Experienced Restaurant Owner Discovers the True Cost of Delivery Apps
As an experienced restaurant owner, this entrepreneur knew delivery commissions were expensive but never sat down to analyze just how bad they really were. With $35,000-$36,000 in monthly delivery sales, the $10,000 in fees just blended into the overall numbers - until they took a closer look. The realization was shocking: they were hemorrhaging $10,000 every single month to delivery apps, money that could be reinvested in the business or used to properly compensate themselves as the owner.
After discovering Ready Set Delivered on Facebook, they decided to give it a shot despite initial concerns. They worried it might interfere with their POS system or confuse their staff, but the team assured them the transition would be seamless. What surprised them most was that they didn't even have to shut down the existing delivery apps during the transition - something they were particularly worried about.
Today, they're only paying about $5,000 per month instead of $10,000, saving $60,000 annually. The transition was completely smooth - nothing changed with their operations, staff wasn't confused, and their POS system worked perfectly. They've used part of the savings to redo their patio, invested in marketing, and most importantly, are finally able to pay themselves properly as the business owner. The impact goes far beyond just the numbers.
Now I'm only paying about $5,000 a month instead of $10,000, and I'm saving $60,000 a year. I used part of this to redo the patio, and the rest for marketing and actually paying myself properly.
