    HELP Urbanspoon Rating Says My Employees Are Herion Addict Junkies

    I don’t believe Urban Spoon allows you to respond to reviews like Yelp and Google (don’t quote me on that) but I always like to respond to the customer reviews, usually something along these lines below. I always keep it positive and if I refute a claim the customer makes that is untrue, I...

    managing your store vs working a position

    Our situations sounds very similar Pizzanow! Working with a spouse, wanting to bank as much money as possible while we are young, having great employees that are occupied with classes during the day, finding that seldom does someone want to climb the ladder, etc. My goal all along was the same...

    Big Dave's Food Cost Pro

    I purchased the software several years back and after receiving it, the software was completely 100% unusable, as in I could not calculate one single menu item in it. This was after I spent a considerable amount of time inputting all of ingredients and prices into the system. I called Dave and...

    managing your store vs working a position

    I was happy to see this thread as my partner and I have been discussing the possibility of fully staffing our shop, in fact, I was just working out some numbers to see logistically how it would play out. We have been open 4 years and are looking at some other opportunities/streams of income that...

    What do you think of the new Tank?

    Cleaner look and easier to navigate! Maybe I’m just not seeing it but is there some sort of indicator as to what threads you have responded to?

    POS systems

    Another Point of Success fan here. You simply cannot beat the value! Are there some minor features I wish it had? Yes and by minor I mean really small things that would have been nice but I can certainly do without. Also, I use one of their dealers for menu programming and tech support and...

    Shelves on top of oven

    Hi all, It’s been awhile since coming around these parts 😛 I am racking my brain trying to come up with ideas for shelving for to-go orders that sits on top of our single conveyor oven. Originally I was thinking metro racks that are 2 shelves high (no more than 36" tall) but I like the idea of...

    Ovens

    Hi! I searched around the forum for some up to date info and did not seem to come across exactly what I needed. We currently have (2) gas Blodgett Master-Therm (MT-3255/3270) conveyor ovens and only one of them works at the moment. We have had technicians out numerous times for the one that...

    Where to buy "paid" stickers

    Not sure if it would work for whatever you are using them for but you can get a stamp that reads “PAID” at any office supply store and I’m sure it wouldn’t be any more expensive per stamp vs the sticker. Just a thought!

    Selling your pizza store: What is it worth?

    Thanks Bodega for taking the time to spread your knowledge! You probably remember one of my recent posts in which I was inquiring about ways to learn about business valuation in which you responded, so you can imagine my joy seeing this post from you 😃

    Cost of Wings

    Daisy, I would not stop serving split wings! Not only will your current customers expect the same wings they have always gotten from you, but almost all future customers will expect split wings when ordering. I know that the GFS Marketplace has raw, split, jumbo wings in a 40lb case for around...

    Business Valuation

    I have recently become very interested in learning more about business valuation and how say, business brokers help their clients determine at what price they should list their business for sale. I know there are occasional threads posted when someone is considering buying a business and whether...

    how much do you pay in credit card fees

    Something else worth mentioning. It is definitely worthwhile run a small comparison analysis between those companies charging a flat rate (such as 2%) and those offering the rate + a per swipe fee (such as 1.67% + $0.10 per swipe) for your particular business. We found that although the per...

    how much do you pay in credit card fees

    We pay 2% flat without ANY additional swipe fees, etc through Central Payment and our rep is great. We had our machine go down on a Saturday night and the next day, on Sunday afternoon, he was at the shop with a new machine for us. I have had quotes from Heartland and Mercury and none of them...

    Trademark

    I would highly recommend hiring an attorney to file your trademark, being able to file and doing it correctly are two totally different things. Although it seems straightforward, there are several different aspects to filing and it seems worthwhile to ensure you are protecting what is rightfully...

    Stirring the delivery debate...again...

    In my eyes, delivery is a service and adds value to your product since the customer does not have to spend any of their time to get their order. It is a convenience for them all while incurring costs on your end, why not recoup at least a portion of these costs? Just my 2 cents… 😃
