You know, after so many years w/ Domino’s, I didn’t want to play the coupon game w/ this new place and I priced everything fairly low. So of course… here I am trying to build sales and reluctantly thinking about coupons but… gonna be tough. People say “Do a $3 off for a large” OK, so so I priced...

Spinach/Feta/Tomato on Alfredo Spinach/Feta/Roasted Red Pepper on Alfredo BBQ Chicken Chicken & Roasted Red Peppers The weirder stuff is fun and people like the choices but they don’t sell often. I played around w/ asparagus and brussel sprouts- did asparagus & bacon on alfredo, asparagus &...

This is like a rash… won’t go away (for you). So you are paying $8K/month, he has a tenant for $10,500/month which over 15 years is an add’l $430,000 (not including increases) to him. Whole thing still scares me. I kind of like your dad’s idea… sort of; Let him cover ALL your expenses- plus...

If you have that kind of back-up… good for you. If your brother and dad are behind you emotionally, financially and philosophically/strategically… then that kind of changes things. Doesn’t make going forward the necessarily wise thing to do but maybe you can make that LL feel like Caffey in A...

A bad LL is like a bad cop… not many things worse. I respect your “all in” philosophy. Think about it… all you can do. By the same token- I think of things like “if you are in a hole, first thing is to stop digging” Wish I had tons of money to help, or great words of wisdom. I have neither.

The structure that holds the mechanicals, electronics and systems is almost irrelevant. If you have a Camaro and retrofit it with a Mustang engine, Mustang computer and wiring harness, a ford 9’ rear end… it’s essentially a Mustang. Who cares what the hood, fenders, grill and tail lights look like?

Not an encouraging way to begin a long relationship. I suggest that if he offers you a realistic buy-out that you take it. Agreed. That alone would be an impetus to walk away. Same with Andrew’s post… get what you can and walk. Not 60%, by the way. I’d see if you can raise that discussion w/...

Don’t pay a dime until issue is resolved. Agreed. Better to have that money in your account rather than his. Having said that… discuss that w/ your attorney but I’d wait on that check until you do so. The whole “not part of the plumbing” is comical but we’ve covered that at this point. All I...

Funny to read the replies… thought it was only me. It just depresses me…

I think is just a recipe for frustrated customers, a pain to implement… and makes such a small difference it is just pointless. Agreed. I used to argue w/ other franchisees who would say “I’ll deliver a 2-Liter” (WTF?) or “I’ll deliver breadsticks for $3.99” My minimum was $10 which was...

I noticed they are on the new Wendy’s ads.

When I had my Domino’s store a local guy who was starting up his own food delivery service came in pitching his services. I understood what he was doing- and good for him for trying/starting something (this was back in 2004 or so) but I could not get him to understand that I had that down! I...

When I hear 30%… I immediately go into “%$#@ you” mode. I mean… I don’t want to see charts or graphs or hear about incremental this is or add-on that… they can &%$# off. Period. Yes… I do feel better now 🙂

Rent/Util/Ins is $8500 for the year? That’s $700/month.

C’mon, man… you don’t know what “DOC” is? Yeah… me, either 🙂 Thought rent, utilities, etc but then… $8500? Can’t be that, though that’d be nice!

Agreed… find it funny, though. Not sure if it’s the dough… maybe store temps, cornmeal vs flour, procedures, etc

I had the exact opposite experience, paul. Never had any sticking w/ screens and while we did season, never had to re-season. I had nothing but massive sticking problems w/ Lloyd disks. I rarely replaced screens- a few here and there but they lasted forever- as in many years.

As D9 mentioned, any storage of raw meats adds another element to placement.

Brand new, never used. With chargers. Really nice signs- paid $250 each plus shipping. Graphics easily removeable, as you know. $140 each if you take all 4! (plus shipping) 603-801-1819 (call or text) [email protected]

Duh… just found the Classifieds… sorry!
