Just a couple simple comments DO ANYTHING POSSIBLE TO INCREASE SPEED. The system seems a tiny bit slower with the new template. I know that’s odd, but perhaps it’s how it loads the graphics or something. Function over form, please. If it’s lean and fast, we’ll all be happier than sitting...

Sometimes a vendor just deserves a back-pat. My POS starts totally locking up - OF COURSE during a massive rush - a fundraiser night actually, with a group that’s pretty much all NEW customers for us. I’d sort of accidentally dropped my ongoing service coverage, and I’ve been a “charge per...

Wasn’t open last year for it - do people get pizza 'cause they’re too busy with costumes to cook a dinner?

OK, what do you use as the sauce if you make one? a) A thickened buffalo sauce b) A ranch or blue cheesy sauce c) No sauce d) Regular red pizza sauce Just wondering, before I begin test-cookin’

Maybe my “subject” kept me from replies - asked this earlier too: I am becoming convinced that my town is absurdly resistant to advertising, but I’m looking for something more to gauge against. Please help me out with a rough estimate if you can - what response rates do you get to doorhanging...

I am becoming convinced that my town is absurdly resistant to print advertising, but I’m looking for something more to gauge against. Please help me out with a rough estimate if you can - what response rates do you get to doorhanging? Same day kick (number of orders) Follow-on results (maybe...

Isn’t someone here from Gainesville, FL? If so - this looks like an opp. to make some new friends and get some free press… http://www.gainesville.com/article/2007 … 06/-1/news

Interested please in BOTH a) recipes (for the pesto itself, I’ve got topping plans) AND b) Any pre-made packaged brand pesto Thanks…

Odd question, but does anyone have a vendor that will sell boxes direct in low quantity? This is just a fill-in order - my distributor screwed up and is out of what I use. It’s a very standard box that anyone SHOULD have in stock - no art or anything. I’m just looking to order a few cases, and...

I’d like SOMETHING cold and quick for summer. Anyone have a suggestion considering a) Cheap (or free from a product vendor) equipment b) Simple maintenance and production I’m open to shakes, soft-serve ice cream, frozen yogurt, slushies, frozen ice, you name it! MM

I guess I mixed up Yellow Pages with Yellow Book! What I’m wondering is what the impact will be of a Yellow Pages print ad - I missed their deadline before opening. Actually THEY failed to reply to several calls asking for a rep, but anyway… Anyone track their Yellow Pages calls? Or have a...

Those of you who do a “school night” - what % do you give a back to the school?? Thanks!

Agreeing to do a fundraiser night for a good local group. I am looking for interesting different ways to define the contribution they’ll get. Last time they did something with another restaurant, they got something like 50% of all sales above the average for that night of the week. This seems...

Looking for ideas… Free Green Toppings? Corned Beef and Cabbage Pizza? (kidding)

Anyone have a reasonably priced give-away (branded) plastic spatula or serving utensil? We make some pies that really could use one, but are mostly a take-out kind of place. I’d like to give something away with those pizza’s, but don’t want to spend a fortune on the item either…

Anyone know of a Gift Card program or vendor they’d recommend? I’d like something I can use (swipe) with my POS, but the only one they pointed me to had an initial cost that was more than I can handle sinking into right now.

I’m looking for ideas - What were your best response creative coupon offers? So far, mine has been a “FREE UPSIZE” - pay for a large but get an extra-large… Thanks!

(just time of day - not closing for good!!) I’ve been open under 2 months. I seem to be working towards the lunch I hoped for, and my dinner/delivery is growing. But by 8:00 PM, it’s like someone flipped a switch. I keep advertising delivery and later hours, but keep sending people home early...

I was a little bummed today, having a SLOW lunch (at least it’s starting slow - we’ll catch up). But THEN, I hit the posts recommending dancing, and growing a moustache, and buying folded boxes. Now I’m going back to the kitchen still chuckling.

OK, so I never did a “Grand Opening”. I just opened as soon as training the crew seemed mostly done… It’s been over a month now I’ve got a great-looking ad in the local paper - slightly different once a week. And I get great feedback on the ad itself - big and color and there is some response...
