The Tiruchirappalli angle for restaurants

Trichy's mix of heavy engineering (BHEL) + temple tourism = wildly different customer profiles. Service businesses serving both struggle to maintain coherent communications.

Zomato/Swiggy take 25-30% commission

On a ₹500 order, you keep ₹350-375. Direct WhatsApp orders keep 100% (less ~2% Razorpay fees). For a 2,000-order/month restaurant, that's ₹2-3 lakh of recovered margin.

Reservations live in a paper diary

Reservations get double-booked, lost, forgotten. The host fields phone calls, then writes in a notebook. Walk-ins fight with reservations at 8pm Saturday.

Repeat customers are anonymous

Loyal customers come back monthly but you don't know what they like, when they last visited, or how to bring them back when they lapse. No customer database.
