Ways To Have The Third
Party Delivery Work For You
1. Set the schedule on your Limited-Time Menu offerings to guarantee that your offer is prioritized at the top
of the daily queue. Caviar Food Delivery & Takeout does this well.
2. Free Delivery - Another way to get your restaurant at the top of the queue is to set a block of time each
week for free food deliveries. App settings will reset every month, so mark your calendar to do this each
month.
3. Use Google Cloud platforms like Google My Business to direct customers to your website, versus your listing
on a third-party app. To do this, simply add recall QR codes to to the marketing materials in the customer's
carry out bag to send them directly to you for all future orders.

4. 4. Take control by building your own App. Another convenient option that streamlines the ordering process
is to capture online ordering using the Google Ordering App. https://the.ordering.app/
5. Go beyond third-party apps and save money by incorporating chatbot texting solutions. Help customers
place their order on multiple channels with the Zest Mama platform. https://zestmama.com/
6. Integrate online ordering into your current POS System. The initial investment pays off in labor costs and a
higher accuracy rate. https://www.reddit.com/r/restaurateur/comments/fuoubi/ordermark_vs_chowly/
7. Pictures, Pictures, Pictures. Entice customers with a visual display of menu options. Invest in quality, high res
food photos displayed in carryout packaging that closely resembles how the food will arrive to the
customer. Third-party delivery platforms will give you the option to let them take photos for you, so take
advantage of the added service
8. Turn Scrolling Into Sales - Help customers take immediate action on your social media channels by setting
up an "Order Now" option on your page. https://www.eatthis.com/instagram-order-now-option/
9. Menu Engineering- Help customers navigate your menu with ease by adding food categories like
appetizers, sandwiches, drinks, or desserts. Keep your food categories simple and specific by limiting your
descriptions to one to two words.
10. Challenge your Sales Consultant. Set up a monthly call, and set clear expectations of what is expected to
guarantee your satisfaction on their platform. Remember, your success is their success.
