# Berliner Haus and Ciao Babe: Growth Plan

> The growth plan for Niko Diamantopoulos and his two Denver restaurants,
> Berliner Haus (German doner kebab) and Ciao Babe (Italian schiacciata
> and pasta), side by side at Avanti Food and Beverage, Denver. Prepared
> by Biz Dev App. One operator, one system: websites, traffic, one
> catering and food truck pipeline, direct ordering, and reviews.

## Who this is for
- **Client:** Niko Diamantopoulos, owner and chef
- **Businesses:** Berliner Haus and Ciao Babe
- **Location:** Avanti Food and Beverage, 3200 N Pecos St, Denver, CO 80211

## The two restaurants
- **Berliner Haus:** Berlin style doner kebab. Food truck fully booked,
  permanent stall at Avanti since September 2025. Menu anchors: Berliner
  Doner $15, Chicken $14, Falafel $14. 4.8 stars on DoorDash. Stall foot
  traffic inside Avanti is weak.
- **Ciao Babe:** Florentine schiacciata ($17 to $20) and Roman pastas
  ($15 to $19), opened June 25, 2026 in the stall next to Berliner Haus.
  Strong branding. Plated pasta format fights a food hall crowd that
  wants handheld food. Runway to prove viability is a few months.

## What we found
- Truck demand is strong; Avanti stall traffic is not.
- DoorDash volume is high but fees leave minimal margin.
- Berliner Haus website is thin (menu as an image, hours disagree
  across platforms). Ciao Babe has no website or domain of its own.

## The 90 day plan
1. **Foundation (weeks 1 to 3):** rebuild the Berliner Haus website,
   register and build Ciao Babe's own domain and site, one source of
   truth for hours and menus synced to Google, Toast, DoorDash, Avanti.
2. **Traffic engine (weeks 2 to 6):** Berlin to Rome passport across
   both stalls, cross promotion from Berliner's audience, in hall
   visibility, one joint SMS and email list.
3. **Pipeline (weeks 3 to 10):** one Biz Dev App CRM funnel for
   catering, truck bookings, and festivals; weekly corporate lunch
   outreach in LoHi and downtown Denver; automatic follow up.
4. **Margin (weeks 6 to 13):** direct ordering push, review capture,
   monthly scoreboard, quarter two plan from the data.

## Ciao Babe menu fix
Handheld first: schiacciata leads, pasta reformatted to travel, a Babe
Box for groups and offices, one entry item under $10, measured in a
30 day test.

## Pricing
- **Marketing and Lead Development: $600/month.** Both websites built
  and maintained, listings synced, social and SMS basics, review
  capture, monthly scoreboard.
- **Growth Partner: $1,000/month (recommended).** Everything above plus
  the full 90 day plan, the CRM pipeline, weekly outreach, direct
  ordering push, and weekly check ins.
- Month to month. Everything built is the client's to keep. Growth path
  leads to xRESTAURANTx and the full Biz Dev App ERP.

## How we organize everything
A private deal room holds the plan, proposals, and agreement. Invoices
run through the XODIAK blockchain transaction system when the client is
ready. Review now, sign and pay only when ready. Nothing is due today.
