CHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 05, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:BURG) (“Chanticleer” or the “Company”), owner, operator, and franchisor of multiple nationally recognized restaurant brands, today announced that its Little Big Burger brand has launched an app and loyalty platform.
Fred Glick, Chanticleer Holdings president, stated, “The new Little Big Burger mobile application features rewards, VIP tiers, and in-app ordering, customized around 8000 consumer interviews on what they want from a loyalty program at LBB, BGR and ABC.
“This, when combined with our new all-in-one customer engagement platform provided by Thanx, will help us leap forward with targeted email marketing and integrated customer feedback tools without buying and implementing multiple different technologies.
“With the launch of the app, we are offering consumers a free burger with the goal of driving 100,000 sign-ups this year. If we can get 15% of our guests in our loyalty platform and they all come in an average of one time more per month, it has the potential of resulting in approximately $3.2 million in sales and $1.1 million in cash flow.”
Nearly half of all LBB guests currently belong to a restaurant loyalty program. According to a 2017 report on Customer Loyalty Statistics from Businesswire.com and McKinsey Research Corp., restaurant loyalty club members spend an average of $2.14 more than other guests. 82% of loyalty club members referred at least one person while spending an average of 67% more on an annual basis than other guests. The industry average of active Loyalty Club members (Restaurant sector) ranged from 5% to 20% of total transactions.
In the near term, Chanticleer anticipates rolling out apps and loyalty platforms for its BGR – Burgers Grilled Right, American Burger Company and Just Fresh brands as well.
