So a fellow business owner who i know really well was giving me some constrcutive critisism and i wanted more thoughts.
My new pizza place which has been open 6 months is going great, doing about 40k a month or so. 80% delco and 20% dine-in. We do not have a wait staff and we use paper plates and forks etc, mainly cause its easy and cheap and quick and we are not a full service place.
just order at the counter and we bring the food down to the customer.
My friend was saying that we are loosing out on alot of business since we dont offer real plates and cups and forks etc
I dont want to turn into a full service place, i did that for 3 years and its not my thing, i feel that going to real plates and forks etc, is just a gateway to full service, then they will want a host or waiter and then coffee and the ice cream and cheese cake etc etc etc
Just looking for thoughts on how big of a deal this really is and if i should consider rethinking my ways
here are some pics so you get an idea of the place
