Steakhouse Maloney & Porcelli, headquartered in New York City, has taken the concept of 'Cooking the Books" to a new level.

In a brilliant, stealthy move to engage their customers, create a buzz for their restaurant, and demonstrate that corporate fraud knows no boundaries, these folks have dreamed up an on-line "expense-a-steak" calculator that allows corporate suits to expense their Filet Mignon with fabricated receipts.

You read this correctly. This is genius marketing.  Simply enter the total amount of your restaurant bill, and the Maloney & Porcelli app will fabricate bogus receipts for the HR Department.

You Can't Rely on Word-Of-Mouth Anymore

There's never been more resources at operators fingertips to help them market and promote their business.  Not all  new technologies work for everyone, and in some sense, we are still only as good as the last meal we've served.

However, the Marketing and Promotions Blog tells the stories of real food service professionals and how they market their business. LocalFoodService.com is committed to teaching you how to leverage the internet.  It's not just some marketing jargon.  We live it everyday.

We invite marketing pros, advertising specialists, owners, operators, promotions people, association executives to share their knowledge on this topic.
