The online delivery market can be lose-lose-lose proposition. Sauce (@getsauce) makes it a win-win-win.
Sauce is a commission-free pickup and delivery network for restaurants that wants to help them take back control of how their food gets to the customer. The mission is to help them build a profitable delivery business online by selling directly to consumers.
In this conversation live from the National Restaurant Association Show in Chicago, Shawn Walchef talks with Sauce CEO/founder Li-ran Navon about how even the smallest restaurants can make money from delivery, without the trouble typically associated with it.
The data shows that 80 percent of the orders online are the same customers, ordering the same items, from the same restaurant. The problem in an online world is this type of customer behavior does not help your business grow.
For a mom-and-pop restaurant the delivery process can be daunting, and pricey, too. Seven out of 10 restaurants are single-unit restaurants, he said, so there are a lot of places out there that need help with delivery.
“In order to be successful online you need like five different professions,” Navon said about the difficulties of running a modern restaurant company. “Even if you’re savvy, it’s hard to be successful.”
