    health and dental insurance

    Humana Health insurance, no dental insurance, 10,000 deductible for a family of four 300 a month. I am basically self insured for all minor events, but if I was to have a car wreck, heart attack(caused by pizza business) I would be covered except for the first 10K of course.

    School Contracts

    I did a school contract when I worked for a franchise and it was a major pain in the a**. The bid has to be dirt low, I think $8 for your pizza will not even put you in the ballpark. LC or Dominos will be in the $5 - $6 range from my experience. If you do get the bid are you willing to be...

    Hands beat up from making pizzas everyday?

    NYFLPizza: One of my managers had a very similar problem. Turned out he was having an allergic reaction to the flour. I switched from Assoluti (Roma House Brand) to All trumps and his problems went away. You may consider switching flours and see if that helps, in our case the price difference...

    Weather is killing me

    It has been brutally hot again today, 105, and it is supposed to be above 100 the next three days. Just thought I would complain, but it could be worse this year we had to close a day because of ice storm.

    Lease Option Exercise

    royster13: Yes, in hindsight I wish I had gotten more/longer options, but I was down to my last dime when we opened. I was not concerned about three years down the road, I was just hoping I could make my first rent payment.

    Buying out competitor

    I have often had the same thought about opening a second pizza place with a different concept, like the hot and ready. When I get people that are just worried about price I could tell them hey I have a friend(ie me) that sales pizza for $5.99, they are not up to our quality but not bad for the...

    Walk in not cooling to temp and freezing up

    You may want to make sure your compressor is getting good air flow. I was having a similar problem with my cooler and cleaned the filter/metal screen in front of the compressor and the cooler immediately started working great. A wire bush and a little water is all I needed. I hope this works for...

    local pizza owner has been spying on us with binoculars

    I would not worry one bit about it. If he is concentrating on your business obviously he is not concentrating on his. Maybe you could send a pizza and a menu out to him the next time someone sees him spying.

    peel a deal

    I used peel-a-deal last year and it worked out great. A couple of the high school clubs sold them for $10 and I kept $5. The school really appreciated the help and I made some money too. I still have a few left and when organizations hit me up for money I let them sale the cards, which brings me...

    PS200 & Hood

    I have a PS200 double stack conveyor for sale and complete hood system. The PS200 needs some work, I used the ovens for 2 years but they had problems with the initial firing. This maybe an easy fix, but I live in a small community with no restaurant service industry and I have zero mechanical...

    TIME TOO RAISE PRICES!!!

    I raised my prices three weeks ago and have had hardly any complaints. I increased my second pizza prices by $2 and most of my side items $1, which is not a drastic increase, but take that increase across 300 tickets and it sure helps. This week I had my best sales week in two years, with zero...

    Weather Forced Closings?

    I am concerned about the weather as well. Wind chill is supposed to be minus 25 but very little snow. We will be open but I am not sure for how long. One small fender bender and there goes a weeks profit.
