The holidays are a time of gathering with loved ones and celebrating the season - but they can also mean a very busy time for franchise&nbsp;restaurants.&nbsp;Restaurant&nbsp;Hospitality&nbsp;recently provided insight in ways that&nbsp;restaurant&nbsp;operators can keep their teams motivated and stress levels low during the holiday season.&nbsp;

&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve discovered that creating a fun and engaging service or marketing challenge is a huge win for our managers during the holidays,&rdquo; Courtney Beach, director of Pita Pit&rsquo;s corporate store division, told&nbsp;Restaurant&nbsp;Hospitality. &ldquo;This year, we&rsquo;re featuring a Catering Bingo contest, where various prizes will be given to operators who successfully market to certain businesses or sell particular catering items. The goal is to get multiple Bingos on a card, or even blackout the card entirely. It&#39;s a positive way for all of us to come together for some fun and positive competition.&rdquo; 

Additional tips for motivating staff during the holidays includes scheduling with team members&#39; friends and family in mind, having fun with uniforms, and getting involved in the community as a team.&nbsp;

&quot;We celebrate the holidays with our team members by offering flex days,&rdquo; Michael Mabry, COO of MOOYAH Burgers, Fries &amp; Shakes told&nbsp;Restaurant&nbsp;Hospitality. &ldquo;For instance, we closed the office the&nbsp;Wednesday&nbsp;before Thanksgiving and the Monday afterward, and we have additional flex days in December so that team members can recharge and spend time with their friends and families.&rdquo;&nbsp;
