Denny's is targeting the college crowd with late-night specials and promotions

Denny's Targets College Kids with Late-Night Campaign

Apr 9, 2007 6:05 AM, PROMO Xtra, By Amy Johannes

Denny’s is testing a new campaign targeting the college crowd to promote its late-night menu and service.

The casual dining chain is running a new promotion in two markets, Austin, TX, and Syracuse, NY, to motivate college students to visit its restaurants between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. The pilot program sets the stage for a larger rollout to other markets this fall.

“One of our missions for 2007 is to treat each day-part as a specific business,” said Michael Polydoroff, director of sales promotions and licensing for Denny’s. “Late-night is one. We wanted to create a marketing and promotions program that targets what we know are our predominate late-night visitors—college kids.”
