The pros and cons of building your own POS system

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Adam Oldenburg, the CEO of Toppers Pizza, a Wisconsin-based franchise with 72 locations and aspirations to scale far beyond that. Adam started with Toppers 17 years ago as a delivery driver and was announced as founder Scott Gittrich’s successor as CEO just a few months ago. He joined the podcast to talk about Toppers’ decision to build its own point-of-sale system and how it’s benefitting Toppers in its efforts to scale.

In this conversation, you’ll find out why:
Working your way up through one brand gives you a unique perspective on your people
You don’t stumble into positions of leadership
A founder is a great sounding board for your ideas
Building your own point of sale system is an incredible competitive advantage…
…but building your own platform is also a huge commitment that takes a while to pay off
You can’t stop the technological revolution
The relationship between restaurants and third-party delivery is still cloudy
