Roy, No I have not sat down and calculated it all yet (primarily what I was looking for pricing for at this point). I have seen a lot of the chains doing it, and had the opportunity presented to me. A lot of the hotels will allow us to keep our menus up at the front desk, but some offer...

Does anyone know where I can get a good deal on Hotel Keycards and Sleeves? Have an opportunity to knock out a couple of the big guys.

Hey everyone, I will be upgrading my Point of Sale this month, and am looking to see if anyone would be interested in buying my current system, Supermenu POS (http://www.supermenupos.com). The Package: 1 Thermal POSx Receipt Printer 1 DOT Impact Kitchen Printer 1 POSx Cash Register 2 eMachine...

I apologize if this comes off as rude, and I may be completely mistaken, but I feel a bit “played”. Your post seemed a little to sales pitchy, so I looked at your other posts and it seems you have been plugging away that all of your 5 posts have been promoting this Facebook tool, which is fine...

When I worked for one of the big three we used LSM (Royster hit it on the nose, Local Store Marketing) to reference things like door hanging, business flyering, banner shaking etc that was done specifically to raise sales at a specific location or within a certain radius as opposed to national...

KJS, I do not have any knowledge or experience to comment on the population, and even if I did the others have done a fantastic job explaining how it does work. But I do want to share something of mine that relates to you. When I opened my shop I had just turned 24, and put my entire savings...

I have used Facebook as a primary marketing outlet since I’ve opened. I have personally noticed that Facebook seems slowly scale back their overall effectiveness, resulting in you paying more. I have given up on using their pay features.

I have been going over some of his free articles, and I must say he seems to have some fantastic advise. I am having trouble finding his books for sale though, any idea where I may look? And does anyone know if the Black Book is worth the money today?

Thank you very much for the information everyone. I appreciate it. It looks like I will be staying my course. wa dave: I have heard a lot about Big Dave, what is the best way for me to search some of his posts?

Hello TTers, Had a little issue I was hoping some people could chime in on. I have recently posted about wanting to do some coupons to match offers by some of the big chains in the area, as there are quite a few. The first Wednesday of the month our local Papa John’s Pizza does a business...

I know a lot of people try to do their immediate area once every 4-6 weeks. They will break it down into zones and cycle through. Consider partnering up with schools, hotels, churches etc offering reward and incentive programs to drive traffic. Fundraisers for the schools and churches work well.

Hey everyone, I am trying to weigh the pros and cons of doing aggressive early week carry out specials (i.e, 50% off Monday, BOGO Tuesday, etc). Here is a little bit about my shop and my market: Within a 5 mile radius we have the following pizza shops: Little Caesars Hungry Howies x2 Pizza...

OP, For what it’s worth, I would definitely consider using Kamerons loyalty program, Repeat Returns. It has great features for keeping your customers happy, engaged, and coming back to you. I tried it before and was satisfied with the overall program (I had to stop using it however due to not...

Zigcat, This situation is difficult to solve because it is really dependent upon the individual owner, but here is my take on it. I have a customer who ordered a pizza back about 9 months now. At that time I was running a special so their pizza came to $10 before tax and other charges. At the...

Hey everyone, I wanted to take a poll to get a quick idea of what you guys do for Memorial Day.

I did one my first year of business and barely received any return. Decided to stay at the hotel one night to see why and found out that the third party company puts you in the guide, but that does not necessarily mean that the hotel staff will recommend you. Following year I decided to offer...

To answer your question: Vistaprint.com has them, not sure of pricing. To add my 2 cents: The whole menu in the windshield wiper upsets me as a consumer, and actually turns me away from a business. I do not want people messing with my property, and I know from past experiences a lot of...

I am assuming you paid some kind of security deposit upon moving in, and likewise so did the previous tenant. That being said, the landlord should have used that money to get everything cleaned up an in shape. If he didn’t, that is on him. I would make him the offer to clean it up for a portion...

AJ, Back when I used to be with Papa John’s and we would do major events, we had a steam cabinet in a trailer. It would hold about 20 - 25 16" Pies in boxes for multiple hours because of the humidity it did not dry out. We would do events selling over 100 full pizzas across the day, and would...

Tom, Thanks for the great advice. On average, my dough is between the 65 - 70 degree mark when going in to the walk in (when I do the dough by myself).
