Joker, A little off subject here, but who do you use for printing. I am in WA like you and have yet to find a “west coast” printer with what I consider to be fair prices.

Great answer weds2800. The only thing I would add is that I do not have a “zero” sales receipt. I first record my income as Net Sales on line 1 and then record my payment items (cc, gift cert, online pmts etc.) on the following lines which results in a sales receipt that now has a balance of...

Is there a pos? If so, I would be sure to mail the existing database.

We have been in business for 16 years in the same location and besides some fresh paint here and there have done nothing to upgrade our “decor”. As you can imagine the shop looks tired and somewhat “dirty”. The time has come to do what I would consider some major rennovations and updating. My...

Can you post a pic of the brown spots your talking about. Having a visual could help in getting some better advice.

I like the updated website…did you do that yourself? How about your online ordering…who do you use for that?

Nice! What’s the envelope look like that you are mailing them in?

I too am with Mercury and got dinged a $165 security fee which they are refusing to give a credit for…btw last year the fee was $150 which I was told was a one time only fee relating to PCI compliance… WHATEVER! The time has now come that I will be switching processors. However, I am a Point of...

Very risky move on his part as corporate Valpak could easily sign an agreement with one of the national or regional chains to advertise in your particular zone. If they do, his office has to accept and place the piece in “your” envelope…good for you if this happens as you will get yours for free.

smeagol8: Never have, never will what?

Registered Guest: I actually worked as a Valpak rep a few years back and can confirm they will not offer exclusivity in any category…especially pizza. Most offices accross the country are franchises and their franchise agreements prohibit them from doing so. Each office does control the...

You can do the same thing they do yourself and save about .10 per piece…check out the every door direct mail program at usps.com.

knightwing1995: Delco knightwing1995: Mainly pizza cooked in a conveyor plus side items like chicken wings, breadsticks, salds etc…all-in-all a pretty simple menu.

We have 790 sqft…a little on the tight side but has worked out fine for 15yrs. Plus, the smaller space means lower rent.

I have a college buddy of mine that works at Papa Murphy’s corporate offices and he says that many of their locations are 50% or more EBT. The ones that are located in lower income areas would, according to him, never survive if they didn’t accept EBT…but yet, many of these locations are their...

Any idea what the shelf life of cheese is? How long can it be held in cold storage before you have to worry about the effects on performance, taste, etc.?

You’re considering only pizzas which will have a lower food cost than wings. 20% seems in-line for a pizza, when combined with the higher food cost % of wings, soda etc. Your overall percentage will be in the 30-35% range.

Rockstar pizza: yes…reverse the wires on the conveyor motor.

Rockstar pizza: Rockstar…correct me if I am wrong, but I believe you are handling the mailing yourself using the EDDM program at the post office. I was wondering who you are using for the design and printing?

A few years back I downloaded a break even analysis excel file from the manager’s tool box section. As luck has it, I had to do fresh re-install of my computer and thus lost the file and it so happens it is no longer in the tool box section. Does anyone have any idea if it got moved to a...
