How Their Online Experience Changed

Overwhelming fees
Cumbersome operations
Flat Sales
Aburaya’s reliance on third-party apps was costly. To make things worse, they weren’t growing his sales.
Complex Operations
Multiple apps made things complicated for their staff. They had to manage orders and update menus across different ordering systems.

+$40,000/m in direct online sales
+$100,000 saved in delivery fees
Excellent customer service
Huge Savings. Lower Fees.
In the first year, they’ve managed to save hundreds of thousands of dollars in fees from third-party delivery apps.
Growing Direct Sales
In just 30 days after switching to Owner.com, they went from flat $15,000 to over $40,000 direct sales per month; a 160% increase. And because these sales are from direct online orders, it means higher margins and more returning customers.
Seamless Online Ordering
The switch to Owner.com was quick and easy. Their new website is seamless to manage, saving them lots of time. In Hiroyuki’s own words, “Beep, and done!”
Why they needed to switch to Owner
Over-reliance on Third-party Apps
They used multiple third-party delivery apps like Uber Eats, Postmates, DoorDash, and Caviar.
High Fees and Low Margins
Fees from third-party apps were eating their margins, making it hard to run a sustainable business, let alone grow.
Great Customer Service
Hiroyuki and his team now enjoy proactive support on operations and marketing. They now have more overall confidence that they can run a profitable, thriving restaurant.
“The best part is your customer service. It’s so quick and friendly; if somebody asks me, I recommend Owner.”
