10 tips to boost your restaurant

  1. Golden rule: The customer is king. Even if a customer's complaint isn't always justified and you disagree, you need to manage the situation to satisfy the customer no matter what. But be careful, that doesn't mean accepting everything, of course.
  2. Must Have: Welcoming and smiling staff. Make sure each employee always reflects the best possible image of the establishment. This will foster better customer relations and loyalty.
  3. Good advertising. Popina gives you some communication tips on social media and the web for your establishment, you can use them for free!
  4. Update your menus. Vary the pleasures. Customers will tend to get bored if you always offer the same thing. Vary according to the seasons, events, or simply your desires, without straying too far from your basic concept and theme, of course.
  5. Have profitable promotions. Happy hours can be different from fixed-price menus, provided you have set your dinner prices well. (Often +25%).
  6. Think about expanding. This can be characterized by the development of takeaway sales. Today, with companies like Foodora, Stuart, Deliveroo, and Uber Eats, you have a new market of customers at your disposal, and it doesn't require more work or investment. This avenue is therefore interesting for increasing your customer base and turnover, without having to suffer the negative image that could be reflected there.
  7. A suitable and efficient point-of-sale system to allow you to manage everything related to your establishment. This simplifies the daily management of the restaurant, reduces the workload, and can improve your image. Adopting a touch screen cash register on iPad like Popina is adopting a suitable, efficient and innovative technological tool. All benefit!
  8. Make a report of your activity every week, in the following areas: Employees, stocks, figures, forecasts, attendance... this will allow you to assess your turnover in an optimal way and you will know better how to lead the way to be even more efficient at all levels.
    Keep an eye on your accounts. With the Popina touch screen cash register, managing your statistics is child's play and is done in a few clicks.
  9. Save money: Save money where it is possible to do so. You shouldn't skimp on the quality of your products or the materials you are going to offer to your customers. But avoid wasting water, food, and electricity. You will have a more ecological, more involved image and you will see the benefits in your wallet.
