| Tip of the Week: Take advantage of October festivities September 22, 2014 |
October is a great month to run several different types of promotions at your restaurant or foodservice operation, and also start planting the seeds for holiday parties. With Thanksgiving, the World Series, college and pro football games every weekend, and of course, Halloween, there are plenty of events to draw people to your operation. Once your customers have arrived for your October promotions, train your staff to ask the customers if they are planning any holiday parties, and then have them present your holiday party package. Follow up with any interested customers the following day or week to secure your bookings.
