3 LTO Ideas To Drive Sales This Fall

• Put a creative twist on a few of your menu items by renaming them something spooky. Feature them leading up to Halloween to drive guest engagement. For example, Chipotle has featured a “Boorito” in past years and Burger King generated a lot of buzz with their Halloween Whopper in 2015.
• Consider a “Trick or Meat” promotion that offers extra bacon on any burger.
  
• Everyone loves a costume contest. You can generate buzz by hosting a competition at your restaurant. It will provide tons of opportunities for social media engagement.

Create guest excitement by offering a unique pumpkin-themed burger. This recipe features a seasoned ground turkey patty served on a whole wheat bun with maple and pepper lacquered turkey bacon, herbed goat cheese, seasonal chicory, and a sweet and rich pumpkin and garlic aioli.

• You can build your social media following by offering $1 off for guests who show they’re a Facebook fan of your restaurant. 
• Celebrate National Sandwich Day with half off your best-selling sandwich. 
• Offer a free side with the purchase of any sandwich.
• Try this delicious, indulgent sandwich: The Mile High Meatloaf Burger. It features a meatloaf patty grilled to order and topped with creamy cheddar and chive mashed potatoes, fried onion rings and a brown gravy mayo.

• Encourage guests to dine with a friend with a “Give Thanks” promotion: buy one, get one on selected sandwiches.
• Offer a “Thanksgiving Feast” special that has a beverage, burger and side combo at a discounted price.
• Catering is a great way to generate new revenue. Consider offering catering discounts to entice new customers and supplement your regular income. 
• Take  advantage of the busy week of Thanksgiving and day after by offering a special on this unique harvest-themed burger. The Late Harvest Burger features a medley of fall flavors with seasoned pork patties, fresh apple slices, wilted kale and a caramelized leek, shallot and onion jam.
