The link to Kevin's video is not correct. Please fix so we can watch! Keep up the good work, team.

Jeffrey Molander replied to Michael Biesemeyer's discussion 'Does the sustainable food movement pose a threat to the restaurant community?'
No comments?? I think that to argue that his viewpoint is too "far to the left" (does that mean out of mainstream??) is to confirm that restaurant food is not real food. The fact that this question is being posed (and not to take personal…

Hi, Emerald... Thanks for sharing. I often wonder, though, about the opportunity digital marketing presents us with. Is it merely to discount? I do like Cheesecake's preview concept. That adds some excitement. If you know of other examples…

I love the idea that they gave Facebook customers something they wanted "unfriending" and a reward. Brilliant use of social media!

Great example Jeffrey! The Cheesecake Factory also gave us an example of using social media and tracking the ROI this past week. They offered FB fans a preview to their National Cheesecake Day, July 30th. By printing out a coupon from their FB…

Burger King used Facebook to drive provable, profitable restaurant sales (and so can you)

At first glance, Burger King's Whopper Sacrifice campaign looks like a simple coupon promotion. But consider the layers of qualitative value provided to Burger King and its customers. Now the program looks ground-breaking. This short case study teaches restaurant owners and employees how to create real, prove-able results with social media tools like Facebook and Twitter. Not "buzz" nor "conversation" nor "engagement" nor even preference. Sales.In this 7 minute video I capture the essence of…See More

Nope. It just means that I have expectation of my time spent within the friendly confines of FohBoh. I expect that I might pick up a lead on a piece of business here, yes. Or I might discover a case study for my lectures and book. So far I'm…

Oh -- and to be clear, everyone is entitled to their hobbies and passions. As an example I fish. But there's a lot more fishing than there is catching involved. But I still fish nonetheless. For the pure enjoyment of it. But I don't fish…

Hi, Michael... Darn social media stalkers ;-) Great question. I don't engage in anything that doesn't have a measurable financial ROI. I rarely experiment in hopes of producing revenue as part of "exciting times" or hopefulness.…

Hi, Josh... Many thanks. . Yes, Jim is a good friend and respected colleague. He's one of the original "good guys" in my opinion -- a fighter for truth and *business outcomes*. His book is great stuff! Nice to know you. Jeff

Richard... I just previewed a 4 part series on 2000 years of history -- and what it teaches us about social media today. If you watch here (or just at SocialMediaToday.com in general) you can read it in days ahead. The author is rather well-known,…

Hi, Emerald... Indeed. Again, I'm not disagreeing with any of you on the point of "payback." You are expecting one. In that your stated use involves a qualitative outcome -- an authentic assessment of customer outcome. Did they have a…
