1. Franchise or NOT!
Before you launch your restaurant, be sure to understand the pros and cons of the franchise model. For me, the only reason why I’d ever go with a franchise model is all wrapped into one word; Leverage.
Leverage is an essential part of business in the digital age. I would specifically want to leverage brand and marketing so I could focus on cooking the best dishes to serve customers. Operational systems is a plus.
2. Research your market
This is specifically about learning about the history of the restaurants in the local market especially those that have come and go. Restaurants come and go all the time. You need to know the market you want to target, it’s size and the competition.
3. Build follower-ship online
I can’t stress this enough. You need to have raving fans of your personal brand as a food expert before launching a restaurant. It’s part of marketing and it will reduce your marketing cost a great deal. Publish content related to content of food, cooking, recipes and more.
4. Become the tourist spot
When you create online content such as foodie pictures, memes, cooking videos, commentaries on food and cooking shows for the internet, your audience is now global. There will be people online who follow you and plan to visit when they come to town. Let’s face it, you local market are not going to eat out often enough to keep you in business.
5. Birthdays & Anniversary
Build a database of name, email, birthdays and anniversary. Send out coupons at about a month or less from this special dates to fill your seats.
6. Google maps, local listings and yelp
7. On-site Incentivized Reviews
8. Incentivized Referral – Make people refer others by offering coupons
9. Active and dynamic online presence – Make online content creation a active, perpetual and on-going part of your operation.
10. Make WiFi available to guests – The longer butts are in your seats at any point in time, the more restaurant will bring in.
11. Multiple Streams of Income – Don’t get attached to your specialty menu. Attachments are great way to be out of business prematurely. Have other generic food and meal available on your menu for safe eater.
12. Identify your PPP & CCC in a written form and in your plan. PPP stands for people, product and process. CCC stands for create, capture and convert. Avoiding this step is a deadly thing to do.
