Barbeque Concept Famous Dave’s Partners with Punchh to Deliver Rewards App

The storied BBQ franchise Famous Dave's—which offers everything from wood-smoked and off-the-grill entrée favorites to cheese curds and blackberry BBQ-griddled pork, all expertly curated by the founder and BBQ Hall of Famer "Famous Dave" Anderson—recently announced the rollout of a new rewards app via a partnership with Punchh.

The app can be accessed via any smartphone or through the Famous Dave's website and Guests will receive a free sandwich or burger when they initially download the app. Guests receive one bone for every $1 spent at Famous Dave's. When a Guest accumulates 100 bones, they unlock $5 in rewards, redeemable at any participating Famous Dave's location. The app also will feature info about promotions and insider news.

The app offers benefits to both Guests and the brand. For Guests, the app confers rewards for, and recognition of, their loyalty; offers exclusive insider news and special offers; includes social media sharing and bonus referrals as well as a location for valuable Guest feedback. For Famous Dave's, the app provides clarity on Guest segmentation and thus allows for the opportunity for strategic Guest engagement. Furthermore, the app will bring value to Famous Dave's leadership and marketing teams by providing consistency as the unified program for the entire franchise system, and per the app's intuitive-use structure.

"This app provides a necessary dual service," said Famous Dave's COO, Geovannie Concepcion. "It rewards our loyal Guests who are so important to our success, and secondly, the app helps franchisees continue to innovate and advance their offering." Read news here.

The launch of the new app was the final piece of a landmark year for Famous Dave's and the brand is heading into 2019 with a revamped menu, sleeker restaurant design option and technology innovation aimed to simplify and improve operations. Continue reading.

"We introduced third-party delivery and online ordering via our website in 2017, all of which were focused on improving the convenience and positivity of the Guest experience," Concepcion said. "In 2018, we focused on streamlining those channels and listening to what additional offerings we could bring to the table to improve our Guests' experience."

Famous Dave's CEO, Jeff Crivello, echoed that statement.

"We need to make sure we position ourselves in the best possible way to reach the younger and technology-focused segment of our target market," Crivello said. "Our advancement as a company depends on innovation and equipping our franchisees with the best technology available to drive their success. We think the Punchh partnership and the reward program will be just the right way to usher in 2019."

In an effort to minimize cost and to prioritize preferred Guest experience, Famous Dave's is also currently considering the introduction of delivery-only locations. These locations would still offer the same fan-favorites as Famous Dave's full-service locations, but would cut down on wait time considerably.

"It's an exciting time for us," Crivello concluded. "We are positioned for further innovation and success in 2019, and we are all energized to see what else Famous Dave's can introduce to better the experience of our loyal Guest base."

About Famous Dave's:
Famous Dave's of America, Inc. (NASDAQ:DAVE) was founded by 'Famous Dave' Anderson, whose passion for BBQ led him on a 25-year cross-country trek to find the best regional BBQ recipes in the country before opening the first Famous Dave's in Hayward, Wisconsin.

A Natural Partnership

A partnership between the Oregon-born beef jerky brand and the state's most dynamic professional sports team, which embarks on its ninth season in Major League Soccer in 2019 after advancing to its second MLS Cup in four seasons in 2018, seemed like a natural fit to Robert Leary, Old Trapper's Director of Marketing and Communications.

Major League Soccer is growing so quickly that it just made sense to partner up with our local team!

"Their commitment to a championship-level product and the larger fan experience is second to none, and closely mirrors our own business philosophy. Plus, they are champions and demand the best jerky anywhere — partnering with fellow champions, in MLS and Beef Jerky, was the smart play for all of us!"

Staypineapple Says It's Okay to Leave Your Four-Legged Friend in Your Room

There's no need to ruff it without your furry friend. At Staypineapple they love ALL dogs! And especially love it when you choose to Staypineapple with your favorite companion!

Read here.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/the-npd-group-reports-fragrance-trends.html

Staypineapple knows a trip is better when the whole family takes part in the fun. That's why they've created a hotel stay that ensures your pup is as comfortable as possible. They also understand that even though you brought Fido along, you can't take him everywhere. So they created special door hangers for just such an occasion. "Staypineapple is committed to the well-being of all animals. We prioritize making our hotels 100 percent dog-friendly," said Michelle Barnet, president, and CEO of Staypineapple.

Staypineapple wants you to know that it's okay to leave your fur baby in the room while you go exploring. Just use the appropriate door hanger on your way out. If you and Fido go exploring together please hang the "My Dog Is Out Exploring (please clean my room)" sign on the door. They'll be right in to tidy up.

If you go exploring without your best friend please place the "My Owner Is Out Exploring (please go away)" sign on the door. This informs Housekeeping to not disturb Fido's nap. Upon your return use the Everything Button to contact the Front Desk to arrange service during typical housekeeping hours.

While you are out exploring Fido can take advantage of the pup perks every Staypineapple dog guest receives

And you can even save a few bones when you Staypineapple with Fido by booking the Pineapple Pup Package.

Along with being the most dog-friendly hotel on the block, Staypineapple also enjoys celebrating all things furry on social media. Their mascot Dash the Pineapple Pup, hosts an annual costume contest with the winner taking home a complimentary stay at any of their nationwide hotels.

About Staypineapple

Based in the Pacific Northwest, Staypineapple represents a brand of ten privately owned and managed hotels in Seattle, Portland, San Diego, San Francisco, Chicago, Boston, and New York City.

The Devil's in the Details: Hidden Caveats in Web Hosting Discovered by RateMyHost

Hosting a website online has become a necessity for most businesses, startups, and entrepreneurs. With a wide variety of hosting platforms and companies to choose from, each offering different plans, price points, and features, it seems easy enough to find a well-suited hosting package and sign up immediately.

As a business grows, so too does its website, often requiring more resources or different features than a particular plan can support. This disparity is eased by plan upgrades, addon services, and even switching to a different hosting platform.

But this may not be profitable, or even possible, depending on the chosen host. Most web hosts have hidden caveats, fees, and rules buried in the Terms of Service, which the account holder would have already agreed to during the sign-up process. This disproportionately affects small businesses and non-profits who do not have teams on hand to hammer out contracts, or the spare funds available to pay whatever fee the host has set. Some hosts may even hold a website hostage, refusing to allow the transfer or download of data until all fees and conditions have been met.

Read this here.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/proshred-arizona-announces-pilot.html

For example, newer hosts like Wix and SquareSpace use proprietary builders and software. This makes the creation of a website simple and streamlined, but leaves little room for users who wish to transfer elsewhere or explore their options. Websites built with proprietary software cannot be transferred anywhere else, since no competing platform will be capable of supporting the same software. Even with hosts like Weebly, who allow other companies to offer the Weebly builder to their clients, will not allow the transfer of a website, even if both hosts support Weebly. This makes transferring completely impossible without a complete rebuild of the website - something most small businesses don't have the budget for.

Even if you avoid proprietary website builders altogether, traditional hosts can still put up roadblocks to the easy movement and complete management of your website. Hosts like FatCow, Dreamhost, and iPage use proprietary control panels, software required for users to manage and set up their websites. While this does not eliminate the possibility of transferring, it can lead to complications or incomplete transfers, since common control panels such as cPanel cannot properly decode websites created through a proprietary control panel.

Read this for more information.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/eat-2-win-sports-nutrition-app-fills.html

Even users who stick to cPanel and build their sites in universally-supported HTML can experience major issues with hosting companies. Regardless of the control panel or structure of a website, the ability to take backups should be universal, but some hosts will either refuse access to backups for transferring users, or block backups altogether, leaving the website trapped on their hosting platform. Click here to read the latest news.

Most of these problems can be avoided by sticking to common software and maintaining a good backup policy on the user-end, but many hosts still have hidden fees or rising rates coded into their terms. Although raising prices between sign-up and renewal is an industry standard, the rate at which those prices increase varies wildly. HostGator's rates nearly double between sign-up and renewal, and BlueHost's rates almost triple. iPage will not only surprise you with a renewal bill four times more expensive than what you paid for sign-up, but tack on a $50.00 fee just to cancel your service with them. You'll have to pay iPage if you want to stop paying iPage.

These hidden terms and fees aren't exclusive to one host, either. A staggering number of hosts are actually subsidiaries of a conglomerate called EIG, who has their own core set of policies and price hikes they expect their subsidiaries to adhere to. This means that even if you manage to transfer away from one host, you could be transferring to another host owned by the same parent corporation, with startlingly similar terms and conditions.

With so many issues hiding in plain sight (albeit in a 10 point font,) many small business owners or non-profit directors may be looking for alternatives to hosting a website. While that is definitely an option, and can work if the circumstances are just right, the hosting industry still has some straight shooters with fair pricing, user-first policies, and upfront terms and conditions.

Both GreenGeeks and HostMetro offer introductory rates of $2.95 per month. GreenGeeks is a great choice for people or organizations aiming to protect the environment, while HostMetro offers fixed rates (at $2.95) for the more budget-oriented clients. LiquidWeb only offers fully-managed hosting, which is expensive, but well worth the price considering the host will fix any and all problems with your website, instead of causing more. WebHostingPad also scored high marks in both flexibility and honesty for a shared host, especially considering their $3.49 per month rate for renewals, which is second only to HostMetro's fixed-rate $2.95. Be alert to the latest news.

Finding a good hosting company is possible, it just takes a concerted effort, detailed research, and time. Luckily, people looking to launch a new website or transfer to a new host don't have to start from scratch. RateMyHost has already done most of the work, poring over Terms of Service, cold-calling support lines, and ironing out the details into summarized reviews and rankings.
