The problem
New Year's Eve is one of the biggest nights of the year, but many restaurants announce it late, answer the same questions one call at a time, and lose tables to no-shows. Seating times run over and the kitchen gets slammed all at once.
Step by step
- 1Decide the menu or prix fixe, the price, seating times and your deposit or cancellation rule.
- 2Pull last year's New Year's Eve covers and busiest times from your POS.
- 3Paste the details into the prompt below to get an announcement post, an email, booking reply templates and reminder texts.
- 4Check the prices, times and policy wording yourself, and set the same rules in your reservation system.
- 5Post and email the announcement by early December, and send reminders two days before.
Copy-paste prompt
I run a [type of restaurant or bar] in [town] with [number] seats. New Year's Eve plan: [menu or prix fixe, price, drinks]. Seating times: [list]. Deposit and cancellation rule: [rule]. Last year: [covers, what went wrong]. Write: (1) a short social post and a short email announcing it; (2) reply templates for booking questions like price, kids, dietary needs, and large parties; (3) a reminder text two days before with the time, policy and parking; (4) a simple plan to stagger seatings so the kitchen isn't slammed. Use only the prices and rules I give.
