Get Out Of The Branding Business

Get Out Of The Branding Business

The success of marketing your restaurant or franchised restaurant can be measured by how many friends you have made in your local community. It's really that simple.

It makes little difference if you are a pizza franchisee who is one of 300, or you are Mama's Pizza and an individual operator. You must network your local community to succeed. Period.

If you are writing checks for ads, if you are advertising on the local theater movie screen, if you have a radio spot, you are WASTING cash. This is true, even if you own a recognizable, branded franchise location.

The only brand you should be concerned with is your own. And the only way to build your own personal brand is to get out of your office chair, or from behind the bar and go into your community.

Leanne Hoagland-Smith
Are your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website
