    Using facebook?

    I’m thinking of doing the recipe contest to start interacting more with our new Facebook page. Then running the winner’s creation as a special and even having them cook on a certain night so all their friends can come in. I’m also encouraging my staff to interact with guests, especially the wait...

    plagiarism

    I am experiencing the same situation. There is a struggling restaurant not far from me that copies just about everything I do. I constantly hear from our guests that they overhear the staff talk about what we are doing and that they should do this or that. But that it insane man, you have plenty...

    Discount for Ordering Online

    It’s a fact that when people order on-line the check averages are much higher. That’s probably the reasoning behind the chain offering that special. For us I find it’s still a novelty and really don’t need to discount to get people to use it. We are experiencing a sales growth that is just...

    direct mail vs valpak

    I just got a PM from someone with a good question. He asked how I got my lists. That’s the beauty of doing it this way. There are no lists needed, it goes by courier routes. You choose which routes you want your menus mailed to and the post master gives them to the drivers or they put them into...

    direct mail vs valpak

    Hey Piper, On this mailing I created a whole new glossy menu and got 8k printed up. When I opened I was distributing a paper menu that really wasn’t as pro as I wanted it to look, so I saw this as a two fold opportunity to put out a pro menu and hit my entire delivery/eat in area. When I’m done...

    direct mail vs valpak

    Rockstar I advertise in our local small paper and they have a bulk mailing permit, Since I pay my bills and place ads every month he had no problem letting me use his permit number. I’m now mailing our menus complete with a small strip of coupons every week. My postage is only 11.2 cents a piece...

    How Much Sauce on wings

    Hey Bubba, Ya 4 oz is about right, but… we toss them after they are cooked, I guess it depends on what you want your finished product presentation to be. Also, offer some different flavors i.e. Hot garlic, General Tso’s, Garlic Herb (Butter, fresh chopped garlic, a little basil, oregano and...

    We're soooo close to being open. Thanks everyone!

    Awesome Pat! Good luck man, use everything you read here and be aggressive! One thing, I looked at your menu on-line, it’s very hard to read and I have a rockin’ computer. Get with who does your website and see if you can do something about that. Again, good luck, I’m up 200% from last year all...
