The biggest problem when running restaurants is staffing. The biggest. When owner fixes that (you have good chefs, waiters, bartenders, etc.) quality improves and customers just come back.

I know a few friends running and owning restaurants. Nobody would have time to work with anything related to sms marketing.

But let’s see if this will work: I saw a couple companies come and go doing this.

oh man yeah if we had a dollar for every time an owner passed on "more orders" because they didn't have the staff to handle more... we'd have another compelling revenue stream.

That's actually one of the value propositions: we know you don't have time so let us do it for you. Just sit back and see the results

> But let’s see if this will work

The famous first words. So far we've been pleasantly surprised to see it does. I guess we'll find out to what degree and how far we still have to "go"
