Hi afrancis and thanks for the question! As for the monetary savings, parents will definitely save as most places have fixed priced menu, but a regular purchased meal is usually required! In short, families can save money, but it will depend on the food provider. I understand your view on marked up prices, however, we'd work with fixed prices to reduce the markup or any predatory price hikes. Revenue/profit model we discussed can be: a. Charged partners a listing fee or percentage of total bill b. Charged families a monthly fee(subscription) c. Or charge families a one time fee to download

Hope this helps and feel free to continue our chat! Thanks ;)

Sorry, but I'm not interested! I was inputting some general ideas for you to use... Cheers
1% is a good start, but since it's still early, maybe you can negotiate a 2% for $125-$150... Doesn't hurt to try ;)
This is a cool and interesting idea! It's like a private community IPO, hopefully there won't be too much taxation involved!

Great questions and sometimes life just works out quirky, but here's my thoughts... 1. I do not enjoy anything! 2. I will not miss anything! 3. Pay is descent and benefits are great! 4. I would need to just go after my dreams and stop second guessing myself and my abilities!

Great topic!
