​For restaurant staff, busy summer periods mean managing multiple guests and open orders. While restaurant owners try to make the best of summertime rushes and events with promotions and discounts that draw customers into their store, businesses operating with fewer employees are also determining ways to work efficiently during busy periods.

Imagine dozens of diners eating at their favorite local restaurant on a warm Saturday night. When the dinner rush hits, servers are constantly moving between tables as they struggle to manage multiple customers, process payments, order additional items, and periodically check on guests.

Food Trucks Drive Sales with Aldelo Express

​Food Trucks Drive Sales with Aldelo Express
Merchant- and Customer-Facing POS Solutions Scale with the Business

3-minute read ---
​

Unlike brick-and-mortar stores that are limited to a certain vicinity and customer market, food trucks have the freedom to roam local communities and garner a loyal customer following. While some food trucks may focus solely on one or a few communities, other businesses meet customers at events and gatherings miles away, and others do a bit of both to solidify their brand’s success and establish relationships with seasonal customers.

But a food truck’s mobility also brings great operational and technological challenges, especially when business owners want to provide customer-facing ordering, payment, gift card, or loyalty program solutions to grow their business and reward customers for their loyalty.

Top 5 Reasons Your Food​ Truck Needs Aldelo Express

Top 5 Reasons Your Food ​Truck Needs Aldelo Express​

2-minute read ---
​

The best thing about food trucks is their mobility. Many food trucks are a brand in and of themselves, and like their favorite music groups, customers will follow food trucks from one location to the next. Some restaurants are closing brick-and-mortar spaces and moving solely to food trucks for promoting and selling their food and drinks. Conversely, other brick-and-mortar restaurants are purchasing food trucks as an extension of their business into local and neighboring communities. Perfect for farmers markets, fairs, parades, fundraisers, and other outdoor events, food trucks contribute to a vibrant and festive atmosphere that customers easily recognize and gravitate towards.

Unlike brick-and-mortar businesses who must market to the masses in order to gain new customers, food truck marketing often means going to where customers are. Some food trucks may focus solely on one community, others follow customers to events and gatherings, and still others do a bit of both to solidify their brand’s success.

Multi-Touch Interfaces Increase Ease ​of Use and Order Speed
Merchants Save Time and Money with Smart POS Gestures

​

From personal smartphones and computers to self-service kiosks and customer-facing displays, millions of Americans interact with multi-touch interfaces on a daily basis. Restaurant owners are realizing that POS hardware with multi-touch capabilities make it easy for employees to simplify certain functions. By working with familiar multi-touch user-interfaces, employees spend less time learning how to use POS devices and more time adjusting to business workflows and providing personalized guest experiences.

With “smart” POS gestures, POS terminals become user-friendly tools that can instantaneously launch specific features and functions with one touch rather than through multiple steps. As a result, restaurants improve overall operational efficiency and simultaneously increase staff morale with easy-to-use devices.

Provide VIP Guest Experiences
with Aldelo Express Digital Reservation and Waitlist Modules

​For restaurants, digital reservation books and waitlists mean increased visibility of customer volume and the opportunity to proficiently manage table turn rates on any given night. Serving multiple parties per table increases a restaurant’s profit and can add up to hundreds of dollars a month. For customers, they mean shorter wait times and VIP-style dining experiences, since customers can inform a restaurant of any special requests, party information, or needs before they arrive and expect high-quality treatment as they are served. Today, table reservations and waitlists are not limited to high-end restaurants, but enable customers to easily dine with large parties and enjoy dining experiences on their schedule in nearly any kind of restaurant or bar environment.

As summer approaches and tourists return to travel, restaurants offering table reservations and waitlists provide enhanced dining experiences to more customers and easily accommodate increased crowds.

​This year, Father’s Day is on June 19th. Each year, businesses compete to be the go-to restaurant for a Father’s Day meal or dessert.

​As POS technologies continue to rapidly develop, today’s “modern” POS capabilities are continually outgrowing today’s hardware. In Q3 of 2021, Microsoft released their latest operating system, Windows 11. For many restaurant owners, this brought on the time-consuming task of determining if their Windows-based POS hardware could support the new upgrades, or if they had to make the expensive investment into new POS hardware.

However, many restaurant owners discovered an even better solution: moving to the cloud and utilizing point of sale hardware with less stringent specifications versus that of Windows-based hardware requirements, saving them thousands of dollars on costly new hardware and upgrades over the life of the system.

Easy Ways to Improve Traditional Sandwich Menus

3-minute read ---

​In the world of western cuisine, sandwiches are almost as old as sliced bread … almost. Though an ancient Jewish rabbi called Hillel the Elder ate fruit, nuts, and wine between two pieces of flatbread in the 1st century B.C, the sandwich as we know it today was not popularized until the 18th century when the Earl of Sandwich John Mategeau opted for his lunch to-go between two slices of thick, leavened bread. Today, sandwiches are an easy, packable solution for picnics, sporting events, beach trips, and the office. Served hot or cold, sandwiches remain an irreplaceable part of restaurant menus and homemade meals alike.
​
As summer approaches, the peak season for outdoor events and packed lunches, here are some non-traditional ways restaurants can engage customers with improved sandwich menus, using seasonal ingredients, topping combinations, and flavor profiles that customers may not think to make at home.

Activate Digital Ordering and Payments to
Combat Labor Shortages and Rising Hourly Rates

3-minute read ---

​Labor is one of the most controllable costs business owners have. With the right visibility, managers know when to prepare for an influx of orders, and conversely, when to reduce purchases and related inventory levels. Having proper insights into the operation allows managers to properly staff and control labor costs.

​In addition to these reporting features, modern restaurant point of sale technology provides a means to nimbly manage expenses based on the current needs of the business. By implementing digital services that include ordering, payments, and digital receipts, businesses become less reliant on physical labor. Additionally, these businesses reduce costs related to managing guest services such as printable receipts, legacy gift card, loyalty, and coupon programs. By going digital, restaurant information becomes readily available to operators in order to make important business decisions that protect the bottom line.
