Ready to Make 3rd-Party Delivery Work for You?
Third-party delivery is no longer optional—it’s a core revenue channel for today’s restaurants.
Love them or hate them, that’s where your guests are. But that doesn’t mean you have to accept bad deals and unfavorable terms. What used to be a three-page agreement is now a maze of hidden fees, complex rate structures, and marketing commitments that quietly drain your margins. Without expert negotiation, you’re not only leaving money on the table but control too.
Figure 8 brings over six years of deep expertise in DSP contract negotiation, shaped by work consulting leading multi-unit brands. We give operators the clarity, leverage, and strategic insight needed to turn delivery into a sustainable, profitable channel that now works for you.
