Fortunately, this isn’t a new problem and businesses worldwide have been innovatively grabbing customers’ attention for years.

5. Harry Reichenbach’s Invisible Fish
6. Or alternatively...
Of course, there’s also the possibility of a food-based USP, which commonly means an eating challenge. Although these are traditionally dominated by American businesses, the UK’s Go Burrito has slapped them in the face with 3 ½ feet of Mexican chow-down challenge.Their ‘sink the Titanic’ challenge is widely believed to be one of Britain’s largest and weighs in at 61lb! The business benefits are twofold. Not only do eating challenges bring additional customers to try their luck (who also bring friends!), but those who fail to finish foot the bill for an absolutely enormous meal, boosting any business’s coffers.
7. Nando’s Bruno Chicks
The Sydney premiere of Sacha Baron Cohen movie Bruno was upstaged by chicken restaurant Nando’s in 2009. Male and female models burst onto the red carpet before dousing themselves in Peri-Peri sauce and brandishing signs suggesting that “This year’s hottest chicks are covered in Peri-Peri”.The publicity was massive, if not entirely positive. The use of models was compared to longstanding bar chain Hooters and reinforced that certain businesses are still happy to trade on their staff’s appearances. Equally, Nando’s stunt reinforced the importance of personal appearance in modern marketing... but it worked and generated massive media coverage!

8. Some Like It Hot
We’ve looked at food challenges and ways of creating innovative menus, but what if your method of cooking is a marketable feature of itself? This is something which BBQ restaurants have been trading on for years, with ‘low n’ slow’ connoisseurs driving massive distances to find authentic smoke pits and smokers. In 2013, however, Holt Hotel took it a stage further!Two daring chefs from the Reykjavik hotel scaled a volcano named Fimmvorduhals and cooked a meal for intrepid diners over the 200°C lava! Whilst chef Sverrur Thor Hakonarson is adamant that the experiment won’t be repeated, Hollywood producers have been in touch. Meanwhile, other restaurants such as The Cauldron use open fires and Victorian ovens to recreate traditional flavours. Could your cooking be a key marketable feature?
9. The Art of Disloyalty
Does your business have to compete with the biggest chains? It’s something which clearly griped the owners of the Art of Tea in Manchester (UK), who hatched a widely replicated plan. Determined to combat the loyalty card mentality of competitors such as Starbucks, Costa and Caffe Nero, the Art of Tea went guerrilla!In short, if you hand in a stamped loyalty card from any other coffee shop, you can have any hot drink for £1. The scheme has already spawned copycats across the world and generated lots of positive media coverage for the little guy, so can you take on your industry’s big boys with a similarly humorous takedown?
10. Freakshakes
Whilst they aren’t a uniquely Australian phenomenon, freakshakes are rapidly becoming an Aussie favourite. In short, sumptuous milkshakes are topped with all the calories they can carry. This could include everything from whipped cream, sweets, entire donuts, dipping sauces and chocolate bars!Unfortunately, freakshakes are a competitive business and you need to go big or go home. Northbridge’s Babooshka certainly took this approach with their ‘triple doughnut choc bacon shake’ which piles everything from chocolate-dipped bacon to marshmallows and a social media sensation was born! Freakshakes are a relatively affordable way of adding something grandiose to your menu which customers will love to eat and love to share online.
However you choose to boost your business, there are plenty of proven methods to pursue. Experimenting with your food, drink, cooking and marketing can all provide a real financial boost without costing you a fortune. What’s more, Nisbets has thousands of products available for express delivery, meaning your marketing stunt can get underway almost straightaway.Brunch & shake vouchers now available! https://t.co/eIX2qM0mnV pic.twitter.com/TQGamaRXpS— Babooshka (@Babooshkacafe) December 8, 2016
My years of experience working in pubs and restaurants means I am always interested in the latest industry trends. If I’m not exploring interesting new eateries, I’m trying to mimic them at home!
