Hello ALL,
First off, sorry if my title of this post offended anyone, but after 5 months of construction and loads of money, I was finally able to open my doors today. It’s after midnight and Im tired, but I felt obligated to tell you all that my first day was a pretty big success in my book.
I did not do any advertising or deliveries…the only advertising I did was have my sister send a text message to her friends…and yes she has ALOT of friends (she’s a hair dresser :-). Anyways, i got hit pretty good at lunch, but when 5:00 came around I had to bend over and kiss my arse good bye…I have seating for 70-80…we were packed from 6 to 830…Sold somehwere around 90 pizzas plus a few sandwiches, spaghetti, meatballs, etc…
We had a few mess ups, (about 3-4), but for the amount of people we were serving, we did pretty good. I was prepared with plenty of help, although my POS system and credit card machine were down…Yes I know, I have to get them up and running ASAP…
Anyways all said and done, somwhere around 2k gross…I think it was a pretty good day. Thanks to all of you for all your help and advice.
Not such a Rookie Pizza Guy anymore…hahahaha
