Takeaways:
Technology Engagement – As the Restaurant landscape is changing, customers are less likely to accept costs being bypassed down to them. For Popmenu’s Brendan Sweeney, the restaurants who will continue to thrive are those who will find a way to adapt to the times, while still offering great food and service.
Benefits of Industry Events – Industry events like the National Restaurant Association Show, helps Tony Roy and company rub elbows with industry leaders and allows others to see the innovation that Popmenu has to offer.
AI Driven Content Calendar – Popmenu’s AI-driven content calendar simplifies digital marketing for restaurants by pre-populating a month’s worth of social posts, emails, and texts based on their business activities. The generated content consistently outperforms manually created material, making it a faster, cheaper, and more effective solution.
