“I'm a data analyst by background, studying systems engineering. When I opened Tacos My Guey, I brought that same mindset to the restaurant. I want to understand what's working, what isn't, and why. That's what made the early DoorDash experience so frustrating. I had the drive to dig in. I just didn't have the support to do it.”
Total sales generated through DoorDash
Average ticket lift — from $20 to $25
"Every time I tried to build a strategy, I was starting over with someone new. The revolving door of account reps made it impossible to get traction. I wasn't looking for a vendor — I was looking for a partner. And I wasn't finding one."
"Without consistent support, I couldn't trust that DoorDash was working for me. I had questions about my data, my menu, my performance — and no one who knew my business well enough to answer them. That erodes confidence fast."
"Eventually, I made a call. I paused the partnership entirely. It wasn't an easy decision — but I had to ask myself honestly: is DoorDash right for me?"
— Daniel Borrego, Owner, Tacos My Guey"I felt frustrated with DoorDash. I didn't feel, in that moment, the support I needed."

"After I paused, a DoorDash rep reached out proactively. She didn't just call, she came to the store. She listened to what hadn't been working and stayed engaged. That was the turning point. Not a product, not a promotion."
How it changed things
Rebuilt trust through consistent, in-person support
Gave Daniel a real partner to build a strategy with — not just a contact to call
"Once the relationship was solid, I could finally do what I'd wanted to do from the start — dig into the numbers. DoorDash's analytics let me map the customer journey, understand ordering behavior, and make real decisions about my menu."
How they used it
Analyzed the customer journey to understand what was driving orders
Used performance data to optimize the menu and pricing strategy
"The data pointed to a clear opportunity. By adjusting the menu based on what the analytics showed, we moved our average ticket from $20 to $25. That's not a guess — it's what happens when you let the numbers lead."
