💸 The $1,000+ Mistake You Don’t See Coming
It’s not always the big bills that hurt your bottom line — it’s the quiet leaks.
Overbuying inventory you don’t sell.
Serving portions that are too big.
Handing out free sauces without tracking.
Those small hits add up fast — I’ve seen trucks lose $800–$1,200/month just from poor portion control or waste.
Here’s the fix:
✅ Track your top 5 selling items’ food cost weekly.
✅ Set clear portion sizes for every dish.
✅ Treat sauce cups and add-ons like inventory — they cost you, too.
✅ Use smaller containers or plates. The same amount of food looks fuller in a tighter space — customers perceive it as generous, but you’re saving food cost every single order.
💬 What’s one small leak in your business you fixed (or need to fix) this month?
