    what type of marketing?

    I’d like to do both. I have an e-mail data base but I’m looking to do more. Do I want to invest in a Twitter account, how do I get my blog out there to more than just my current customers, do I want to start internet ordering…that type. Any info will help. Thanks

    Other than Facebook, e-mail and the traditional types, I’m wondering what else do you folks use and do they work? Twitter, linkedin, blogs etc. Curious as I’m looking to get with this social networking thing! Thanks…

    Can folks tell from the road you sell pizza?

    We live in a town that doesn’t allow a-frame signs because they don’t want to diminish he homey feeling of the street and block the walkway. We are fortunate enough to be on the end of a small strip mall and we can be seen from the corner of Main Street. We have decided to park our truck in the...

    help us name this pizza, please

    We’ve created a pizza that has Bacon, Mushrooms, Artichoke Hearts and diced tomatoes on a garlic ranch sauce. It’s on a thin crust and is sprinkled with Parmesan cheese and our house blend of spices. Of course it comes with Mozzarella Cheese. Here’s the kicker… We don’t have a name for it. We’ve...

    removing 2 sizes

    Hello. Was wondering what your thoughts are on this. We have the following pizza sizes - 10,12,14,16 and 18 inch. We have had them since we opened 3 years ago. We’re thinkiing about taking off the 10’s and 18’s from the menus as they don’t seem profitable. We will still make 18’s as we use them...

    BBQ Take n Bakes

    Hi. I was watching a show on food network that was discussing Take n Bake pizzas (Papa Murphys). At the end of the segment, they said you could even bake it on your grill but didn’t give out much info (time, temp, etc). Was wondering if any T&B people know of this and have suggested it to your...

    cooking with fresh basil

    Okay, I guess I should have been a little more specific. If I wanted to add it as a topping (ie. a Margahrita Pizza), when would I add it. I already have basil in my sauce and dried as a shaker topping. Not used to using fresh on top of the pizza itself. Thanks.

    cooking with fresh basil

    Hi. We’re thinking about adding fresh basil to our items. Want to know if it’s better to put it on in the beginning, in the middle or after it’s done. Any advice is helpful. Thanks

    discounts on large orders?

    Why do you offer different discounts at different times? Is it the amount of pizzas they order or the time of day? bodegahwy: Does the person that gets the lesser discount know that another group is getting a better deal? Is is a percentage of the total amount or a dollar amount?

    discounts on large orders?

    Hi. I was wondering what your policies are about people who order 5+, 10+ pizzas. Do you give them a discount automatically or when they ask or not at all? What if they are repeat customers and it would be a monthly standing order? If it’s a school? If it is a non profit? Thanks for your input.

NO MATTER WHAT!! Now a days, nobody eats together. Thank goodness for the family values my parents taught me and I...

    Say Goodbye to School Pizza Days!!!

    Our pizza shop is across the street from a high school. We sell 20 XXLG each day for slices! I’m wondering if they can tell the kids not to go to certain businesses on their own time! How hard it is to be a kid/parent/business today! It makes me want to puke!

    selling the business questions

    Okay - we don’t own the property, we are renting the space. Our lease is up at the end of this year with a 5 year extension. So, I guess we are selling the lease and the equiptment since we don’t want to “give/sell” him the recipes. Thanks for your input.

    Hi. We are selling one of our businesses and I have a few questions. Our first location is for sale and our second location is 20 miles away with a different name. Long story, but the city of the second location doesn’t allow “chain” businesses and since this was our second store, we had to...

Looked on their web site. Interesting. Franchise. Interesting statement - we’re directly across the street...
