Restaurant Chain Triples Revenue
How Gold Coast Restaurant Group went from struggling to thriving, tripling revenue in 12 months through digital transformation and intelligent automation.
The Crisis Point
Gold Coast Restaurant Group was losing the digital race. With 5 locations and declining foot traffic, they were hemorrhaging customers to tech-savvy competitors offering seamless online ordering and delivery.
Revenue Challenges
- • 30% revenue decline over 2 years
- • Losing customers to delivery apps
- • High commission fees (30%+)
- • No customer data ownership
Operational Issues
- • Phone orders causing bottlenecks
- • No customer loyalty program
- • Manual marketing efforts
- • Zero online presence
