So the question to be answered by those who demand to sell high quality pizza is this… Would you rather sell $15k worth of a Little Caesar’s quality pizza or $5k of your high end quality pizza. I think we all believe that the big 3 is the big 3 because of number of units, marketing dollars and...

I have used both and they are for 2 diff applications…however if we think outside the pizza box, the warmer would be more insulated for longer periods. The amt of heat output is diff. also. You should be able to use the proofer as long as it was not for long periods of time. As stated earlier...

I remember somewhere that Tom mentioned you are not to put yeast and salt together in the bowl. Add water, salt, sugar, flour and yeast in that order. Long time ago, I had the problem with not rise and realized (thanks Tom), that the salt and yeast will cancel each other out. Bubba

Instead of hitting up the old tenant for extras, treat the move as a new lease and ask the landlord for a couple of concessions. Possibly free or reduced rent and anything else you feel might be appropriate for your situation. Remember that visibility is one of the most important components to...

I have a Lincoln 1450, double stack. I run about 6m to 6.30m. I have found from experience that I can plan on, cushion included, 2 min per pizza. If I use both ovens, I plan on 1 min per pizza with orders over 8 pizzas. I have used this calculation on a weekly basis for over 4 years. I offer a...

I have an opportunity of acquire the space next to my shop. I was considering adding tables and tv’s and having sit down. I am concerned as to the ROI for sit down. I realize that people will spend more when they dine in. I also know that I need to have at least 25 or so seats for it to be...

I often wonder if the Post Office makes this topic confusing on purpose.haha The new rate for bulk mailing is .213 each. So compare that to your current mailing rate for what you are mailing and divide by $185 to get your breakeven pieces. You must mail at least 200 of the same piece to get...

Like many other things we encounter, if we are going to do something we need to go all out. If you half heartily push delivery, you will achieve the same results. I am totally baffled that the opinions on this topic are suggesting no delivery. Everyone’s market is different. You have different...

One thing I have learned is that most returned checks have low check no.s. If you get a higher check number, like 3k or 4k, it is most likely ok. I started thinking one day that most bad checks are from newer customers. Some of them I call opportunists. So, I instituted a rule that if you have...

Just a minute while I climb on my pizza box… If the “no discount” works for you…congratulations!! Keep it up. However, the big 3 are where they are for a reason. They sell to the masses, what they want. That is their niche. The belief that PJ has on discounting is that they should be at about...

A fast nickel is better than a slow dime. Take what you can from the customer and give them a value for their dollar. Don’t lose sight of the roi from the customer for a small amt. of money. Customer service is our business…we just add pizza to it. It has been said over and over, here and in...

Re: Looking to open a pizza place in Ft Collins, CO - Advice I currently do both, baked and unbaked. You can do both. You need the unbaked trays. PM me and I will give you the phone no. to our direct distributor. Very good prices. Bubba

I don’t normally comment on equipment because everyone has diff needs, but I have used these for 4 years. They work great and yes they are expensive. However, I have never thrown any of them away. There is a reason you don’t find them on ebay often…they are durable. Possibly if you just bought...

If you are only working 9 hours a week, then money wise, it is like not having a job at all. Seems the juice ain’t worth the squeeze. Seems like you know what you want to do, but you keep asking us…Give a notice of whatever length you want. It could be 4 weeks, if you want it to be. There is...

Do you have room to put in 2 nuts. Sometimes the 2nd one will keep the first one in place. Check your threads also.

As I have mentioned earlier, I am focusing on mailing my database and not putting in as much effort, as I use to, with shared mailings. A lesson I learned just a few months ago went like this. I sent a letter to my existing customers in March. It was to everyone who ordered since the beginning...

Actually, he is doing what Kamron has preached about…that is using adjectives to describe your food. He does a good job of describing the type of pep, chz, sausage, etc… When writing ad copy and menus…try to input adjectives that allow you to smell and taste the food as you read the description...
