Monday, March 13 |
9:00 AM to 12:00 PM |
Big Dave Ostrander
Consultant/Speaker/Trainer, Dave Ostrander Consulting
You’ve dreamed of owning your own pizzeria. Where do you start? So many
critical questions. Should you go the franchise route or be an independent?
How do you make the right choices on Location, Recipes, Menu, Logo, Service Style,
Marketing, Hiring, and the other 50 decisions that you need to make correctly?
Where do you get the experience to guarantee profitability?
Big Dave Ostrander has opened seven shops of his own and guided and coached dozens
of clients through this maze. In this first of its kind workshop, Dave will provide
you with a roadmap, timeline and budgets. He’ll answer all of your questions so
you’ll start off on the right foot. He will share his 30 years life experiences
and teach you to keep your head as you side step the pitfalls on the way from The
Dream – to – Opening Day.
This three hour workshop is a must attend if pizzeria ownership is in your future.
It will also be an eye-opening refresher if you are new to the business and still
are searching for all of the answers. If Dave can do it in Dubai….He can do it for you!
Reminder: Space is limited, so
sign up now when you register for the
2006 International Pizza Expo.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT POS SYSTEM FOR YOU
|
|
Tuesday, March 14th & Wednesday, March 15th |
8:45AM
to 10:15 AM |
Big Dave Ostrander
Consultant/Speaker/Trainer, Dave Ostrander Consulting
Choosing the right POS System is one of the most important decisions
you’ll make as a pizzeria operator. Choosing the wrong one, like Big Dave
did the first time, is a nightmare. Every Friday night his manager shot
him drop-dead looks when the system went down. Three years later he tossed
out the $20,000 mistake and did it right the next time. Fast-forward seven years.
More and more technology is being utilized on the newer second-generation systems.
Big Dave has developed an 8-step approach to demystify the process. These steps
will dramatically help increase your odds of matching the right system at the
right price for your operation. Which features are fluff and which ones will
fill your pockets with cash? Do you need and will you use all of the features?
Which features are mandatory and which ones can you live without? Learn how to
avoid the sales fluff and hype and make your decision based on facts not promises.
This organized approach will help you choose the right company with the skills and
resources to keep the system functioning for years to come. If you’re not up to
making a $20,000 mistake like Big Dave did, you should make it to this seminar.

distributor. He will share powerful insights learned from consulting to the
