Carryout orders placed digitally are up 279% according to a restaurant industry advisor

Everyone knows restaurant delivery via services like GrubHub, Uber Eats and DoorDash are all the rage right now but they take a large portion of every transaction. Don't let the hype keep you from seeing the real ordering growth from Digitally Ordered Carryout.

When you operate your own online ordering website you can save thousands of dollars while giving customers what they want. They want to do business with a restaurant that they can engage in many ways including ordering online. The great thing about offering online ordering from your own system is the fact it is cost effective and efficient for your guest. 

no one is saying don't offer guest the options of the big deliver services just be sure to be offering your customers a way to digitally order food for carryout as well. Features like these are built right into the Heartland Restaurant POS system and help build customer loyalty. You don't even need your own website to use online ordering from the industry's most powerful iPad POS system.

Is Uber Eats and GrubHub to expensive for your restaurant?

I just recently had a meeting with an owner of a very high end restaurant on the east side and our conversation took us to his plans on offering delivery on his own instead of using Uber Eats or Grub Hub. After doing the math it was easy to see you could keep much more of the revenue if you offer your own plan. Granted your in-house technology needs to be able to do that of course, which is where I came into the picture.

The Heartland Restaurant Point of Sale system is perfect for operators that want to operate their own on-line ordering and delivery service. Both of these features are built into the Heartland Point of Sale system. With the delivery services increasing their fees from what I have heard up to 30% it is simple to see.

A great tactic would be to start with Uber Eats or Grub Hub and then switch to your own program as your following builds up. So instead of paying them up to 30% you get full price plus a small deliver fee if you want to add it, why not since Uber does on top of the 20 or 30% they rake off the top.
