“Keep ‘em Guessing”If I was a special on FB’s menu, I’d be the Daily Special
because I like to try new things and keep people guessing.
“Sunny-Side Typa Guy”If I was an item on the FB menu I would be the sunny-
side burger because I’m a sunny-side type of guy.
“Take a Break”If I was a special on FB’s menu, I would be a
farm burger and root beer float combo. Whynot take a break while supporting local goods?

“Spice It Up”If I was an item on the FB menu I would be the pimento cheesefries. They’re a spicy twist on a classic side. I love finding new
out-of-the-box ways to spice up my daily routine.

Sustainability (and restaurant sustainability) is not as important to theseconsumers when making restaurant decisions. The same promotional activities were attractive to both consumer groups. The existing consumer base in Athens (or those we surveyed who havealready heard of Farm Burger) is a huge asset for current and futurecampaigns.
