Memorial Day Weekend marks the official start of grilling season, and Tuesday, May 28th, is National Burger Day! Make the most out of your marketing budget by celebrating this fun holiday with your customers. Here are a couple ideas to get you started:
Offer a special on burgers for National Burger Day. Especially if you are known for your burgers, doing a beer/burger pairing or a specialty burger will give your customers a better reason to come in and celebrate with you, and give them a reason to come to you instead of the competition.
Let people know about your special! Some great, cheap marketing ideas include social media posts, a newsletter, and working with a local blogger to let them know about National Burger Day and why they should come in to celebrate with you.
Use hashtag #nationalburgerday on Instagram to get your post trending and make sure that people notice it!
Have fun! Videos with your staff on social media, a contest to see who has the best burger picture, and sharing your favorite burger recipe are all great ways to push your special in front of a larger audience and get your customers talking about your special - and about you!
Make a list! If National Burger Day is a success for you for marketing, look ahead for the year and pick out a couple other national days to market. It’s easy, fun, and a great way to get people talking about your restaurant.
