I made my first order from Taradel last month. I can honestly say I had a good experience. My order was processed and delivered in a timely fashion. I talked with Chris over the phone in length about marketing ideas and found him to be very helpful. I’m courious to know how this turns out. If...

My most profitable shop was closed on Sunday. I opened it being closed on Sunday. My current shop is open 7 days. I would love to be closed a day but it isn’t realistic. It all depends on your area. Are you in a heavy competitive area? If so, it might hurt you. pt

I had a call off Wed,Thur and tonight. Work ethic is gone. Everyone wants as many hours possible as long as its around their personal schedule. When I make a dentist appointment, I schedule at a time and day I know I’m away from the shop. When a employee schedules a appointment, they schedule...

Do you have expirations on these coupons? The have found when you offer deals like this, it attracks the bottom feeders that are not loyal. They jump ship when the next deal comes by. Phase out like mentioned above and always have complimentary breadsticks or something business cards on you at...

If you could clone yourself, do you feel the two of you could set the world on fire in the pizza industry? I was thinking about this. I feel that employee work ethics have dropped to a all time low. It seems more people have their hands out than ever. If I was aligned with the same work ethic...

Wal Mart brings in the customers. Signage is the best. Stay away from flying the cars. Someone could say you broke their wipers, scratched the car and a host of other possibilities like mentioned above. Signage is the key. PMQ this month has a great article on signage,page 34 pt

I think pizza2007 hit it. If it only happens on a loaded pizza then it has to be the cook time. Try cooking the pizza with a couple toppings, pull out of oven half way done and top the other toppings. pt
