Forecasting covers: the restaurant version

Retail forecasts units; a restaurant forecasts people — covers by service, fourteen services a week, each with its own personality. Get it right within ten per cent and prep, rota and ordering all fall into line. Here is the method, honestly sized for an independent.

From 'what happened' to 'what to do': prescriptive analytics, honestly

Descriptive tells you what happened, predictive what likely will, prescriptive what to do about it. The ladder is real; most software on it is not where it claims to be. How to tell genuine prescriptive tools from reporting in a nicer suit.

What your door count knows that your till doesn't

Footfall is the earliest number your shop produces each day, and most owners never look at it. Conversion, not traffic, is usually the real story — and you cannot see conversion without counting the people who walked past the till without stopping.

Price the plate, not the menu

Most menus are priced by copying the restaurant across the road. Recipe costing — knowing what every dish actually costs to put on the table — is tedious exactly once, and then it changes every pricing decision you make. The dishes you think are your winners rarely are.

Recipe costing tells you what a dish costs; menu pricing strategy decides what happens next — where dishes sit, what anchors them, which margins the layout quietly promotes. The menu is the only price list your customers read while hungry. Design it on purpose.

Customers rarely storm out. They fade: visits stretch from weekly to monthly, baskets shrink, and by the time the revenue line notices, they have a new habit somewhere else. Churn prediction sounds like enterprise software. It is actually just noticing the fade while there is still time to act.

Reducing food waste is a decision problem, not a virtue problem
