What Happens If You Don’t Go? A Marketing Disaster Story
It starts small. You miss the Restaurant Marketing Workshop because you think, “Eh, I’ll just catch the recap later.” But there is no recap.
Now your competitors are out-marketing you.
- Your email campaigns? Suddenly, they’re all in Comic Sans.
- Your Instagram engagement? Lower than a basement speakeasy.
- Your paid ads? Targeting the wrong audience—now you’re a local hit among retired dentists in Ohio.
Meanwhile, the people who did attend?
They’re using the frameworks, playbooks, and tactics we shared to win customers, increase engagement, and drive revenue.
The worst part? Someone from your team walks into your office and says, “Hey, I think we should start marketing on MySpace.”
See what we did there? We took the same core message and gave it a fresh, engaging spin.
And that’s a marketing tip for you—your best content doesn’t need to be reinvented, just remixed.
**Pro-tip** - Want a marketing trick on how to get more creative with your creative? Build a relationship with ChatGPT! Once it understands your brand voice, you can give it your creative copy and ask it to remix it any way you want... like a disaster story! 🚀
At the Restaurant Marketing Workshop, I’ll show you how to take your existing content and elevate it effortlessly using frameworks that make marketing easier, not harder.
Don’t let your marketing become a cautionary tale. Grab your ticket now. 😉
See you in Indy!
