and Profitable Coupons in the Restaurant Industry
One of the greatest pleasures in life is dining out at a great restaurant. One of the most painful moments is seeing a restaurant with empty tables. Coupon sites like Groupon are a great way to fill tables and bring new customers - but it comes at a price… Here are some tips to help you use coupons in the best, most profitable way for your restaurant.
Toppings, Sides & Drinks - One of the most profitable ways to increase check size or profit per order and one of the best ways to bring people in is instead of just giving a “percentage off” discount, give a discounted or free topping, side or drink. This will encourage people to not only come in more, but to add more extras. Since usually the extras have higher profit margins, you keep from losing money. For example:
topping on your pizza
30% off fries
with every lunch special
Finish on a Good Note - A nice way to increase loyalty and to get people to return is to leave them with a good feeling at the end of the meal. For example:
when buying 2 entrees
2 espressos for free
with your dessert order
Second, Third, Fourth - The ever popular classic that never fails!
get a third 30% off
get fourth 50% off
get third 25% off
Buy More for Less When… - This is the go-to coupon when you don’t have a more creative idea:
get $40 to spend when buying
at least 3 sushi rolls
