Grandparents Day

Grandparents Day is the first Sunday after Labor Day. Run a promotion
using your customer list to bring in the grandparents and give them
25%-50% off on their tabs if the kids bring them in.

National Cheeseburger Day - 18th

Run a special on cheeseburgers. Have a burger eating competition. Give
the first 50 people in the door a free cheeseburger - tied to restriction
where you still make a profit. Or you could come up with some new
cheeseburger recipes. Get online and look into 4-6 different kinds and
run them throughout the day.

OKTOBERFEST

Oktoberfest begins in September which the dates vary so I don’t
have a specific date for you, but this could be big for you if you
own a bar. You could do a big kickoff party with prizes and
contests. Get sponsors involved. I sound like a broken record
here but again, use Facebook’s Power Editor ad platform and
target beer drinkers. Target people who “like” pages related to
Oktoberfest.
At one of my bars we do a big outdoor music event and we bring
in all the Oktoberfest brews, we bring out a huge 6 foot chargrill
and do brats / burgers / sausage, and then we will bring in some live
music. Great event and the neighborhood loves it.

National Punch Day - 20th

Come up with one, two, or three different rum or vodka punches.
Partner with one of your liquor reps and see if they can give
you a deal on using a certain brand of vodka’s. Add some cool
refreshing garnishes to them and take pictures and blast them
all over Facebook and Instagram.

Perfect target market would be the ladies for this one. Run ads
targeting women with the image of the pics and a offer they
can’t resist!
