Vote Grotto Pizza? that sounds cheesy
Article Abstract:
Grotto Pizza is exhorting people to "Vote Grotto Pizza" in a marketing campaign timed with the first day of elections. Over 50 campaign-style slogans were installed by the restaurant chain along US 202 and other sites in northern New Castle County in Delaware. As a finale to the promotional efforts, Grotto workers will be giving discount coupons on voting day. T.J. Healey, marketing consultant for Grotto, said coupons, which were distributed at sites that include St. Mary Magdalen Catholic Church, could be traded at the chain's Fairfax restaurant.
