The
Convenience of Online Ordering
QuikOrder 4.0 enables customers to
place food orders by logging on to the restaurant’s web site. Users can view
full menus, bring up previous orders and get confirmation messages, all from
their home or office computer. QuikOrder 4.0’s ground-breaking technology makes
flipping through phonebooks, digging for coupons and being put on hold
obsolete.
Ordering through the internet delivers
benefits to customers and restaurant owners alike, according to Eric Bermont,
QuikOrder vice president of sales and marketing. “Customers appreciate the
speed and ease of placing orders online and will keep coming back,” he said.
“The restaurant gains customer loyalty, averages a higher dollar amount per
order, and positions itself as a leader by taking advantage of new technology.”
The
Power of E-Commerce
“QuikOrder
delivers more than just pizza. Some of our restaurants receive more than 20
percent of their business over the web,” Bermont said. “Average Internet ticket
sales are higher than conventional phone or fax orders, and for many customers,
online ordering is a ‘must-have’ feature – they don’t like busy signals or
delays. What they do like is seeing
the entire menu with large images and size options.”
When
a new customer visits a QuikOrder restaurant site, the patented system maps
their location to confirm that the customer is in the restaurant’s designated
delivery or carryout area. Once an order is placed, the customer receives a
confirmation email and the order is sent directly to the restaurant’s
point-of-sale system, eliminating any requirement to answer a call or receive a
fax. Each QuikOrder site is
custom-designed with the restaurant’s logos, colors and menus and showcases
prices and special offers. The flexible system supports even the most complex
menus, and can easily be configured by the user at any time. Best of all, the
site is designed to easily integrate into a restaurant’s existing web page.
Available
Nationwide
QuikOrder

world-class online ordering system available to more than a few select chains.
“Until now, we have been providing our services solely to the top pizza chains
in the world,” Bermont said. “Today, we’re happy to offer that same quality
service to restaurants and chains of any size.”
