According to research, to the mind seeing images of food is the same as seeing the actual food! The power of a great image on a restaurant’s social media
“Story is what makes us human, not just metaphorically but literally. Breakthroughs in neuroscience reveal that our brain is hardwired to respond to story; the pleasure we derive from a tale...
The experience of something is personal. Often filtered through one’s beliefs, expectations, memories and opinions. The experience of something is not the creation or curation of space, time and sensory stimuli – done so by a restaurant, a venue, an organization. The experience of something is what the goer, attendee or participant experiences as a result of being in (and have gone through) a designated space, over time, having at least one of their senses stimulated.
Menu items with good descriptions outsell others by 27%. Descriptions that use expressive language that paint a vivid picture in the minds of consumers have a powerful effect on purchase decisions.
It is nearly a 100% certainty (as long as a table is available) when someone comes into a restaurant they will purchase something. The question then becomes ‘what will they order, and how much will they spend?’. From an operational perspective, what impact will their purchase make on the restaurant’s profitability.

Like in pruning, a gardener will always take away, that the plant might produce more fruit, not less.
Southern Comfort had spent nearly $8 million last year on traditional marketing – TV and Print. Now, their entire budget has moved online; facebook, hulu, etc. Pretty impressive toshift funds without partiality. What’s more interesting is what did an alcohol brand see online that attracted them?
The problem is that we’ve set our emotions on a throne and made them King. “Don’t offend, always reciprocate, be politically correct, neutralize the deposition, etc.” – these prerequisites govern the everyday thoughts, speech, and behaviors of so many people online and offline.

What if Starbucks termed their drink sizes as Small, Medium, and Large. How would this alter our brand perception of Starbucks.

Give this a quick thought: Big-brand retailers are plastering the apperal they sell with their brand marks, logos and slogans. Why are consumers not demanding advertising fees for wearing the brand-marked apparel?
It’s not that difficult to put a little extra effort into a piece of information that is more critical than who you are and what you do. If you’re unreachable, all of the bells and whistles on your product and service are irrelevant.
A colleague of mine made an interesting point regarding the current state of the market, particularly the tens of thousands of layoffs we are seeing. The point is this - there is no real evidence...
Without a clear and well-defined goal you, your team, and your organization will greatly suffer. Where there is no vision, the people will perish. Here’s a simple way to develop a successful marketing campaign.
When you reach for the stars you may not quite get one, but you won’t come up with a handful of mud either. What happened to setting audacious goals; outrageous goals that are followed by mockery and laughter by others, including your friends. Think about it. Who and what is standing in the way of you achieving the impossible? Every highly successful person has this mindset. You will only be as successful as you see yourself.
There’s something we need to realize; those in traditional media are just as concerned about maintaining business as any other industry, and therefore are willing to offer great deals, discounts and incentives to keep their clients. There are deals being made that were previously unheard of. But you need to ask big and not budge.
Design is solving problems. When a problem is solved, progress is made. As creative leaders, we are in positions to contribute solutions to our society; whether we are freelancers, working in...
If you’re in fifth grade, I suppose it’s perfectly OK to critique with terms like “I like it” and “I Don’t Like It”. But if you hold a position as a creative professional and your vocabulary is comprised of these selfish terms, please – get out of this industry. Are are by no means contributing anything useful to the world of communication.
You are a problem solver. Problems are never solved with a subjective mindset. Your personal feelings, tastes and opinions are fruitless.
A great statement by the legendary George Lois. If you are looking to come up with a great idea, start talking to yourself. Turn the computer off and engage in a dialog with yourself or your creative group. Spend time with the idea, shaping it with words. The visual step will be much easier. And, you’ll have a powerful end-product.
