Transcript

Restaurants should hand out instead of matchboxes? Number one, recipes. Don't gatekeep. Sharing is caring. Let me make this at home. Number two, vintage scratch and sniff stickers. I don't know why we ever stopped making these. I might put on my water bottle. I might put it on my laptop. But I want to sniff it. Make it something that smells good in your restaurant. Like chocolate cake. Number three. Postcards with art on the back. Let me send someone a note telling them how good your restaurant is. If not, flip it on the bad. Use the art as art. Number four. Fortune chocolates. Dove used to make these and they were really good. You'd shove the chocolate in your mouth and read a little something afterwards. It was tasty and educational. Say something cool. Say something funny. Maybe include a little recipe in it. Number five. Hire an artist. Hire an artist to sit in and see look at every single group who comes in to eat at the restaurant. Have them do a ten second little portrait of charcoal, whatever whatever. And then at the end of the meal, you give that portrait to the people sitting there. I don't know how realistic that is, but sounds really cool, and I would really want one after. I rest my case.
