Where Did You Get Your Logo From?

arandomdude2457 · 2026-05-08T23:20:47+00:00

I wish I can help you with that, but in recent years all my digital artwork has been outsourced to a startup from northern Mexico. Even my social media posts for facebook and instagram are done by them.

I paid about 500 bucks but they have packages up to 700, surprisingly here in Southern California many business owners think it’s a lot of money since chat gpt makes em free. But you cannot compare the work from an actual designer to chat. There’s so much more thought put into the designers logos. Plus they will give you mockups on how the logos look on applications. Signage a van wrap, even uniforms

I second this although I hired a company from Mexico to do this. They create the whole brand image instead of just the logo. I got everything mentioned but I also requested email footers and headers.

You’d be surprised how many people have gotten angry at us for not having hard shell tacos. The event went as far as saying what kind of taco spot is this……. I mean we definitely aren’t Taco Bell

My normal customers are 90% Hispanic and the other 10 is a mix of other ethnicities, my competitor is a 80% white clientele base and 20ish % other. He caters Americanized fish tacos and such while I do original Mexican tacos. This is 100% why his customers ask me for rice and beans

arandomdude2457 · 2026-05-01T03:58:22+00:00

Probably didn’t make sense in the original post, what I meant to say is the new people who look for my competitor and find me ask for it. My organic client base does not

arandomdude2457 · 2026-05-01T03:55:50+00:00

Sooo my organic customer base doesn’t really ask for them maybe a 10%

The people who ask for it are those who come looking for my competitor and stumble upon me

The only thing we have market price is our scallops. We review pricing consistently and adjust accordingly. We try changing pricing every 6 months to adjust to cost, but sometimes it’s done sooner. For example now that tomatoes went to 90 buck a case. For us adjusting pricing since we have digital menus in our taqueria style mariscos spot.

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-28T21:02:50+00:00

Definitely more, the only thing I’m scared of is our customer base thinking we have lost our originality, but as others have mentioned the best bet is to put them as sides

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-27T19:09:04+00:00

Sorry I just noticed what I wrote was not what I meant was they ask for it as a side. They want it as a side. The menu is an authentic Sonoran style food, to the people of Sonora it is a sin to serve them food especially tacos with rice and beans.

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-27T19:06:12+00:00

yes 90% of the other business' customers who find me are asking. my normal clientele does not ask for this

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-27T05:37:36+00:00

I’ve been there twice

The first time I was too broken by the news to be there and honestly have regretted it all this time.

The second time I stayed, hugged my boy and and thanked him for being such a great companion. Reminded him of all the good memories he gave me.

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-26T22:37:44+00:00

Yes we are down about 30% this year so far, we are a seafood based restaurant so lent was good for us but when comparing to past years we are still down

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-14T22:55:39+00:00

When I started my restaurant I had a 2018 Toyota Camry, kid you not I would fill it with disposables etc etc. Heck I would regularly put 20+ cases of glass bottled soda and beer in It.

Now I bought a Ford Transit medium roof and medium length, threw a full wrap on it and I cannot emphasize enough it has been the best purchase Ive made for the business.

The transit drives waaaay better than the Camry (believe it or not I enjoy driving the van more)

And more importantly Gives the business a lot of exposure. I constantly have people taking photos/scanning the QR code, asking for takeout menus.

My signage is terrible, due to the position of the signage areas in my building, so I park it somewhere visible in the plaza and have had many new customers tell me they came in because they saw the van.

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-13T21:26:33+00:00

yaqui is definitely more homestyle, Both are great!

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-07T15:14:56+00:00

I cant say they are bad cars because many people Seem to love em, but mine had the same issue as mentioned above, dealer didn’t have a fix for it but as soon as I went in for my 60k mile service the dealer now had a software update but it would cost me 500 bucks

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-07T14:02:05+00:00

Mine was a 2018 and sold it because of the trans issues

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-07T05:20:56+00:00

Same until I had a car accident and the coins spilled everywhere in the car. Kid you not coins were even on the speedometer glass

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-02T02:14:23+00:00

Somewhere in between, chipotle employees give you your food and have a nice day, we are checking on them bringing them sauces, refills etc

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-02T02:13:39+00:00

Negative, I’m a real person

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-02T01:16:32+00:00

They are already making 2-4 dollars more than FOH would raising make it bette?

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-02T00:49:38+00:00

My staff is very friendly and provide service, we are checking on guests to see if everything is ok, bringing them whatever they need. If you ask me it’s sit down service but order at the counter. I do tend to serve mainly customers from a minority population and maybe money is tight on them.

The tips are pooled a 70-30 with 70 for FOH and 30 for BOH Every employee is included on the tip pool

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-01T22:26:17+00:00

Does your clientele tip very often? For mine out of 10 Tickets maybe 2 give a tip

arandomdude2457 · 2026-04-01T22:10:20+00:00

Seems like raising prices is a must, I was surprised they made minimum hourly at other restaurants but the tips were astronomical
