Make it count.

Operating a business in a down economy has many challenges, especially one which relies on a consistent flow of both new and repeat consumer traaffic.  Effects of this economic struggle can be felt regardless of the size of your business. Individuality and differentiation from the competition helps distinguish your business’s place, but not always in a positive direction.

As budgets tighten, environmental hygiene can often become an area of oversight. A recent survey details the importance of maintaining fresh facilities and the impact poorly maintained facilities can have on repeat business.  Offensive odors (57%) ranked as the second highest reason a patron polled would choose not to re-visit a restaurant. A staggering 88% believe the hygiene conditions in restrooms reflect the entire establishment’s standards of cleanliness.
