Curious about weekends

Hi all. Weekends are always slower for me.

I know by looking at the thousands of views traveling ladies get.

I get it. New flavors and excitement!

I dont suppose there is a darn thing i can do to ask guys to shop local...lol

Other than travel somewhere myself.

Thoughts? Ideas? Please dont say this is an ad. Just trying to understand the market, supply and demand.

Trying to get a peek into your mysterious brains...lol

For those of us with SOs or other family commitments, evenings and weekends are out, even for the hottest of traveling ladies...

Think it just depends on your clientele. Sunday’s are often better than Monday’s for me. Don’t really know what you could change...

I usually do a couple appts on saturdays when I visit here.....never on sundays though

Most cities I visit I will see gents on weekends....but most are longtime clients who only can play those days.

It all comes down to offering weekend availibilty and if they come ,they come....if not then count it as a weekend of chillaxin

The restaurant scene in KC is highly competitive, and even great restaurants with superior management fail all the time.

There's one place that makes a killing late night after the bars close because they're the only place open.

Another place runs a "happy hour", and a "reverse happy hour" special with late night discounts.

One restaurant has review specials where you get a discount if you post a review online. Online reviews are advertising gold, and often worth more than anything a business could pay for publicity. Reviews can really make or break a restaurant.

Yet another place has regular hours and higher than average prices, but they offer a very unique menu that people go crazy about, with food you can't find anywhere else in town.

If there's one thing that will get people to part with their money, it's a special price or discount. Often doesn't even matter what the original price was. A $4 tamale marked down to $2 for the evening will always taste better than a $2 tamale at regular price. If a hungry guy walking down Independence Ave with $5 in his pocket sees a bunch of food trucks advertising $3 or $4 tamales, he might wait until he gets to the truck that offers 2 tamales and a Mexican Coke for $5.

When it comes to ready made pizza slices, QuikTrip has mediocre pizza for $2.50 per slice. Costco has much better slices for $2.00. 7-Eleven has 2 for $2 slices, and while they are the least impressive of the three, the price is right and they are delicious. Costco probably sells the most pizza every day, but 7-Eleven has the biggest profit margin because they spend less on ingredients and cost per pizza. QT hasn't really figured out how to make real $$$ with their pizza.

If I had a restaurant, I'd market the fuck out of it ... instagram, twitter, facebook, snapchat, local newspapers and magazines, posters, billboards, word of mouth, pay taxi drivers to recommend my place, etc etc. The content of the ads, what you say, how you market the food, when and where you post ads, etc all makes a big difference too.

Rocket I always enjoy your well thought out posts. Thanks

And my restaurant does great during the week. Its hard with kids home now though.
Thanks that was brilliant

You are correct. The exact language of the guideline is "Do not mention discounts, specials, etc." and it's mentioned here.

Ask in the ladies only areas here how they word things, or take a look at some of the weekly updates from others.

Note that you can link to your own website and put whatever you want there. Also, you can put rates/etc in your signature.

But if somehow a restaurants clientele becomes aware ...
As an example, one that I'm aware of has an unlisted weekend brunch special that entices me to start my weekend morning early.

You can post in your sig line

Or like I do. Pm your regulars and offer incentives

You can post rates and offer specials in your signature line, which you aren't utilizing. Do you know how to turn on and create a signature line?
