CHICAGO, IL – August 3, 2007 – Rewards Network, a leading provider of marketing services and loyalty programs to restaurants, has just signed a contract with International Franchise Associates (IFAI) to market all Eatza Pizza Buffet locations. Earlier this year IFAI acquired the fast-casual chain to groom it for expansion. Ten Eatza Pizza locations are open currently, and IFAI plans to roll out 11 more by year end.
Explained IFAI’s Patrick Conley, “Our restaurants are spread across the country, making location-specific marketing very expensive. Rewards Network offers us the most effective and cost-efficient way to reach select markets coast to coast.†Conley said he’s equally impressed with Rewards Network’s business intelligence capabilities. “We’re counting on the customer feedback and traffic reports to help us monitor our locations and keep our expansion on track.â€
Eatza Pizza features an all-you-can-eat lunch and dinner buffet that delivers quality and variety at a very affordable $4.99 to $7.99 price point. The buffet includes more than a dozen specialty pizzas, along with an enticing choice of fresh salads, pastas, veggies, cheese breads, and homemade desserts. Catering to families, every location also features a spacious children’s play area with plenty of games and prizes to go around. Additionally, to accommodate groups and business meetings, Eatza Pizza’s new website at www.EatzaPizzaRestaurant.com includes a Pizza Party Planner for making reservations online.
Rewards Network President and CEO Ron Blake commented, “From Eatza Pizza’s standpoint, we’re the marketing and loyalty engine that gives them a competitive edge, driving members through the door and rewarding them for coming back again†Added Blake, “IFAI’s decision to work with Rewards Network is a clear indication of how committed the company is to ensuring each location’s success.â€
