1 Four Star Restaurant Marketing Cookbook Recipes for Restaurateurs What is it? Recipes for Restaurateurs is a restaurant marketing cookbook for restaurant owners and operators. It isn t a cookbook for preparing food in a kitchen; Recipes for Restaurateurs is a 300 page resource written in a reader-friendly format with over 100 field tested tips, tools and tactics of successful marketing recipes (marketing programs), ingredients needed, and directions (a tactical guide), to generate sales, create awareness and build any restaurant brand. Recipes for Restaurateurs chapters include: special occasion promotions to drive lunch or dinner sales, grand openings, publicity stunts, community relations and fundraisers, how to create and execute contests, holiday events, target kids and schools, and motivating and keeping employees. Why is it necessary? In 2008 the United States recorded 957,000 restaurants with a total of more than $552 billion in sales, 4 % of the U.S. gross domestic product and one of the nation s largest employers supplying jobs to 9 percent of the U.S. workforce, according to the National Restaurant Association 2008 Restaurant Industry Forecast. The restaurant business has become highly competitive and with consumers eating out more often, their ever changing demands and time constraints, it is imperative that restaurant operators have sales driving programs in place to get their share, says author, Linda Duke. The biggest challenge restaurant operator s face is creating, executing and tracking sales driving promotions, she continued. Recipes for Restaurateurs delivers applicable ideas, proven methods, and easy-to-follow instructions to get results. Although there are great debates about the percentage of restaurant start-up failures (those that go out of business), it is approximately 59 percent for a three-year period or six out of ten restaurants close within the first three years. Most restaurant operators are in need of an all encompassing guide a real tactical marketing toolkit, says Duke. We ve implemented hundred of these recipes for many restaurant operators. The more you do the better you get. We decided to put them in a book and they just became recipes for success. Any restaurant operator can execute the recipes within Recipes for Restaurateurs. They won t help you survive failure, they will make you succeed and prosper! Recipes for Restaurateurs provides dozens of sales driving promotions in a recipe format. Each recipe gives easy to follow directions to plan, coordinate, implement and track successful sales driving promotions. Recipes for Restaurateurs is a comprehensive restaurant business resource that operators will find very relevant. Patricia Cobe, Senior Editor, Restaurant Business Magazine. Recipes for Restaurateurs is comprehensive, easy to follow book of effective marketing strategies for restaurants of all sizes and types. It is a great tool for any restaurateur. G. Bric Haley, Chairman, California Restaurant Association. "The concepts and ideas presented in "Recipes for Restaurateurs" are probably the most important ingredients for a successful restaurant operation. I wholeheartedly recommend it as required reading for Restaurateurs, Culinary Professionals and Culinary Students." Mr. Ferdinand Metz, President Emeritus of The Culinary Institute of America, Certified Master Chef, Past President World Association of Chef Societies, James Beard Lifetime Achievement Award Recipient. - - cont d- -
2 There are very few books or case studies published which provide restaurateurs with the tools or how-to guide to develop restaurant-specific marketing programs, says Duke. This trademarked Restaurant Marketing Cookbook provides the author s real restaurant case studies and over 250 photos used throughout the cookbook to illustrate concepts and results. With actual restaurant results this cookbook assists readers in understanding how their own sales building programs can be easily executed. Linda Duke has been cookin up restaurant marketing programs for many years and has thoughtfully refined her list of ingredients for attracting and satisfying consumers and giving the media something to chew on. How well does she understand the restaurant industry? Well enough to realize that busy single and multi-unit operators or their harried staff will benefit more from a recipe type format for her marketing tips, tricks and techniques, than from the grand essays she could pen if she wanted to based on two decades in the brand, sales and loyalty building business. Alan J. Liddle, managing editor of conferences and special projects, Nation s Restaurant News. If there were a Master Chef for Restaurant Marketing, Linda Duke would be it! Like most Master Chef s, we can t wait for their recipe book of trade secrets to be published. It s here! What are you waiting for? Start cooking! Ty Sullivan, Director of Marketing, Café Metro NYC.

I like the way you ve set the book up it really does look like a cookbook. It s easy to read and comprehend, and yet it has real, solid information for marketers. It seems to me that the recipes would be of particular interest to restaurant operators who have only dabbled in marketing because they didn t really know how to go about doing it. Independent restaurant operators just starting out would benefit as well. And this also educates those operators who think marketing consists only of TV advertising. Good job! Gregg Cebrzynski, Marketing Editor, Nation s Restaurant News. It can be overwhelming to think of all the many ways in which we can reach our guests and communicate with them: from paid advertising, pr, community events, blasts. Recipes for Restaurateurs gives you the ingredients to ensure that you re always reinforcing your brand positioning whether you re increasing sales, attracting new guests or creating a special event. Aaron Noveshen, President of Pacific Catch Restaurants and The Culinary Edge. Recipes for Restaurateurs should be mandatory reading for all restaurant owners and managers. Ken Otto, Executive Vice President, Boston Pizza International Inc. I wanted to let you know how much I loved your book, Recipes for Restaurateurs! I am a soon-to-be graduating restaurant student and thought this was a great tool to have. I had concerns about my current restaurant marketing job and wow, did it help me! It gave me a new insight to the industry and presented tools in marketing that I would have never thought of. This should be one of our textbooks at school! It is definitely a must read for restaurant students and a great resource to have after graduation! -- Stephanie Rivoli, Event Coordinator, National Society of Minorities in Hospitality, San Diego State University.

At $99, we ve made Recipes for Restaurateurs affordable so it is accessible to the 957,000 restaurant operators and the hundreds of thousands of chefs, culinary professionals, students and entrepreneurs in the United States today. Other operations manuals for the restaurant industry are typically more than $99 each. The greatest investment a restaurateur will need to make is time & effort to execute these recipes. Tax, shipping and handling is additional. What makes the author an expert? Recipes for Restaurateurs provides the author s real restaurant case studies and photos which are used to illustrate concepts and results, and assist readers in understanding how their own sales building programs can be easily executed. Over the past twenty years, Linda Duke, the author s firm, Duke Marketing, has developed local store marketing programs for some of the top restaurant brands in the United States. Her specialty is consulting and teaching restaurant owners, chefs and operators how to apply marketing tactics to help accelerate restaurant sales, frequency and awareness. She has provided on-site coordination for over 200 restaurant openings and even more on-location events across the United States using these recipes. We ve learned how to create and implement turn-key programs that drive sales for just about any restaurant concept, and have put these programs into an easy to follow recipe format, Duke says. For more information on Ms. Duke, please see Author biography. What type of results can I expect? The recipes within the cookbook will contribute to increasing awareness, generating trial or new guests, increased frequency of existing guests, increasing check averages and increasing sales overall for any restaurant. Results will vary depending on how the recipes are implemented and more importantly the best marketing can ruin a bad operation. Meaning, if a restaurant s food, service and cleanliness are lacking, a great promotion or event that creates awareness and generates trial won t be successful. The unhappy guests will spread the word and damage the business. The best results will occur when the recipes are done at restaurants which have excellent food, service and clean operations. For the best results, begin with scheduling certain days and times for you and your restaurant team to focus on marketing. Restaurant operators have certain days the food is delivered and a schedule for labor, inventory and payroll. So why don t they schedule their time for marketing efforts each week? Recipes for Restaurateurs is an incredible resource for not only those looking to enter the restaurant business, but for those that have been running restaurants for years. Sarah Grover, Senior Vice President Marketing and Public Relations, California Pizza Kitchen. "As an industry trainer I have seen a real need for this type of marketing tool. Not only does it provide operators with ideas for exciting marketing opportunities, but also with a guide for training managers and staff on these techniques. I have had the unique advantage of participating in some of Linda Duke's "recipes" and can tell you from experience that they are fun, exciting and effective!" Kathie Griley, Director, Industry Education, California Restaurant Association Educational Foundation. This cookbook is a great format: Informative, Succinct and to the point, perfect for today s time crunched decision makers! George Katakalidis, founder, CEO, Daphne s Greek Café Restaurants. Recipes for Restaurateurs is a must-read for anyone opening a restaurant, whether it s your first or 1,000th. In a world where offering great food is not enough, Linda has cooked-up a wealth of valuable strategies, tactics and tools that are essential to stand out from your competition. Just add a little energy and enthusiasm to these easy-to-execute recipes and you will always have your plate full. Robert Andersen, President, Mooyah Burgers & Fries. Once you determine a recipe to execute, use an integrated marketing approach. For instance, add public relations, an blast, print and broadcast advertising and point of purchase materials along with an incentive program or contest for staff or franchisees. By combining all these ingredients together your restaurant sales will start to cook!
9 Overtime, the more recipes you and your team execute the easier they become. Staff will become effective repeating the components, and if recipes are done consistently over time, at least a period of a year they will garner the most rewards sales increases. These recipes are intended to be done over time. Not for a quick fix. However, there are recipes included in this cookbook which provide ideas for boosting guest counts or check averages, which can be implemented in a timely manner to solve particular challenges.
