IHop getting roasted over new IHob campaign

[ucfsky]

Whoever came up with this marketing strategy shit the bed, like I imagine someone who gets a burger from IHop does shortly after eating it.

This was terrible from the moment it was announced. They would have been better to announce "International House of Breakfast" and gone for specialty breakfast menu's from around the world each month.

wrong. You are talking about it and giving them free publicity. I'd say they nailed it.

Who would have any idea IHOP was getting in the burger game if not for this? No one can tell me the menu change at Applebees. This worked.

I was in an ihop a couple months ago while on work travel and quickly reminded why I don't go to ihop. Although Chemmie may oblige, I prefer breakfast without roaches and hobo piss.

If you live somewhere nice your all businesses are nice and clean so I can't relate to having hobo piss in my restaurant but I imagine that would be gross.

My chance of going to eat their burgers is higher now than it was yesterday.

I have a Metro Diner beat me, so if I want breakfast out it all my business pretty much goes there or First Watch. Keke’s Is good but too damn expensive.

I think IHOP's problem is that lunch and especially dinner revenue can be HIGHER than breakfast...but most look at IHOP as a breakfast joint and won't go there for lunch or dinner.

Golic and Wingo must have talked about this for 20-25 mins today....they hated the name but gave them plenty of free pub.

How did you convince your Metro Diner to beat you? Did that cost extra?

I'm guessing it was a free, unsolicited beating. He probably went in disguised as Chemmie or Ninja.

Holy shit you are a pathetic little child. So obsessed.

It’s their new advertising campaign. Get hit by a frying pan, get a free breakfast.

More effective than Ihob.
