    fountain soda machine

    This is absurd. Either call Pepsi or go up the chain of command at Coke. I would not do it yourself because you would also have to repair it. It is absolutely an effort to keep you stuck buying 20 oz’s. How many cases do you go thru a week of 20’s and 2 liters? Jim

    VCM Question

    All I have ever used is 60 qt. Hobart mixers. I was wondering about switching to a VCM machine for dough and cheese. I see they make batches much faster. Could I expect the dough to come out the same? Also in regards to the cheese is it more diced than shredded? Any info including make & model...

    I was already on Facebook personally. I just set the page up and a few friends, family and employees added it and it has gone from there. It is now being advertised on our menu and website. Jim

    Facebook

    I am using Facebook. I am not a fan of Twitter. We have almost 200 Fans on our Facebook page. I want to get it up to 1000 or more. I just started running little contests with the winner getting a gift card. I am trying to use it to interact with customers as well as offer specials and such. We...

    Oven HELP?

    I do not know anyone who sells 150 pizzas at any hour, let alone 300. I did 1.3 million in sales last year from 1 store (all take out, about 50 percent pizza) and would never come close to that. How many pizzas could a 32 in wide 40 inch chamber do in 1 hour? Also how long from start to finish? Jim

    Oven HELP?

    I have always used decks. I am going to be opening up a new store and would like to possibly use conveyors. Is there any one that is better as far as getting a pizza that I would expect from a deck. Should I buy used or new and how much can I expect to pay. Traditionally I would by only used on...

    To serve fountain drinks or bottled drinks?

    Wiseguy, I do all takeout but have the fountain just cause I have so many employees. We actually sell a decent amount too. We also do 20 oz. and 2 liters too. The kids will make any pop profits disappear FAST when they don’t pay for 20 oz. drinks. As far as equipment goes as far as I know there...

    vehicle vinyl

    Best advertising money I ever spent. EASILY. $1700 on the first one and $2500 on the second(more coverage). Make sure to get a reputable company to do it. You want it to last. Most people advertise that they do this and then they sub it out. Deal with the people who are making the graphics and...

    Assistant Mangers and Shift Leaders

    j_r0kk, What is your minimum wage there? The fed is talking about raising it above our minimum here in New York, which is $7.15. I would imagine that would cause BIG problems for someone like you. Obviously I start at $7.15 and my top guys (food makers) that have been there for 4-5 years and...

    Warning!!! pepsi may be trying to screw us!

    I have had a very good relationship with Pepsi for a few years now. I am not sure who pays $14 for a case of water (i’m at $8.99) and I can’t imagine how Crystal Geyser would outsell Auqafina. Also, I know what the contracts say but I have never had a problem putting other items in our cooler...

    Favorite coupons?

    mm, I see you use Firefly. I would love to know how your experience with them has been. If you want you can email me at [email protected]. As far as coupons go I like ones that advertise “FREE”. I like to give free food items as opposed to dollars off. Also, I try to get these in the hands of...
