    Vacations (or lack thereof)?

    We’re still in our first year and no vacations planned or taken so far. My wife and I are going to take a day trip later this month. I’m confident that my staff can handle one day without me and still put out a good product. I’ll come in early the next day and do the closing reports so they’ll...

    Is there a maximum number of “Likes” you can have in one day on Urban Spoon? I was up to 27 votes yesterday and it went down to 18 today. I wonder if its like Yelp’s wonderful filter. Fireside, don’t forget your link so we can Like yours.

    Marinades for chicken?

    NicksPizza: Wow Nick, Are you sure you aren’t Alton Brown in disguise? I’ll second the motion for brining though. Its been known to create the best Thanksgiving turkeys ever cooked. IMHO. But the turkey needs to be brined over night.

    Path To New Restaurant

    If you take down that Jayhawk flag, sales will increase 40%. I could be biased from being a K-State alum though. 😃

    EBT

    Not sure on the steps to take for set-up, but there’s a franchise around here called Figaro’s. They advertise their take and bake price and then charge $1 to bake it. So if you buy a $10 pizza off their menu, $10 will be charged to the EBT card and $1 will need to come from the customer if you...

    What is with people applying for jobs?(RANT ALERT)

    About a month ago, I had a high school kid come in with 0 work experience.(that’s fine, I can teach you how to assemble a pizza) He’s entering his senior year and just wants to pick up a few shifts each week. His application didn’t wow me at all because he didn’t say anything or sell himself at...

    Finally Getting POS

    We finally hooked up a single station last weekend and are transitioning from pen/paper/ and cash register to the world of POS. It has been pretty interesting these last few days and I’m spending entirely too much time right now looking at reports of information that I never had before. We...

    Margarita Pizzas?

    NicksPizza: We just use our standard mozzarella that we use on all our pizzas. The parm is shredded. I usually recommend that that customers get it on our thin crust as opposed to our regular. In the Portland meto area, our pizza is pretty similar to what people think of when they think...

    Margarita Pizzas?

    It is one of our best selling (and most profitable) pizzas but we don’t have a lot of other meatless options on our menu. We use a garlic and olive oil base and place the basil under the cheese. We then top with sliced tomatoes and cook it. A few minutes before it is done, we will add a sprinkle...

    References for sales increase due to FREE DELIVERY

    PPG2270: I don’t want to get into too many of my accounting practices, but until I get my POS hooked up, this is incorrect. *edited due to coming to my senses and not opening my books to a public forum.

    References for sales increase due to FREE DELIVERY

    Just for fun, I asked my drivers how they felt about “Free Delivery.” They were all against it and were almost upset at me for considering it. In my store, they get the state minimum (8.50 plus 1.50 of every 2.00 delivery fee.) They also get to keep their tips. Average tip is a around 3.00. My...

    What does a printed pizza box cost ?

    useful information, thank you. One thing that I have seen is buying non printed boxes and throwing your label (with adhesive backing) onto the box. Anyone know how much cheaper this method is? Bill For the small volume I do, box toppers are the only way to go. http://www.centuryprinting.com...

    coupons

    butlermarie38: I’m just curious, how do you advertise and sell this? Do you say “Buy our coupon page for $100 and get $200 worth of savings” or something along those lines?

    Return Customer Marketing

    Daddio: I somehow knew this was going to be one of the first responses. I’m working on it and hope to have Point of Success hooked up by the end of July. Thank you for the key words too. I found that using the advance search and looking for titles only helped me sort through the information a...

    Return Customer Marketing

    I’m sure that this has been discussed to death but I haven’t been able to find anything when using the search function. (I find plenty of other useful info that keeps me occupied for hours though.) Anyway, my DELCO pizza shop just opened about 6 months ago in suburban Portland OR. We need...
