Today, DoorDash announced a suite of products designed to enable restaurants to drive off-peak demand and grow sustainably. Our Lunch Specials (available between 11am-2pm) and Happy Hour (available between 2pm-5pm) deals and promotions entice customers to order during the quieter times of the day, and restaurants can choose between discounting their entire menu or discounting only certain items. You can hear directly from Clinton Gray, Co-Founder and Chief Brand Officer, at Slim & Husky’s Pizza Beeria’s on their experience using these products: "I love working with special promotions, and DoorDash has been a fantastic partner in boosting our happy hour business through this new program. The revenue generated during these hours helps balance our labor costs while keeping our team members engaged during typically slow times of the day. It's a great strategy for community-based businesses looking to find new customers that will lead to increased revenue week over week.” Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gA3Vap3k
