#499 - How to Increase Check Average with Dessert Sales ***** This week's episode is brought to you by: DAVO Automate your sales taxes using DAVO BY AVALARA. The software integrates with most POS systems. It sets aside your sales taxes, files on time, and submits payments before the deadline. VISIT: https://davosalestax.com/RestaurantStrategy ***** If anyone tells you NOT to sell desserts, they are flat out wrong. They haven't learned how to sell desserts the right way and you should run far, far away. I could care less about the dessert itself, but I care deeply about the cappuccinos and after-dinner drinks we can get onto the check if we succeed in selling that dessert.  On today's episode I show you how to do it right.    *****   If you want to snag a copy of Chip's book, The Restaurant Marketing Mindset...  CLICK HERE: https://www.therestaurantmarketingmindset.com/   If you're ready to learn more about the P3 Mastermind...
