[Webinar] Declare independence from third party delivery @ Zoom

Tickets

Jan 26 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am

The coronavirus pandemic has forced restaurants to rethink many aspects of their business and prioritize off-premise sales. While many (if not most) brands rely on them, third-party platforms are not the solution to meet the growing consumer demand for delivery, as they introduce a slew of problems, from brand management risks to delivery fees that cut into the operators’ profits. Today, restaurants are presented with a greenfield of opportunity to take back control of their delivery services, brand, and digital marketplace by choosing to deploy a native delivery strategy.

Topics we will touch on:

Native Delivery will enable you to survive and thrive in and beyond this pandemic
How 3rd party apps are damaging to your restaurant brand
There is a greenfield of opportunity for those that have a Native Delivery strategy. Will you seize this opportunity?
