    EMPLOYEES

    Use an application form that specifies that some aspects of the job require lifting, etc - you may want to “borrow” the text from an application that a large company has gotten approved by their lawyers (like costco, or maybe YUM - you know who YUM is, right?). That’s for next time - so you at...

    Calling all Marketing Gurus

    I don’t think you’ll get broke from giving each student ONE free slice. Make sure it’s an actual coupon that has to be redeemed, that they can’t print fakes and get a slice every day… If the dean resists, perhaps tie it in to something the dean wants? Like “show us your completed registration...

    Is a pizza just a pizza???

    I think the plastic bag would decrease quality by steaming the pizza. I could be wrong - but I’m thinking you might as well microwave it. Here’s what we do: We deliver the HIGHEST quality we can - perhaps the highest quality that can be delivered - other than delivering an oven to your house...

    1st night with the Y600's... Question...

    There are many variables - your dough, for one. But basically, I encourage you and your oven-guy to experiment and come up with a vent/temp setting that cooks the pie perfectly. It MAY be a lower temp and open vents that gets your cheese bubblier before the bottom’s done - if that’s what he’s...

    Anyone have Wheat Crust on their Menu???

    Ask J_Rokk - he’s “Wheat State” pizza and sells more wheat crust than the rest of us combined, I think. I PLANNED to, but ended up pulling it from the menu due to lack of interest.

    payroll

    Another option - get (or upgrade) Quickbooks - and then use the built-in payroll function. I think it will calculate and document all the withholding for you - and generate files to give an accountant, and maybe even reports for IRS, etc. Cheaper than a monthly fee or an accountant doing it for...

    Business Growth Dilema

    Just a couple brainstorming thoughts (unfiltered, possibly stupid, but also possible they’ll make you think of something that will help - my definition of brain storming…) Get your own building. Gives you room to expand, and is a good long term investment. Import employees. Recruit as far away...

    Signs to promote us as "Fast Food"... need some id

    Re: Signs to promote us as “Fast Food”… need som You don’t want them to walk out - but you don’t want to stop them from walking in!! I understand the issue - and some of it is not preventable. It’s GOOD that people peek in to see what kind of place you are - and sometimes, it’s not what they...

    How Do I prepare for a 150 pizza order?

    Is that 2 decks, or two DOUBLE-decks… Just checking, in case it clears up the question of production.

    slow?????any1???????

    It likely depends on your location. Some towns, people GO TO for 3 day weekends. Some towns, people GET OUT of for 3 day weekends. Mine is the latter - so regular business is down. Fortunately, I had a couple special events booked for pizza (kids parties, runs to a big sports event, etc) so it’s...

    Even that varies by market. It can take 8 minutes to get three blocks in some downtown locations…

    Avg delivery radius

    You can’t go by a radius in many areas. You need to consider factors of geography and traffic and what your market looks like. If I go 2 miles West I cover 95% of the potential market before you hit wasteland. If I go 2 miles East, I leave a massive residential concentration just a few minutes...

    Two Domino's Employees Accused in Pizza Discount Scam!

    This is sillier than the problem you guys are discussing - in that the customer was charged full price. My people almost always quote the customer the price over the phone - and then would have a heck of a hard time either a) raising the price at the counter or the door when delivering or b)...

    new menu items

    Ahh. Memories of potatoes. I once had mild success selling potatoes when the BBQ place we opened around the corner from our WILDLY succesful by-the-slice pizza joint was a little slow. But we actually resorted to pulling people OUT OF LINE for pizza and talked them into trying a potato with a...

    How Do I prepare for a 150 pizza order?

    BAD MATH You probably (hopefully) meant a 7 minute COOK time. Here’s the math. Lets say the ovens DO cool down, and lets ADD time for cutting the done ones and loading the new ones. Give each 10-pizza batch about TEN minutes to be completed. You need to do Fifteen batches of 10 pizzas, right...
