Textaurant

Textaurant helps restaurants build relationships with their patrons before they sit down, boosting in-visit revenue and return rates. Combining CRM, loyalty, marketing, and waiting list management, Textaurant restaurants lose fewer patrons, increase overall revenue, and offers guests reasons (and ways) to spend money both during the wait and after the visit.

DebiDowner2 - Textaurant has been around for 2 years, has customers, investment, and advisors. It's not a project put together by people on a bus - it's a company.

Posted By mat.villar, 03-16-2011 (2 years and 3 months)

I voted for eEvent.com, I like the product - I don't have to be a professional event planner and I can hold one in a zip with this tool. Awesome!

What do you have against the StartupBus?

Posted By DebiDowner2, 03-16-2011 (2 years and 3 months)

I have nothing against the StartupBus - in fact, I *LOVE* the concept. But you questioned how Textaurant is different from NoWait, and I answered. The primary difference is that Textaurant is a company, with customers, a business model, etc; whereas NoWait is a project.

@Textaurant, I apologize on behalf of our fans. We just posted in our twitter account and they are excited to win the competition

Posted By eEvent, 03-17-2011 (2 years and 3 months)

Wow. Sudden influx of voters for eEvent, none of whom has created a profile other than registering and voting for eEvent.

You want to win that badly, it's yours.

Posted By Textaurant, 03-17-2011 (2 years and 3 months)

eEvent, eEvent, eEvent! FTW!

Posted By alphaone, 03-17-2011 (2 years and 3 months)

eEvent does look cool. But I was really rooting for Textaruant. The concept is very awesome, even if a few other people are doing it. I'm sure it will take over.
