How can I increase restaurant sales?

Answer by  Dana46 (2345)

You have to get the word out. So many restaurants fail because people don't know about them. Whatever you can do to get your name out there, visit local businesses with coupons, donate a couple free meals to charity auctions, etc. Also, make sure to give them a reason to come back, besides the great food.

Advertise that you will seat large groups without an extra 15-25% gratuity to bring in large groups. Advertise that you handle large groups at public meeting places, such as library conference rooms or student union buildings to encourage these groups to come to your place to eat.

Consider putting out coupons in the newspaper or Valpac. Everybody loves a bargain, and most people will go to a place if their are good coupons available to give a good discount. You could also consider setting up an all you can eat buffet. I know this from working in the restaraunt business for several years.

Watch Hell's Kitchen!! Marketing is important, as is good, fresh food and excellent service. Improve the atmosphere of your restaurant--update it on a regular basis. Simplify the menu with fresh, not frozen food.

Send out PERSONAL sales letters to everyone within a 1 mile radius of your restaurant. DONT use your logo, make them personal. The templates I used can be found at richrestaurantsystem dot com This type of marketing consistantly brought in 6k-8k in sales on every mailing I did.
