Looking for ways to increase sales in your restaurant? Whether you’ve had a successful opening or sales are in a slump, read on to learn how to keep customers coming through the door.
Listen to feedback, from both customers and employees. Don’t forget to reward your team now that you are up and running. Happy employees will create a great dining experience for your guests. Do people keep coming back for a particular menu item? Is there one item that just doesn’t sell? Tweaking your menu after opening to reflect the trends you see is a great way to get customers coming back. Remember to keep an eye on your expenses including food waste. Consider a new project that may help curb some of that waste, as well as being innovative – like an on-site restaurant garden.
Improving your bar selections can be an easy way to increase sales as well. One such great trend is wine on tap. Wine kegs, though $800 per tap system up front, can save tons of money in the long run when you consider how much wine goes opened but is not drunk. You can also offer a lower price point so you sell more glasses! Consider wine on tap for your restaurant!
