Across the restaurant industry, there are hiring shortages and minimum wage increases.
82% of pizza shops are actively recruiting, but are struggling to fill roles. 26% of restaurants expect staffing shortages to worsen over the next 12 months.
Can automating your takeout process with voice ordering solve these problems? The answer is yes, and Firestone Pizza Co. did it for free…and saved over $4,500 in labor costs per month.
“Before HeyTARA, we just kept hiring people. That got expensive pretty quickly. HeyTARA is super cheap and practically runs in the background. Wish we'd found TARA sooner.” - Owner, Firestone Pizza Co.
How did they do it?

They made a strategic decision to stick to the free plan indefinitely.
Now, they just turn on HeyTARA during their busiest hours.
