Found another company adding my info to their site. I’ve attached a screenshot of this. I am unable to edit it in my profile. I talked Google and they said that I would have to contact Slice. They said that when Google crawls if they find something it will automatically add it. I would have to contact Slice, ask them to remove my info from their website and when Google crawls it again it will be removed.
When I spoke to Slice to have my info removed they voluntarily said the reason is because one of their customers requested to have my place listed on their site and without me even mentioning the link on Google they went ahead to inform me that the link should be removed in 7 days. It just seems like they new exactly what questions I was going to have and have trained everyone on what to say.
We need to put a stop to all these 3rd party ordering platforms! They need to remember that without us there is no them. Charging ridiculous commissions and steeling our customers. We get nothing in return. By the time we are done with an order we’ve broken even or loss money. They might work great if you don’t have a delivery option yourself but if you already offer all the services there is no need for them.
I am a victim of this myself. I signed up to GrubHub about 2 years ago. It was great in the beginning. I was noticing all these new orders and my sales were increasing. Until I looked deeper into it. They put up Google Ads to rank 1st when I was searched, purchased domain names with my name in it, added their order links to my Google profile page, TripAdvisor page and Facebook page. I’ve managed to remove everything but the TripAdvisor link. When all was said and done I was losing customers and gaining more expenses.
I have put a plan in place to remove myself from GrubHub and have noticed a great decrease in GrubHub orders, an increase in my personal online ordering platform, an increase in sales and a decrease in costs.
I want to start a movement of individuals like me who feel the same way. People that are willing to remove themselves from all these 3rd party platforms and do it on there own. We would show them how to slowly remove themselves from these sites without hurting their sales, show them where they can find resources like this site and help with getting there own online ordering set up and delivery set up. I was wondering how many of you would be interested in this? Would anyone want to help me with it? I know it might sound like an impossible task but I want to give it a go. Anyone with me?
