Suggestions for us, if any: _______________________
4) Sample size would be the people visiting the restaurant and around 250- 270 people
eating in the food lane (Khao gali), dine in restaurant lane of the city. Around 30 email
surveys would be sent out to the food bloggers of the city and would also be invited to try
our place and review it on their blogs. Live surveys would be done on a tablet with a survey
form on it with our people asking them to fill, equally during lunch and dinner times. Survey
would tell us that how often people wish to eat out in a week and whether they enjoy eating
out or delivery etc. We would also know about the problem of the veg and non veg kitchens,
also identify the occupation of people visiting us, their age group, according to which we can
give out some incentives and offers too. Offering buffet, fast food services, delivery could
also eliminate the wait time concern if the potential customers would be having any. We can
sort data using excel and use graph plotting for analysis.
