Introducing new CenterEdge Business Intelligence Tool

You’re a busy operator and if you’re like us, you probably spend time wondering if you’re doing all you can to grow your business or operate more efficiently. You’ve heard in seminars all about the importance of being data-driven and making smarter decisions. But what does that even mean in the real world?

Food service is one area that can significantly impact your business’ reputation and it’s no secret that everyone’s a critic these days.

It’s essential that FECs and amusement parks pay as much attention in their food service operation as they do in selecting the right attractions and maintaining them. In the past, some entertainment venues made do with a limited concession menu or outsourced food just for special events. Today, many facilities are considering fast casual or even full-service food and beverage as a major part of their operation.

Sell additional game play or attractions and add them to event player cards – even while the cards are in use at your facility.

Want to boost birthday party or event revenue during an event? Today’s CenterEdge Pro Tip shows you how to add money or play privileges to game cards – even while they’re in use at your facility – to boost revenue and experience and end parties on an even higher note!

Shorten your busy to-do list by having important reports sent to you automatically on a one-time or recurring basis.

There are many ways that you can make partnering with your community a win for everyone. And what’s even better, tracking and managing your donations can be done seamlessly, without causing administrative headaches or complicated staff procedures thanks to party software.
