Marketing a Breakfast and Brunch Restaurant
Promotional tactics for breakfast and brunch restaurants are exceptionally diverse. But in our experience, there are a handful of tips and strategies that will deliver the best return for your marketing efforts.
If you are a business leader who sees marketing as a path to give your breakfast and brunch restaurant a competitive advantage you're not alone.
These days, most businesses are counting on the fact that their marketing plans will push them ahead of their competitors and deliver the best possible market share. With marketing pressure at an all-time high, your business needs to incorporate tactics designed to position a breakfast and brunch restaurant at the top of the heap.
Marketing Expertise
A lack of personal marketing experience is not an excuse for moving forward without the support of a promotional knowledge base. Owners of breakfast and brunch restaurants are usually hesitant to engage in high-risk marketing. Since inexperience raises the risk level, the quality of the marketer is just as important as the quality of the message. When in doubt, tap into either an internal or external knowledge base to design your company's marketing strategy.
Cost Tracking
The economy is a constant concern for people who own a breakfast and brunch restaurant. You can't afford to waste money on inferior marketing resources. Since every dollar counts, it pays to buy mailing lists from trusted vendors. Companies that rely on accurate mailing lists reduce time spent chasing down stale leads.
In addition to purchasing first-rate mailing lists, we advise our business partners to carefully track the costs and returns for each of their marketing channels. If a specific marketing channel fails to meet your expectations, consult with a professional marketing firm about how to make the channel more productive or eliminate it from your marketing mix.
Social Media Monitoring
The use of social media as a marketing tool is the latest wave to overtake the small business community. Combined with a functional company website, social media attracts new customers and converts them to brand advocates. Social media can quickly go negative, turning brand advocacy into "badvocacy", a scenario in which consumers and users create content deriding your company and your products. Most breakfast and brunch restaurants have too much at stake to ignore derogatory social media mentions. To counter negative social media, you'll need to monitor your brand's online presence and enter the conversation, redirecting negative discussions toward more positive topics.
