Why should foodservice retailers think about Google?  Well its simple Millennials engage with their smartphones more than they do with actual humans.  In fact a recent study found that 39% interact more with a smartphone than with lovers, parents, friends, children or co-workers. Smartphones are hand held marketing tools.  Today every brand should have a hand held marketing tool kit.

Remember the ‘The World is Flat’ and ‘One on One Marketing’?  Well today when everything is digital and instantaneous hand held marketing solutions must be integrated into you long term plans.  “Consider that a study revealed that 51 percent of all mobile searches on Google are for restaurants. When people are searching on Google, they are interested in the product or service RIGHT NOW. They’re in buying mode, so as a business you want to be found and clicked on” that according to Google. 

All foodservice retailers must remember that 79% of all restaurant meals are sold at a Fast Food outlet according to The NPD Group.  Convenience stores, Grocery Deli’s, Restaurants must remember that hand held marketing is your direct link and 51% of all searches on Google are for restaurants.
