Most popular joint in town, at least once a month for me..
They too win best of each year..

Restaurant gets free tables and some perk$

I don't clean their carpet but so far he hasn't contacted the table company.

Exclusivity would run 5kish


Two year exposure




Thoughts?

Have you ever bought anything from a tabletop/menu/etc ad?
Which companies (not CC) do you remember seeing on them?


I'm not sure I would do it expecting to recover/profit so that leaves brand awareness.


Example?
What would be the plan/design (game/puzzle/facts?) to increase the engagement with the ad so it isn't just background no one sees??

It would have to be pretty darn creative Mike.

You'd do better to pay a local character the money to walk up and down the street with a sandwich board and a big bell crying out "By Crikey Call Mikey"!

I know of no one who has done well with this sort of thing.

it took me a second to figure out although I have seen them

It isn't just something on the table...it is the table


mike wants to furnish his local eatery with tables that only have his ad

guess he could bring his biz buddies in too

Local greasy spoon here still does tabletop ads. Typically has all the well known mom and pop local businesses on it, they also do the paper placemat ads too. Some ads larger than others of course and sometimes you'll see a new company pop up on them. I look it at because, well I'm a business owner, and notice these things. I don't think the general public know they change out every so often unless it is brought to their attention. The older crowd might, but most people have their phones out when they're waiting for their food and don't pay attention.

You'd probably be better chumming it up with them and figuring out something that benefits the both of you. Or ask to put a business card display by the register.

How many tables are in this place and what type?

5K to be jumbled in with a bunch of other ads but be the only cleaner?

Why are y’all ignoring Hoodledink?
He’s no more idiotic than the rest of you are.


I love Hoody but that boy is as flaky as a fresh croissant..


I'd lean on him to advertise here but I don't want the "Where's Hoody" phone calls.



NOBODY in their right mind does websites or SEO for carpet cleaners.

You'd Probably get more just eating at peak times with your s*&^ van outside.

Diner meals should not be much more than $10 each unless you live in a high cost of living area. $1000 will buy about 100 meals or 1 meal per week fro 2 years. I think the van outside would attract more attention than the table top.
