The Ft. Lauderdale Sun Sentinel reports that a number of South Florida restaurants bearing the names of well known athletes have closed down.  The key for success, restaurant and sports experts say, is the right mix of good food and atmosphere, location and experienced management.

Each situation is unique. Some athletes lend their names and likenesses in exchange for a percentage of food and merchandise sales. Some become investors and have a say in the decor and menu. Others, such as Hall of Fame Miami Dolphins coach Don Shula—Shula’s Steak Houses, and former Dolphins Offerdahl Offerdahl’s Cafe Grills, and Bob Brudzinski
Bru’s Room Sports Grills, enter the restaurant business.

“It’s location, location, location for the rule of thumb for any real estate deal. And after that, it’s food, food, food,” said Tom Prakas, of The Prakas Group in Boca Raton, which specializes in restaurant brokerage. “The name adds the kicker, and gets them in the door.”

If you run in to a Salad Creations, try them out. Fabulous salad. Served in mixing bowl...and the salad is cold. Huge portion. This is fresh, fast and fabulous. I did three restaurant marketing workshops to a great group of interested and passionate about their business franchisees.

Restaurant Marketing: Did you ever think that the restaurants who coupon are couponing because it’s the easiest way to convince people to visit their restaurants? Isn’t there a better way to convince and persuade people, rather than giving some of your profit margin away? And the ones who redeem your coupons...are they really going to become your fans? What’s your value story? Are you not worthy? Then close the doors.
