Lesson #1: Don’t Take Yourself Too Seriously
Newman once pictured his own epitaph as reading: “Here lies Paul Newman, who died a failure because his eyes turned brown.” He may be one of the most successful on screen actors of our time, but to hear Newman speak you would never know it. Indeed, despite his iconic status, Newman credits his ability to laugh at himself and his reluctance to take himself too seriously as the single largest factor behind his success today.

Turning up the Heat: Rachael Ray Is On Fire
The executives at Cowan and Lobel were not sure if hiring Ray to be the chef at their store was such a good idea in the end. Her prepared dishes were, after all, even outpacing the store’s grocery sales. But Ray had an idea to solve the problem.

Productivity
I worked in a grocery store as a youngster. The Depression was on, inventories were limited and merchants frequently ran out of stock items. As a result, the merchants would borrow from each other until their next shipment came in. I was the "runner" for our store and Charlie Scott was the "runner" for the store across the street.

A Sales Story That Will Gross You Out
was rapidly doing the math - thinking "OMG - this thing has to be almost 3 years old - maybe older!!!!" I'd been eating petrified mango/coconut goo. And all of a sudden - the little EXTRA that I had received from the grocery store - left me with a realllllllllly bad lasting impression of their store.

Promotional Products Industry History and Overview
The introduction of promotional products dates back around 200 years. They are of the view that this concept was originated when the then President George Washington created commemorative buttons for his campaign which were an instant hit. The introduction of this convention also goes to Jasper Meeks, a printer in Coshocton, Ohio, when he persuaded a local shoe store to contribute book bags embossed with the store name to local schools. Since then promotional products have become a rage among companies almost all over the world.
Local Store Marketing- A Process
If I can impress one key thought on a restaurant operator with regard to Local Store Marketing- it is this... ...Local Store Marketing must become a process NOT an event. By way of example, a trip to one high school to setup a fundraiser, only to have 12 people show up does not indicate that fundraisers are useless. That action only indicates that one attempt failed. A better approach is to attempt 3 fundraisers every month. The law of averages will favor the process. Most restaurant operators that struggle market out of negative emotions, they react and engage in random events of marketing madness that they hope will result in a home run. Plan multiple Local Store Marketing tactics for the year. Settle for base hits each month and you'll sleep like a baby.
LSM Is Catching Fire
If you happen to read the restaurant news magazines and internet articles, you will notice that many restaurant franchisors are "more than interested" in Local Store Marketing. They realize that the successful franchisees in their chain have demonstrated skill at building business through networking in their local community. And they have noticed that institutional advertising is largely in-effective and expensive. For experts and students of Local Store Marketing, the secret is that Local Store Marketing has been around for quite a while. Nothing is new in the LSM world for those who have practiced and studied the technique. If you read about a tactic or think of a new way to attract customers, chances are that I've seen it. If you own a restaurant and don't understand Local Store Marketing- get educated quick.
Organization Structure Limits or Liberates High Performance
The CEO of a national retailer was very frustrated. His face grew noticeably redder as he told me how he had set up each store as a profit center and was attempting to hold store managers and their regional managers accountable for profitability. But when a store under performed the store manager would show that head office buyers were forcing them into stocking the wrong merchandise for their particular mix of customers. Or they would claim that the marketers hadn't put together the right campaign for their local market.

Unearthing the truth about reusable fabric grocery bags
It doesn't take market research and online surveys to know that more and more people want to do their part to help the environment. Most environmentally aware citizens recycle. So bringing a reusable fabric bag when you grocery shop seems like a no-brainer. You'll keep plastic out of landfills. If fewer bags are made, less energy is spent producing them. And, if the grocery store charges for bags, you'll save money. But are US consumers embracing the eco-friendly grocery bag option as much as they have embraced the blue box? A recent market research study reveals the truth.
