Restaurants Are Not a Zero Sum Game

I had the pleasure of participating in a Chandler‘s Local Bites meet up last week. Local Bites allows local Chandler restaurants to get together and solve problems they face and increase awareness for their businesses. They had a panel with @jessharter, @skinnyjeans, @hdellc and Randy Walters (Pittsburgh Willy‘s). The best part was watching them as they worked together for the greater good of all restaurants in Chandler.

These guys get that it is not a zero sum game. They understand that someone will not eat at the same restaurant for every single meal. Furthermore, they understand the more awareness of restaurants in close proximity a diner has, that the more likely they will go to that destination to seek food on a regular basis. I wish that other zero sum game communities would recognize this and collaborate more often. I look forward to more good stuff to come from this group and was glad to participate.

It was nice to see @santanbrewing, @corkchandler and @florindino‘s all there and joining the discussion. I think this group has a lot of potential to get the word out on great eats in Chandler.

See Dave.. I’m talking about stuff I’m doing now. Thanks for calling me on carpet to do it more!
