to sit down and hash...

    Detroit Style Pizza

    Speaking to a few people I know that have about 10 LC’s between them, the Deep Deep Dish is doing very well. They use a different yeast mix for the dough, it’s a little lighter dough, similar to their cheese bread with the ‘burnt’ cheese on the edge (that they call carmalized, which drives me...

    We won local "Best Pizza" award

    That’s awesome. I had a CPA come by late last year to order pizzas for a pizza party he throws every year for his clients, they get a few pizzas from each shop and rate them. I remember delivering them myself and waiting to here back what they thought. They sent me a letter a few weeks later...

    Menu pricing thoughts and suggestions

    I originally did it with just the number, no dollar sign… and people didn’t get it. “Oh, that’s the price?” After hearing that 20-30 times, I just put a dollar sign next to the number.

    Custom Printed Pizza Boxes

    FSA quoted us a price of around 20.00 a bundle on custom 14 inch boxes. Currently we are getting plain brown 14 inch boxes from them for 14.75. I’ve been using box toppers to spruce them up a bit, not willing to take the custom plunge just yet.

    Class Action Settlement

    I’ve gotten four of them. Just law firms fishing for 25% of whatever we get. They went in the garbage, Im not sure this thing is quite settled yet. I read a lot of conflicting reports. Either way I’ve only been in business since March so this doesn’t effect me too much. Although lower rates...

    Need Help for input. BIG ORDER coming in

    We use the 12 inch bread bags mentioned earlier in this thread… we also wrap them in grease resistant sandwich wrap as the bags will leak butter if we don’t. http://www.wrapituptogo.com/index.php?m … ath=400_60 Should get them in about 3-4 business days (not sure when your order is). We get an...

    Pizza sliders?

    During their free promo yesterday we got some of their excess customers as they were quoting at least 2 hours for delivery. That must have been a nightmare dinner.

    Pizza Expo Promo Code?

    To go off topic a bit, I have been waiting to purchase a POS until going to the Expo. Do they generally have ‘show specials’ at this event?
