If "Over Capacity": Your goal is too ambitious for your current setup. The fastest fix is to raise your Average Order Value (AOV) through bundling (e.g., combo meals) or premium add-ons.
Benchmark Your COGS: A Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) between 28-35% is standard. If yours is higher, analyze your recipes and supplier pricing.
Use Break-Even as Your Go/No-Go: Before committing to an event, compare the "Break-Even Orders" with the expected foot traffic. If it seems unlikely you'll hit the break-even number, reconsider.
