You crushed your 2018 restaurant marketing goals and took some of the pressure off of customer acquisition in your restaurant by developing a winning customer retention strategy.
You mastered your metrics, created a restaurant forecast for the year ahead, engineered your menu for increased revenue, revisited your approach to inventory and purchasing decisions, increased your profit margins, and got your food and liquor costs under control.

You listened, learned, and leveraged these insights and skills to create a memorable dining experience for every guest who visited your restaurant or placed an online order.
