    Marketing

    I will edit this post and explain some more about a few of these events… but this is what I have on the list right now. I’ve also requested info from the Moving Target people who are now doing birthday card mailers, and I will be starting up my new mover’s program again. My partner was supposed...

    Marketing

    I will post what I’ve been working on later. Most of mine is tied to sporting events or other events I’m trying to host in my dining room, so it might not be as useful for you… But I’m always willing to share.

    Size of pizzas and volume?

    Sweetp, Doing some rough math on cost per square inch, it looks like your FC is dramatically better on the 12" pizza. Rather then upselling them to the 16" pizza, what about pushing a low cost and low fc side item like Breadsticks to boost the check average AND the bottom line!

    old girl vs new girl

    Letting her know that the customers have said something to you might be enough to get things straightened back out. If she is a good worker, then she probably has a little bit of pride in her work. Seeing how other people see her might just be all that is needed. Sometimes we just need a reminder.

    New Years Eve

    Ouch! My feet are tired. My walk-in is barren. I have a lot of prep work to get done tomorrow before we open. I might even have to try Costcos or Sams for some cheese. Friday was a little bit off, but I did more today (NYE) then we did on Friday. I ran 9% labor for the day and I took the phones...

    Night # 6 of our biggest week

    Re: Night # one of our biggest week Bodegahwy, What is the cost of a hotel room out that way during this time of the year? Any other housing options for short term? I was just thinking… in 2000, I spent 4 months working in Yellowstone National Park. I loved it. The money sucked and I...

    WHEN you figure it out. Let me know. I’ve never been able to crack the Sunday church crowd either. We tried for about 2 months and moved back to our previous hours of 3pm until 9:30pm

    Speedline Install going horribly wrong. But all is well now.

    Re: Speedline Install going horribly wrong What issues did you run into? I wasn’t happy about paying to have an installer come out and install my system (not Speedline) but it sounds like the install is very important!

    How many of you got a card from your vendors this year?

    Paul, If you find an artist to draw that, let me know the cost. I may be interested in going in on that with you. Having him do a “master” and then allowing him to insert our logo onto the pizza box. -Scott

    Night # 6 of our biggest week

    Re: Night # one of our biggest week It sounds like you need to find a way to rent an oven for the week. Maybe one of those traveling oven guys needs to come visit you for the week. With it being around the holidays maybe they take time off anyway.

    new years day

    We don’t deliver during the day, so I’m considering just opening up at 3 and bringing in my driver a few hours early… we normally start delivery at 5pm. I’m just not sure yet. Anyone else not deliver during the day? What is everyone else doing?

    Wife suggested I open a restaurant...

    If it is in your heart man, you have to follow it. Having said that. Don’t touch the 401(k) and think about a home equity rather then selling the house. The housing market is weak, and interest rates are low!

    Does anyone sell pasta?

    I think you should look at only doing penne. The noodles are big enough that they hold up well. They are hollow to hold sauce, and they are easy to eat. Check some menus at some of the American Fare places like Applebees or something along those lines… Unos etc. Mostly penne on the menu.

    Does anyone sell pasta?

    J, Why get into serving 3 different types of noodles? Sauce I get. But why prep three types of noodles?

    saputo cheese doesn't care about the indies

    As I understand things, that cheese is too green then. It needs to age for a month before you should use it. Assuming that the 13th is the manufacture date, they got that to you quick!

    What is the date of the cheese? Maybe your distributor accidentally froze it?
