thanks guys! the pump is a great idea. And never thought of the inconvenience of having to pour the sauce onto the food instead of dipping.

We go through about 300-400 a day. The menu items take a while to make as is. We’ve been looking for the past couple of weeks but to no avail. We found something similar at Restaurant Depot but it was a little much for what we need and pricey. And our supplier doesn’t carry anything of this sort.

A couple of our menu items require a marinara sauce dip. We now have to individually pour the sauce from a large can into individual 1 oz containers. This is obviously labor intensive. Do you guys know of a vendor or a place where can order individually packed 1 oz. marinara sauce (similar to...

thanks guys for all the great suggestions. I never thought of approaching organizations for fundraiser. What a great idea!!! The current quotes from the third party companies we’re looking at are 5,000 @ $135.00 per thousand = $675.00 & 10,000 @ $79.50 per thousand = $795.00. From having done...

hi again pizza makers… All of your replies on my last post truly ignited our focus on marketing. Thank you! We’re thinking of using a third party to do our Door Hanging as it will be on a consistent basis. Do you guys know of such companies that provide this kind of service? How much would it...

we also thought of adding a DVD kiosk as well. however, after simple mathematics it just wasn’t worth it. It’s more than just having a machine in or outside the store you actually have to be maintain it w/ new release DVDs every tuesday which can be expensive since you have to purchase multiple...

thanks! would a cardboard type box be good enough? corrugated tend to be more expensive.

thanks guys! These are great feedback for a newbie like ourselves! We do have a POS system and use it to send postcards, direct mail. It gave us a decent return as it was Buy One Get One Free. We’re working on something that will be more personalized, such as hand written. We obviously don’t...

We do. We did heavy marketing, direct mail on the first 3 months but did very minimal marketing beginning of this year to around March. We just did another direct mail end of last month which gave us a good return but still not as good as the first months. There’s about 5 other pizza places in...

In this tough economy I’m curious to find out everyone’s foot traffic Mon-Thurs and Fri-Sun. We’re certainly seeing the numbers declining. We’ve only been open for a little over 6 months but our sales on the first three months were a lot stronger in the beginning than now. What do you guys think...

I’m a believer that consumers are pretty much fed-up w/ yet another advertising especially if it’s about a product that’s completely unrelated to what they just paid for. I agree with co-ops and special community events. But outright just selling another product …not too sure.

thanks all! We actually thought of stickers but it’s looking like we might have a vendor that can print it directly on the box.

We’re seeking vendors who can give us a great deal on large quantities of 7" Personal Pizza Box, w/ our 4- color Logo on it. Do you guys have any recommendations? The design will not fill the entire box. We’re thinking of just a plain white box, w/ our 3" Circle logo in the middle. Thanks in...

Thanks Tom for the great feedback!! So you’re suggesting to avoid the tin foil. And any paper material container would work best since it absorbs moisture? We’re currently using the generic star pizza box that they sell at Restaurant Depot but we’re looking for a cheaper alternative that will...

We want to switch to the round 8" Tin Foil Containers w/ card boad lid for our personal size pizzas. This is 50% cheaper than the boxes. Does anyone have experience in doing this? Does it keep the pizzas warm and not soggy? We’re also delivering these personal pizzas on a 10-20 min drive from...
