Hey there 👋🏻 and welcome to the October edition of our monthly newsletter. Each month we bring you information on what's happening within the restaurant and delivery tech space, make some recommendations that can help to make your restaurant more profitable, and highlight some of the restaurant marketing campaigns that made us hungry for more throughout the month 🤤
We're coming out of spooky szn 👻 and although we're not in the business of scaring restaurants, choosing the wrong fleet for your delivery operations can have some frightening consequences 💸
That's why this month we're offering insights on choosing the best fleet for your restaurant alongside sharing some useful tips on how to handle delivery fees with our recent webinar with Curbivore.
We'll also touch on a new partner announcement and some marketing campaigns from restaurants that left us cackling in October 🧙
Let's skip the trick and dive straight into the treat 👇
CHOOSING THE BEST DELIVERY FLEET FOR YOUR RESTAURANT 🚗
There are many decisions you have to make as a restaurant business owner: the location of your restaurant, how to design your interior, developing your menu, and how you’ll go about hiring your staff.
And it doesn’t stop there!
One decision restaurant owners now must make: which delivery service is best for my restaurant? 🤔
There are a TON of delivery service providers for restaurants to choose from, and there is not necessarily one overall best choice.
It often depends on your restaurant’s business model, locations, size, volume of orders, and the availability of delivery drivers in the area.
If you're feeling a little overwhelmed and are unsure which delivery provider is best for your restaurant, take a read through our latest blog post where we share the essential tips and strategies for selecting the perfect delivery fleet for your restaurant!
