Combo Deals

Treat your customers to more; more variety, more savings, and more reasons to visit your venue! 

If your Meat Lovers pizza is priced at $15, and your beer is priced at $10, a combo deal that will tickle the fancy of customers will be a $20 deal - saving them $5, and heightening your chances of selling more than you would if you were to sell them individually. It all comes down to understanding your customers - what they like, don't like and what they find valuable.
