One of the things that Red Lobster does,
that helps with building team atmosphere
inside the restaurant, is some of the promotions and contests
that we run.
Usually, every promotion, we run a contest dealing
with sales of some sort.
The team really gets excited when we do these things,
and the rewards are amazing that we offer.
We run add-on contests.
Things like who can sell the most drinks,
or who can sell these specific drinks?
Or we'll even play bingo, where we'll have drinks and do promo
appetizers, and promotional dinners and drinks,
and other things like that on there.
And if you can sell these many in a row, then you get bingo.
And you win, like, a free lunch, or something
like that, a gift card.
It's fun.
We do add-on contests.
We do guest survey contests.
And we try and motivate each other to do that.
Sometimes, we do the contest in teams.
Which is great, because it's like you motivate
your other team members.
Those are the ones that are really competitive.
Yeah, sometimes, it gets a little scary,
because we are competitive people.
But it does work out, and it makes our sales greater
and makes our add-ons greater.
It brings people in more, because we
get them excited to come in and we sell different things.
It gets people excited to go to work, and it motivates them.
I make money by meeting new people.
I work with my family.
Like, it's laughs.
It's fun.
It's like-- I enjoy what I do.
And can't nobody get mad at me for doing it.
It's all love.
And I love it, too.
So a big old happy family, and that's one thing about it.
That's why I love my Red Lobster.
