		<description>Buy one Get one Free&#039;s are always wonderful but coupons don&#039;t typically work most excellent for a younger demographic. Maybe a special &quot;educational institute student night / college night&quot; promo would bring them in the door. You could start w/ franternities &amp; sororities &amp; offer member discounts if they show a membership card. Once you start getting the &quot;cool kids&quot; in, the others will follow.</description>

		<description>If you start out offering discounts, your clients will expect you to continue offering discounts.  The most excellent thing to do is some kind of value added offer.

A coupon for a free drink with meal.
A coupon for a free dessert with meal.
A buy one get on half off deal.
A buy two get one free deal.
A Taco Club Card, buy six get the seventh free.

The idea is that you want them to come in and buy something at full price.</description>

		<description>Stay away from discounts.  Use the value meal idea of your choice, depending on the caliber of your restaraunt.  Taco stand, free soda should do the trick.  Dinner house, free wine or dessert.   If you serve both lunch and dinner, make the offers at lunch time for educational institute students, and perhaps a family offer and senior offer at dinner.</description>

		<description>I would offer anywhere between 5-10% for 1 week or you also could offer a free drink with all orders over a certain amount but you can&#039;t make that amount to high lets say $3.-$5.and you could offer that for 2 weeks 4 times a year</description>

		<description>Maybe 15% or something if they are able to show you a educational institute student card or maybe consider starting a loyalty program like those cards you buy and the first 5 times you have to buy something or whatever and then on the 6th time you get something free.</description>

		<description>Frequent diner card work well. Get a database of your consumers by having them sign up for a frequent dining account. That way when ever they come they accrue points on their account after time they can trade them in for food. Birthday give aways and a educational institute student discount are also wonderful ideas.</description>
