The Problem
Third-party fees, missed calls, and staff tied to phones quietly reduce cash flow every day—often without being clearly visible.
Across the restaurants we’re featuring, a pattern keeps showing up:
Up to 30% third-party app commissions
Ongoing online ordering subscription fees
Staff tied to the phones
Missed calls during peak and after hours
Customer relationships controlled by third-party apps
For selected restaurants, the interview may extend beyond visibility:
Full margin on direct orders
More cash flow in the restaurant each month
Less staff time spent on phones
More orders captured during peak or after hours
The long-term value the eCommerce storefront creates
Use third-party apps for discovery and delivery—ClickGrub helps you keep the customer and the cash flow.
