You put in your best effort to provide your customers with a great selection at a great value. You stop by your local corporate chain restaurant to celebrate a job well done and can’t help but to look at their liquor list to compare prices.

Does your restaurant have a pizza ordering system? If not, it might be time to rethink your digital strategy. After all, 43% of pizza customers want their local pizzerias to use online ordering technology , and more and more eateries are adapting to meet this demand. . Rather than giving up a huge slice of profits (and restaurant data ) to third-party delivery apps, many pizzerias are opting to get their own online ordering systems to take unlimited orders on their own terms.

What do you think about when you enter a coffee shop? Do you have to consider whether you can easily move around the space? Perhaps you’re entering as a potential employee with your CV in hand. Do you have to consider whether you’ll be discriminated against because of an impairment? For many people, these questions wouldn’t occur. But for people with disabilities and impairments, they are a part of everyday life.

We all have the technology to limit double data entry, so why not use it? Would you prefer to enter the same data once or twice? I think we can all agree that once is the only correct answer. Not only does this save keystrokes (and thus time) it limits the potential for human error. However, data gets entered twice at restaurants all the time, particularly by operators performing critical back office functions like inventory counting and reconciling.

Cell phones and social media have quite a hold on us. Don’t think so? One survey found that the average adult now spends almost 2.5 hours every day on social media. We’re literally on our phones morning, noon, and night checking out what’s going on in everyone else’s life. It is little wonder that this has become the primary place where people look to form their opinions about businesses, including where they will take their car to be serviced.

Communicating in person. One of the biggest mistakes a food establishment can make is not investing enough time and resources into training staff on how to speak to customers. Believe us when we say it’s easier said than done. From the minute a guest walks into your cafe or restaurant, everything about the way they are greeted, served and cared for, directly affects their impression of you – and therefore whether they’ll return.

In response I mentioned a number of sources, which works as an introduction to what the teas are.

I was once on a wine trip to Portugal when one of my fellow writers said, “Right now, I would just like something that tastes rustic.” I know what she means. Most winemakers understandably want to get rid of any rough edges their wines might have, especially if any of those could be considered a “flaw” on a judge’s score sheet.
