Recommendations
It is highly recommended to continue attracting affluent experiential segment group. In order to continue to attract experiential, a bigger emphasis should be put on the wine selection. This group is kwon for high alcohol consumption (12% of the alcohol consumed at Red Lobster representing the second highest consuming group). Special wine menu with wide variety of wine selection should be introduced. And like the ‘fresh fish’ menu, the special wine menu should be offered to guests to compliment the wine of the day. This also would help Red Lobster to continue expanding without diluting their brand image. Because the original customers would enjoy what they like, and the new customers would have new wine selection to satisfy their needs. Also Red Lobster will benefit even more if they offer different menus at different locations. For example, in California they could offer slightly more expensive dishes and desserts as appose to the east side in the lower income earning areas where the core consumers will not like the changes at all and they only go there because of the fact that is “cheap seafood.”.
They definitely should continue remodeling all their restaurants inside and out to be able to compete and gain market share. Because it will attract new customers and the traditional customers will experience even greater pleasant experience because of the new re-modeled atmosphere. The promotion strategy benefits Red Lobster very much; therefore, they better continue offering promotions and coupons via their website.
