Download or read book How s Everything the Ultimate Guide for All Waiters and Waitresses Who Want to Dramatically Increase Their Tips written by Peter Stokes and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2006-07-21 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How's Everything? Have you ever wondered why, as a waiter or waitress, you always ask the question "How's everything?" after serving meals to your customers? The "How's everything?" question is asked virtually every time an entree is served. So much so that diners tend to ignore it as a serious enquiry. 95% of the times you ask the question it's immediately closed by your diner who responds with "Fine" a mean-nothing, one-syllable word and you walk away. This scenario is a crucial lost opportunity for increasing your tip every single time you ask the question. By saying "How's everything?" to your diners, you are sabotaging all your previous good efforts to obtain a generous tip from your very first meeting with them. Why not use this occasion to enhance your chances of a satisfying gratuity, not reduce them? Follow the strategies, outlined in this book and you will increase your tips dramatically, at no cost to you. It will take only a little extra thought. Accept my challenge to eliminate the "How's everything?" question from your work style and you will immediately realize an increase in income, not to mention an increase in job fulfillment. Now that's a deal! As for your diners? Don't worry. They will quite happily increase your gratuities provided, of course, they receive the type of superlative customer service that will make their dining experience much more enjoyable.

Download or read book The Complete Guide to Tips Gratuities written by Sharon L. Fullen and published by Atlantic Publishing Company. This book was released on 2005 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are millions of workers in the USA that rely on tips for most of their income, and there are well over two million businesses where the employers rely on tipped employees. According to recent statistics from the U.S. Department of Labor, food and beverage service-related workers held 6.5 million jobs. The U.S. Department of Labor estimates in a recent study that tips and gratuities may account for well over $5 billion per year being left on plates and tip trays, financed on credit cards and handed directly into happy, open palms. But let's face facts. Relying on customers' tips for your income is tough. The average customer just doesn't realize how difficult and hard the average waiter, waitress, hair dresser, concierge, cab driver, maître d', or bartender works for their money. Dealing with and satisfying the general public is one of the most demanding jobs around. Many, if not most, tipped employees have a tough time making ends meet. And then there are the complicated IRS tax laws regarding tipping and gratuities that most employees and few employers know how to handle correctly. For the first time this new book deals with all aspects of tips and gratuities. For the employee or self-employed, learn how to earn more tips and how to properly account for and pay taxes on them. For the employer: how to manage and properly account for the taxes on tipped employees; for the bookkeeper and accountant: get the latest on tax and withholding laws. Apart from all great and practical advice in the book, it has to be remembered that tips have to be earned, thus there are literally hundreds of little tricks, hints and suggestions to help tipped employees - well, make more tips!
