Arbutus Ridge

Delicious China:

"Order Wizard was a great decision - it gives me more orders."

"A couple months back Arbutus Ridge offered me a website with online ordering. It was very easy and it didn’t cost a thing to get up and running. So I went for it. "

"I didn’t see the need for a website before, but all the extra orders have converted me!"

Mr Huang, Delicious China

Noor:

"I looked into online ordering in some detail. Order Wizard is by far the best system out there for restaurants like mine."

"The technology works well, you get a good looking website, and the marketing to drive through the orders. Best of all, you pay by results."

Tayaab Hassan, Noor

Asian Rose:

"I have been in the restaurant business for 23 years, serving my customers in person or by phone. But I’m happy I got Order Wizard."

"My customers like the convenience of ordering online. They order more often. And I’m getting customers switching from other restaurants in the neighbourhood, that don’t have a system like Order Wizard."

Alam, Asian Rose

Very few restaurants actively market themselves in an effective way. Most restaurateurs believe the food they serve, will sell itself, because of its quality. After all, who understands your customer’s tastes better than you? Word of mouth does the rest and therefore the customers keep coming back... Or not?

The problem is that there are thousands of restaurants in the UK and probably dozens in your neighbourhood. All of these restaurants are competing for your customers and his or her friends. And it’s not just other restaurants. On any particular day, your customers can choose to buy convenient ready-made meals from their local supermarket. How do you keep your good customers when they have so much choice?

To succeed, you need to give your diners a reason for choosing your restaurant today, rather than one of the alternatives. You also need to sell the attractiveness of your restaurant, your food and stress the convenience of dealing with you. This works best if your restaurant marketing is done regularly and in a systematic way.

Working with Online Restaurant Directories

We often get asked, "So why are you different from the internet restaurant directories that offer online ordering?" Online restaurant directories can be a tactical way to see a modest increase in diners. After all, your restaurant will be seen by potential customers who you may not have otherwise reached. Of course, this assumes these potential diners choose your restaurant from the long list of other restaurants in your area. When you think about it, it’s not much different from a local newspaper ad or the Yellow Pages is it?

For longer term success however, you need develop your own loyal diner list. A list that you can regularly market to with offers that will ensure they order from you. This longer term and more strategic approach will create far more orders for you than those achieved by an online directory.

The best part however, is that you can have both. In fact, we are more than happy for you to let an online directory find you a few new diners because this means that they will soon see the benefits of registering with you through Order Wizard. It’s a great fit and you can’t lose.
