Do These Things And Watch Your Restaurant Grow.

Running a business is a tough job. It involves a lot of moving part all at once without missing out on any but running a restaurant is what I will call, be profitable or go home. It’s for the strong at heart and the brave. Kudos to every restaurateur out there.

The news of restaurant closing down here and there is all over the country is alarming. According to one of the owners of The Makers Clementine Fine Food, who said, ‘’The restaurant business is the toughest business ever. It’s really, really hard. There are just so many moving parts, and we’re working so many hours.’’ That is true, restaurant business goes beyond having nice grilled ribs or the best taco in town, you must be able to attract cash to your business.

To successful do this, you must turn to your customers. They are your biggest investor. Every single person that walks through your door or in other ways possible gives you money in exchange for your food, that is the person or persons who want to be in a good relationship with. The fountain is knowing what your customers want and here we will share few tip to help you achieve that.

Ask Questions

The ability to make your customers feel as part of your business is key. Do you wonder at how much big corporations spend to achieve this? asking their customers series of questions about their product and services. You must be able to do the same, train your servers and other employees to ask questions. Are you visiting or live in the neighborhood? Do you like the food? Did we meet your expectations? What can we improve? These are simple yet powerful questions that point you to a better direction for your business. This is not just a one-time process, it’s a constant process on a daily basis. Some answers will be harsh, some will be great and others might just not give a hoot about it.

Make Changes:

Don’t be a hearer only but a doer. You must put to work every reasonable suggestion your customer recommends. Yes, you can not satisfy everyone but you must listen not to reply but to understand your customers then make your business judgment. This is the part where people fail most, the doing part. Everybody has an idea but the execution part is non-existence. As an entrepreneur, you must build it into your process, system, make it a culture for the company and let employees follow it.

Get A Delivery Service:

You cook good food, fine, but how far has that gotten you? Customers and I will say human beings tend towards convenience over inconvenience. We want to be pampered and one way of being pampered is the ability to have our meal delivered to us wherever, for me, on my couch. With the rate at which technology is advancing, it is wisdom to get on board and take advantage of what it has to offer. According to Smart Insight, 80% of internet owners use a smartphone. What this means for restaurant owners is a vast pool of opportunities to bring their good food to mobile users and leverage on the internet. There are many delivery tech companies out there that can work with you on fair terms. Find one of them and partner with them. The mobile world is taking over and it’s important you join the movement. FoodZips is the company I founded and we will glad to partner with you. Save all those hiring costs, with FoodZips, you are well served so also are your customers.

Let Your Free Be Free:

I’m sure you must have heard the saying that nothing is free in America. Well, people are very skeptical of the word when used by merchants like a restaurant. It is your job to convince them that your free means free. This allows your customers to build confidence in you while you gain their trust.

I wish you the best.
