Menu change impact

What happens to profit if you change the menu and sales grow

What this tool does

It compares your menu as it is now against a menu you're thinking of changing to, and shows whether the change would make you more or less profit.

It's useful when you're deciding whether to put prices up, bring prices down, or change what's on the menu — and you want to know what it would do to the bottom line.

1. Fill in your current menu — each item's cost, its sale price, and how many you sold.2. Build your proposed menu — the items, costs and prices you're considering.3. Move the sales slider — drag right if you think sales would grow, left if they'd fall. The profit comparison updates as you go.

Current menu — inputs & calculations

Enter each item on your current menu: food cost including packaging, wastage, gross selling price and units sold over the period you're analysing. Blue fields are yours to edit — everything else is calculated.

Proposed menu — inputs & calculations

Enter the menu you're considering — food cost, wastage and price. Units sold aren't typed here: each row starts from the same row's current-menu units and grows by the sales-uplift slider below. The comparison below updates as you change anything.

Paste from GoodTill

In GoodTill, open the Overview → Product report. Set your date range and select the outlets you want, then click the Copy button (next to the CSV button) and paste it in the box below — it brings in every item at once.

The tool reads each item's name and quantity sold, and works out the unit price from the sales total. Food cost is left blank for you to fill in, and anything it doesn't need is ignored.
