I can help you with the 12" and 16" pizzas. The 7" you’re on your own. …Sauce…Cheese… 12"…4 oz…6 oz… 16"…8 oz…12 oz… Hope this helps. -J_r0kk

LOL… heather hit the nail on the head. Please make sure you’re prepped. Plan on sales double or triple that of a normal day. The excess sales will be from your $5 pizzas so you’ll need to prep accordingly: Normal Day…$1,000 CAD…$3000 difference…$2000 $2000 / $5 per pie = 400 pizzas or 50 trays...

I’ve skimmed through some of the responses and apologize for not reading through them, but I read the original post and would like to comment if I may. If someone has already answered in this fashion I do apologize for that as well: What works for some people may not work for others...

Sorry, I’ve been busy. Some of my soldiers came back and I’m doing everything I can to handle the business coming in. I’m pulling double duty working 60 hour weeks at store number one while trying to get store number 2 on track so my time is very limited. I’m here though if anybody needs help...

Nick and ddariel20 hit on something I’d like to explain a little further: What you’ve got going on is an identity crisis with your pizza sizes. What you call a large is a JUMBO size to most other pizza businesses. What you call a medium is everyone elses large size. No, you don’t need to carry...

I just ordered food today. $1.99/pound USFoods. -J_r0kk

Sorry, Guest is right. Look more towards $1.25 for a Large, $1.50 for an XL for additional toppings. -J_r0kk

When applying your pricing for Large and XL one topping pizzas you need to calculate the cost of your pizza. Divide that cost by 20%. This should be an approximate regular menu price for a one topping pizza. Example: Large one topping cost…$2.05 $2.10 / 20% = $10.50 XL one topping cost…$3.00...

$10.99 for a Large one topping pizza. But I can give you an additional large one topping for just HALF PRICE! Would you like some ice cold Pepsi products to go with that order today? Maybe an order of our delicious jumbo wings? Extra Large one topping $13.99 (Large = 14", XL = 16") -J_r0kk

Well guys, I’ll be the first to “eat crow”… As some of you may know I was a “freehand” cheeser. I believed that if you trained your hands you could get close to the same exact amount of cheese on the pizzas every time. I’ve always thought this and even working for the bigger chains (PJ’s and...

Actually guys, it’s exactly the opposite. As the Guest eluded to, the 8 oz. cup is liquid ounces. One 8 oz. cup of cheese… hold on, I’ll got weigh it (I’m playing with portioning at my store right now as a matter of fact)… One cup is consistently between 3 7/8 oz. and 4 oz. of cheese. Two cups...

I would think you’d need a menu in French rather than Spanish… LAISSEZ LES BON TEMPS ROULER! -J_r0kk

Re: For those of you doing around $10,000 a week in sales… Roger, To justify the new location you would have to do $5,000 per month more in sales vs. your $900/month in rent store. You’d have to do $5,750 per month more in sales vs. your $600/month in rent store. If you feel this location will...

Re: For those of you doing around $10,000 a week in sales… up, To find the traffic counts in front of potential locations I use the following website: http://www.ksdot.org/burtransplan/maps/ … Cities.asp The new store has been set back a few weeks. I lost my general manager in Junction City...

Re: For those of you doing around $10,000 a week in sales… Roger, Here are some things I look for: Address count in front of the potential location. I usually gravitate towards smaller markets between 5,000 and 20,000 addresses. The numbers I’d like to see are around 10,000 cars/day. Free...

Scott, Don’t forget to stop by my old Domino’s in Goodlettsville, TN (Long Hollow Pike exit). If you go inside take a look at the back of the store. There’s a “Wall of Fame” back there with record days and record week numbers posted onto it… :lol: wannabes. -J_r0kk

I’d like to post a comment on this subject: First, I’ll admit I’ve never been to business school and I know nothing of this Harvard Philosophy. With that being said, I’ve always had the mindset that your average family will order pizza… whenever they’re hungry for pizza. It doesn’t matter if...

Snow, It’s not quite a wash, but close. We pay 4% royalties. The savings from USFoods is about 2%… numbers I can live with. Plus, the owner of Wheat State Pizza, Inc. has been one of my best friends for about 10 years, back when we were managers at Papa John’s together. -J_r0kk

Father’s day didn’t really affect me (sales-wise) as much as the 4-day military holiday. For the soldiers I’ve got left on my army post, was a 4-day vacation (Army’s birthday) in which they could go home or do whatever. I was actually prepared to do a little more than normal Sunday night when...

Guys, I got my 10,000 doorhangers in on Wednesday of this week. They look exactly as advertised. I paid for basic shipping and the entire process from the initial order to the date it was delivered took about 9 business days. The quality of the boxtoppers still blows my mind. It’s 28 lb. high...
