A COVID-19 business success story: $1087.80 in under 24hours with the doors shut!


How some restaurants are keeping the money flowing in.

A COVID-19 business success story: $1087.80 in under 24hours with the doors shut!This is the success story of Restaurant Owner Kylie Wood.

Kylie is the proprietor of BKA VEGAN in Burleigh Heads on Queensland’s Gold Coast.

Kylie had closed the doors on her restaurant, adhering to Federal Government Corona Virus directives.

With no obvious way of sustaining her business, Kylie was certain she would lose her business.

But today Kylie has hope.

In the past 24 hours, Kylie has filled 59 online- orders totally $1087.80! That’s over $1000 on her first day of being closed to the public.

In just a few hours Kylie pivoted her business and is now focusing her efforts on servicing customers directly through online order and her own app.

"To bring you up to date on your success story.

Wednesday collection orders closed last night at 5pm with 52 items ordered totalling $870.80.  We also have pre-orders coming in already for Friday collection 9 in total at a value of $217.00 so we’re up over $1,000 for the first day of being closed to the public”.

Kylie used WOWAPPS to create a menu and an app in minutes and now has a direct channel to service and talk to her customers.
