People are tired of Uber Eats (here's how to turn that into an opportunity)
Let's face it: people are growing tired of Uber Eats. They're tired of high fees, tipping, and online menu prices that don't match what's listed in-store. While delivery apps won't disappear overnight, there's an opportunity here, and restaurants are taking notice.
Using Uber Eats strategically:
While Uber Eats isn't ideal for your bottom line, you can still use it smartly. One of our clients started putting 30% discount coupons in every Uber Eats order bag to encourage customers to visit in person. Why? Because once people experience your food in its proper setting, they’re more likely to become regulars.
Hidden costs of delivery:
Uber reviews don't boost your Google profile: A 5-star Uber review stays on the app and doesn’t help your restaurant’s visibility.
Empty dining rooms: When your restaurant looks empty, potential diners might assume something's wrong, even if you're busy fulfilling delivery orders.
Staff miss out on tips: Delivery tips go to drivers, not your team.
Plan ahead: build your own customer base
Uber Eats is trending downward because of rising fees and diminishing returns—no one is winning. Drivers aren't making enough, you're forced to raise your prices to the edge of what customers are willing to pay, and Uber Eats continues to take a 30% commission from your sales. It's unsustainable.
It's time to take back control. Start communicating to your customers why they should order directly from you instead of through the app: better prices, better value, and a better overall experience. That’s where CHCKN comes in.
Why choose CHCKN:
Own the relationship: Build your own CRM filled with loyal customers who actually know and appreciate your business.
Stop competing in a crowded marketplace: Instead of fighting for attention against every other restaurant in the app, cultivate direct connections.
Serve your neighbors: Rebuild meaningful, lasting relationships with the people around you.
