    terms for investors

    A business is only worth what a buyer will pay for it. That will depend on thier resources, economic conditions, the condition of business assets and (to a degree) you willingness to hold paper on the sale. If you take their money and promise them .25 per pizza, what will happen if you hit a...

    HELP...."Crushed" Sauce Cans from ESCALON

    My understanding is that if the damage is an actual dent that creases the can there is a potential hazard to the interior liner coating and the product could be affected in terms of taste… or perhaps worse. If the can is only slightly “bowed” inward but not crease dented, we sometimes go with...

    HELP...."Crushed" Sauce Cans from ESCALON

    For three months I have been getting about 5-10% of my deliveries from Escalon in cans that are badly dented and some have been literally crushed. I brought in my supplier (Sysco) to see it and photograh the cans. They feel it’s happening during processing/canning. Meanwhile, the folks at...

    MANAGING PARTNER CONCEPT / PAY SCALE....????

    I have my eye on semi-retirement. With that in mind, I’m planning on hiring a managing partner to run my independent Pizza Parlor. My thought is to bring in someone at about 40K salary and “credit” them with another 15k or so a year for 8 years. The earned credit would go toward the incremental...

    Delivery Driver Pay

    I forgot to add… We have customers who are “out of area” and offer to pay us double the delivery fee to deliver. If you have the product and service, you can always operate on your own terms!

    Delivery Driver Pay

    I do very little one way or another “because of what my competitors do”. My drivers get the whole delivery fee to help them offset gas expenses and the RIGHT TYPE Of DELIVERY INSURANCE to covers our butts “just in case”. It’s not cheap.

    Beer & Wine?

    I think you have to offer it and I honestsly can’t think of a reason why you wouldn’t. If you don’t sell beer/wine with Pizza, it’s kind of like Dunkin Donuts having no cream on hand. Besides, I have to believe your customers would just go to someone who does offer it.

    Smoking Policy

    Try This… Smoking is not permitted inside the building by patrons or employees at any time. Employees who smoke may “clock out” for 10 minute outdoor smoke breaks in the designated area when approved by the on duty manager. You might as well make it reduce payroll during down time!
