For what seems like the last few years, all we have been hearing about is the dismal economy. This is enough to make any business owner depressed. Needless to say, restaurateurs are not among the unaffected. However, while it may not currently feel like it, according to the National Restaurant Association, restaurants will be taking in almost 50% of the food dollar. That leaves a lot of money out on the table (pun intended). The looming question for restaurant owners is how to get a piece of that pie (pun not intended).

Many restaurants have found that using food runners increases profits by allowing servers to remain on the dining room floor to focus their efforts on customer service and sales. This plan seems to be quite lucrative, but only to the extent that orders are delivered to dining guests in a prompt manner. Implementing JTECH’s ServAlert® paging system with your food running staff will ensure that food arrives to guests promptly when it is ready. While it is always vital to retain customers, it is even more important during times when businesses are being forced to close their doors left and right. You have to provide the best possible experience to your paying patrons. And the paging system will allow you to do just that. Equipping your staff with the tools they need to succeed is half the battle. Food runners love the ServAlert system because it allows them to do their jobs to the best of their ability. And owners and managers like it because service is better, guests are happier and registers are ringing.
