Holiday gift cards are a winner for restaurants - about 52% of consumers buy them and consumers usually spend more than the card's value when used. Learn some tips on taking advantage of this revenue win.

Marketing idea #2 - For food & beverage brands (adult beverages in this case) ⬇️ I recently discovered BRĒZ, a cool brand that makes non-alcoholic, microdosed drinks. So here's a marketing idea for 4/20, which is also their birthday (that's good marketing!). I used TikTok in this example since they have a decent following there. But in retrospect, I'd make it social network agnostic and use the same link across all social networks unless you need to collect social usernames. The gist: Followers take a quick quiz to discover their new fav flavor for a chance to win a $420 gift card. Benefit: Customers get exposed to what Brez offers, including the perfect one for them, and Brez gets contact deets + product preferences for future marketing, informing product development, etc. Let me know what industry/brand to do next.

Are You Tired of Cheese Sandwiches? There’s an old story that goes like this: Two guys are sitting together at the work site, eating their packed lunches brought from home. One guy unwraps his sandwich and cries out “Cheese sandwiches again! Why must everyday bring cheese sandwiches?!” The other guy, puzzled, asks: “Why don’t you ask your wife to fix you something different?” First guy answers: “I pack my own lunch.” Does this sound like you/your business but you just don’t know how or what to change? Clearly for some, change isn’t always easy. For the rest, change is inevitable…in fact it’s a constant reality that affects how you plan, what you do, and how you react to conditions on the ground in your marketplace. NEXT WEEK’s No B.S. Marketing Meeting is about being the catalyst to change so that you are operating from a pro-active position.
