Speaking from experience…there is little to no money made from Groupon. You are basically getting free exposure. By the time you take out the food cost of the food sold and then given away to Groupon, you break even. So as long as you are ok with just breaking even and receiving free exposure...

Couple of thoughts… You are buying equipment since he is taking the phone no. and name. The equipment likely is not worth $80k. To be sure what the cost is, you will need model no.s of all the big equipment pieces. Call around and get a 5 yr price. I think you will be surprised at the requested...

Initially it slows the line for “testers”. It is fun to play with but can be costly if folks waste a lot. Coke charges $300/mo lease on the machine. The syrup is costly and you have to have an ice machine that puts out a certain shape of ice. All of the syrups are bar coded and when it is out...

You can put fresh eggs in a clean deep dish pan and cook them in your oven. Bubba

I probably should have mentioned that you need to use cutting board material. I have one of these at my shop and it has lasted 5 years. I merely splash bleach on it occasionally to remove any stains. This material is so resilent that NO type of glue will adhere to it. I have a rocker knife...

Let’s think outside the box You can buy cutting boards anywhere these days. Buy the size you need and contact either a person you know who works with wood or a cabinet shop. Tell them the shape you want, probably round, and ask them to use a router to put a slight groove at the place you want...

If I remember correctly, I think he required at least half of the pizza to remain in the box for the guarantee to be used. He also only allowed it to be used once. He would get your mailing info to send you mailings and this would be cross referenced to be sure it was not abused. If not, you...

Remember that the handbook needs to be state specific. If you want info on liquor, contact the local board of folks who license and control. I would venture a guess that any company selling the alcohol to you would also have the info. I use a PEO and they have provided a handbook that has been...

Gee, I really need to slow down my reading. I initially got a totally different take on the subject line. 😃 😃 Been one of those weeks. Bubba

Ask the county health inspector to print out a copy of the rule and laminate it. Keep it behind the counter and when she comes in, show her.

How about training the order takers to ask for names and addresses “so we can send you coupons”. This way you will have a phone no. and name for all customers. Bubba

Re: Lost Sales & Overcharges Wait while I set up my soapbox… Maybe the first priority should be to put the employees on the payroll for obvious legal reasons, namely federal taxes and workers comp. Do you really want to tick off an employee who can hold things over your head? I bet the savings...

Let’s not forget that there was a small % paid to PJ corp. from MM for the nice sale of ovens to all the stores. As an independent buying a new oven, the usual savings does not show up for several years vs buying one used. Bubba
