Tech Innovator UpCell Now Announces Free Unlimited Restaurant Revenue Challenge, To Teach Restauranteurs How To Drive Sales Without Costly Delivery Apps

Tech Innovator UpCell Now is announcing a free 1-Hour Unlimited Restaurant Revenue Challenge on Saturday, January 30, a training webinar to teach restauranteurs how to leverage mobile messaging instead of delivery apps to drive sales during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Workshop registration is at www.unlimitedrestaurantrevenue.com.

Entrepreneur and food truck owner Dorsey West developed the program. “We’re going to set these restauranteurs up on our UpCell Now restaurant marketing system,” he says, “which is a 3-step automated tool for customers to connect to their favorite restaurants using their mobile phones.” Dorsey adds that this technology sharply reduces restaurants’ advertising spend and eliminates high delivery app fees.

Although maintaining visibility in front of customers is a major benefit that delivery apps offer, “The app fees actually hurt local restaurants,” Dorsey says, “because they cut into the restaurants’ revenues – anywhere between 15% and 50% of the price of the order – so owners are barely breaking even.”

“Many loyal customers don’t realize the financial strain that ordering through delivery apps is putting on their favorite restaurants,” he says.

Dorsey characterizes UpCell Now as a lifeline for restaurant owners, helping them survive through the unprecedented challenges restaurants nationwide are facing now because of pandemic-related capacity limits. UpCell Now sends customers messages with special dine-in, takeout, and delivery deals from their favorite restaurants, encouraging them to order directly. “This way, the restaurants keep all the revenue from each transaction.”

Sending customers exclusive deals via mobile phone messages that reward them for placing their orders directly can help local restaurants immediately increase sales.
