Default *Goofy* Disney Restaurant IDEA I am Selling to Local Owner

Thanks Gordon,

This idea is for You.

Might help some of the Local Biz Owners you were just talking about.

So.

Client walks into GOOFY'S Restaurant - FL Disneyland.
Wife and 2 kids.

10 yr old Son Orders a Pizza.

Waiter says, "If You Order a 2nd Topping our CHEF ARTIST will put a Face on Your
Pizza USING the 2nd topping."

AND...

The waiter keeps talking.

"When You Order a 3rd Topping. In addition to The FUNNY Pizza Face.

We will put your Name - Initials on The Pizza.

AND

WHEN you order The DELUXE PIZZA. Your son gets a Chefs Hat. And
he gets to come up and Chat with The Chef.

"And We Take a Color Photo with The Chef. Frame it.

"So You can make your FRIENDS Jealous.

ME - I am back.

2 Extra toppings is 25% More to the Price.

(EDITORS NOTE - I checked the price
of those paper White Chef Hats. Peanuts. So all Profit.)

Plus The GOOFY Restaurant manager said, "Amazing # of people order a Pizza to Go with THE Kids Initials and The Goofy face."

So that might EASILY double the size of the bill. Cuz you will have a WAR if you only put ONE Kids Initials on a Pizza.)

GENIUS!

Thanks,
Glenn

This little Trick will add some moolah for the
Independently owned Restaurants.

EZ to adapt to a Bakery.

Deli.

Paint Store. (Aussie Paint store aLready uses a Picnic Basket BRIBE)

Car Dealership. (#1 Salesman - Repeat buyers - He Just happen to drive by a Pizza Drive thru with The Prospects Name on a Pizza.)

Default Personal Pizzas and Other Baked Goods

Thanks Glenn for the Update !

Personal birthday cakes and other baked goods have been sold by bakeries for years, however, your "Goofy" tip is easily something that can be adapted in a number of places.

I can see large chocolate chip cookie cakes or just extremely large cookies with a message applied. Many supermarket bakeries make birthday cakes with custom frosting... however, most of them DON'T charge EXTRA for custom messages... just a special charge for birthday cakes. I can see the markets missing out by not applying what Glenn has mentioned here.

The key is selling the concept.

Using Jay Abraham's would you give me a quarter if I showed you how to make a dollar concept would work here.

Once again, a great concept from marketing money maven, Glenn Osborn.

Default Every Double Tree Hotel GIFTS You a Giant Choco Chip Cookie

I can see large chocolate chip cookie cakes or just extremely large cookies with a message applied.

Thanks Millard,

What makes Me Different from most Marketers is
I exclusively quote PROVEN Strategies.

Tested Ideas.

7 figure Systems.

A 600 Million Man I met at a 25K Jay Abraham event
EXCITEDLY told me about his discovery.

QUOTE

"If you ASK you can get another Free Cookie at the front Desk."

THINK about that.

The man owns a couple hundred Restaurants.

Is EXCITED to discover he can
get a Free chocolate Cookie every day.

Thanks,
Glenn

For any Entrepreneur reading this.

DID you know that all the Food Store BAKERY Divisions near me Cannot
make Chocolate chip cookies FAST enough to meet demand.

As a Consultant.

You can DOUBLE their Profits.

JUST Get them to make more cookies.

MANAGERS get paid based on store sales and they DON'T talk to their Employees.

SHEESH.

Default Making Chocolate Chip Cookies

Thanks for the tip Glenn.

However, all the stores around here are nationwide chains and don't deal with folks just coming up and saying make more chocolate chip cookies !

I would imagine that you could just go to a regular owner-operated bakery and offer some suggestions with one of them being to bake more cookies.... or offer other suggestions at no cost... then when they have made a few extra bucks, tell them to make more chocolate chip cookies.

The key for me has always been to just be friendly and offer some good, solid, money-making advice and then when an owner wants help, I am available to help. The owner always sees me as a friendly face who has been helpful and has their business' best interest at heart.
