Pizza vending machines might be the biggest "watch this space" topic in the industry right now. The whole category is developing at a dizzying rate—PizzaForno says it will have 1,000 machines across the U.S. by 2027. Would you order pizza from a vending machine? https://lnkd.in/gqn9aW7p

Bruce Irving is on point with his comments about the pizza community. It truly is a family!
Follow for proven, real-world business strategies | Actionable tips from a pizza shop & travel agency owner, applicable to any industry.
Most industries are cutthroat. But the pizza community? It’s different. Pizzeria owners don’t see each other as competition—they see each other as partners in the same mission. I’ve seen owners share recipes, marketing ideas, and business tips without hesitation. Why? Because it’s about the craft. The pride in making an amazing pizza. 🍕 The shared struggle of late nights, working on the marketing plan, hoping it works how you planned. We’re not in this just to win—we’re in this to make sure the entire industry gets better. When one pizzeria wins, we all win. You can call it a rising tide mentality. It’s the secret sauce that makes this community so special. If you’re new to the game, don’t be afraid to reach out and ask for help. Odds are, there’s an owner just like you who’s gone through it before—and they’ll be more than happy to share what worked for them. We don’t gatekeep here. We elevate. That’s why I’m so proud to be part of this community that Ilir Sela and Loren Padelford at Slice have started. 💪🍕 We are on a mission to help independent pizza operators feel like they have a full team behind them—because with this community, they do. What’s one tip you’ve learned from a fellow pizzeria owner who helped you? Let’s keep sharing the knowledge below. 👇
It’s here! The 2025 Pizza Report. ✨🍕📊PMQ Pizza
Senior Editor, PMQ | B2B Journalist Covering the Pizza Business | Creating Content Targeted at Independent Pizzeria Operators
PMQ Pizza's 2025 Pizza Power Report is officially here! Had the pleasure of getting to write one section of this year's report, which is typically Rick Hynum's annual magnum opus. Rick did it again this year. There's a ton of great info, insights, and anecdotes from the year that was—and a look ahead at the year that will be. We are also grateful for Datassential's partnership this year. The report wouldn't be as strong without the numbers they provided. Check it out. https://lnkd.in/ef4s_JMm
Who else is excited for this? 🍕📊
I kinda like how our December issue came out. The Pizza Power issue is our annual industry report. Given the changes and new challenges PMQ has undergone in the last year-ish, I think Rick Hynum and Charlie Pogacar did a heck of a job on this issue, and that's saying something.
5 Incredible Ways to Increase Online Orders — That Won’t Cost You a Dime! By @revciancio & runningrestaurants.com 1. Add an “Order Now” Button to your site It sounds obvious, but I’ve seen restaurants forget to do this. Best practice, put a big yellow, red or some other brightly lit colored button DEAD center in the middle of the page so it can’t be missed. Also, put another in the top navigation bar. You want to make sure it’s on every page. Also, while we are at it...please remove all 3rd party ordering buttons and links from your website. Let’s only give your guests the option to order from you. 2. Update Google, Yelp, TripAdvisor, Bing, etc. People use apps, maps and search engines like these to decide where to get their next meal. Most of them have a place where you can put a link to your online order. Don’t put your main web page in the form where the ordering URL goes, put the exact link directly to order. Pro-tip If you have multiple locations, put the exact link for the location in these profiles. You want to reduce the amount of clicks as much as possible. 3. Link in bio I see brands, big ones, all the time put the main URL for their website in their social media bios. Now the guest has to leave the post, tap to your profile, tap the link and then navigate your site to take the action you recommended. ==> Instead, use a service like Link Tree, LinkinBio or Milkshake (preferred - I like that you can have an image as the background) that takes people to a mini website that has all those options. You’ll make the path to take that action much easier on your guests and ultimately get more conversions! Check out the link in my bio as an example: https://hubs.la/Q02-1CWv0 4. Add a button to ALL of your emails At the bottom of every one of your email newsletters and maybe even at the top too, add a link to online ordering. Andrew from Boozy Burbs and I see it all the time. People will save your emails in their inbox and when they want to place an order, they will search for the email and click the link (rather than do a Google search). Plus, in the case that you just happen to nail sending that email at the right time, you have just made it easier to place an order, right now. 5. Run a 7 Day Promo Want to absolutely super charge the launch of your online ordering...without spending any money on advertising? Bust this move...run a 7 day contest. Anyone who places an online order the first 7 days you are live is entered to win a $100 gift card. You get one entry for every time you order, order as many times as you like! Have you tried any of these? Need help getting more orders? Drop me a line: [email protected]. https://hubs.la/Q02-1Bq30
I think it’s safe to say that we are all over turkey! 🍕 Support your local pizzeria today by either dining in or ordering delivery. #SmallBusinessSaturday #EatLocalPizza #PizzaTomorrowSummit #ShopSmall
