The choice of suppliers will waste you a lot of time, but it is a very important level. We must pay attention to the quality when purchasing pots and pans, and don't try to be cheap because of small gain. In terms of management, it is best to set the cashier at the door, and there must be a money detector. The cashier should also be able to check the money with the naked eye. Usually, college students don't want many invoices when they eat, but you also have enough bills. In addition, the hygiene of tableware and pots must be done well. College students are very picky although they don't make money. The cleanliness and neatness of the bathroom will win many guests' patronage again. Early management, not for profit, just for fame. I'll give you some more practical suggestions: 1, the dishes are not perfect, and the demand is aimed at college students. It's a road of small profits but quick turnover, so it's necessary to have all kinds of dishes, such as seafood, which is expensive. Ordinary self-help hot pot restaurants will only serve one or two varieties, but the main dishes, such as mutton, can't be out of stock. You can supply sliced mutton in unlimited quantities, but seafood is served separately according to the number of people, for example, a table for two people and a shrimp (the weight is between 4 Liang and half a catty, you can master this yourself. ), four people serve two shrimps at a table, or one shrimp and one cuttlefish, and six people can serve three shrimps or three different seafood. 2. The owner of a limited-time unlimited self-service shop should be most afraid of a guest who has not planned to check out for four hours after sitting down. Therefore, your self-service hot pot restaurant can be limited in time, for example, within two hours of the guest's meal, without any additional fees. There is an extra charge for more than two hours, and everyone doesn't have to add too much. 5 yuan is almost the same. Many people will eat their fill in two hours, and they will check out on time, which will make your turnover rate higher. Those who don't have enough to eat within two hours don't care about adding 5 yuan, because their purpose is to continue to eat more. 3, essential with beer drinks, these drinks are not expensive, but they occupy a lot of stomach space. You can provide unlimited beer and drinks. If the guests and beer can be full, then you can be rich. Ha ha. 4, special buffet hot pot should also have its own characteristics, such as the bottom of your pot, spices, dishes, you might as well try several hot pot restaurants and find inspiration from them. Considering that hot pot restaurant is not suitable for four seasons operation, I suggest you consider making a comprehensive cafeteria, such as spring and summer barbecue buffet and autumn and winter hot pot buffet. 5, publicity is very important. The preferential activities in the early stage are indispensable. It is also indispensable to go to the university to post advertisements and distribute leaflets. If you want to do it for a long time, you can consider issuing a membership card. You can also engage in some simple competitions, such as the salad plate in Pizza Hut, and also engage in a similar one, giving the contestants a plate to see who can pack the most kinds or quantities of things in a certain period of time, and the winner will get a half-price dining opportunity. 6, quality assurance.
