How Do I Get More Customers To My Deli And Catering Business. Should We Target Businesses Or Local Residents?

Hi there,
We own a small deli and would like to know how to effectively market it to bring in more catering business. We have tried mailing our $5.00 coupons via fist class mail to some business, this is working (slowly but surely), however, we would like to expand and grow our business more. We also place a small ad in the local paper every week. Would post card direct marketing be effective? Thank you kindly for your time.

Why Does Local Produce Cost More Than Imported?

I thought the whole idea was for people to buy local and fresh during the summer so why are are these supermarkets pushing horrid imported produce and a fraction of the price of local? (eg. FRESH strawberries local $4.99/qt. sit rotting while imported sells for $1.49? Nothing to do with cost to grow either…just a selling ploy as local is cheaper that supermarket costs in mom/pop stores)
I think there is something seriously wrong with this approach and I for one have been buying my produce in local mom and pop shops that gets it fresh from the local markets each day.
God only knows what they put on imported goods and I’m sick and tired of hearing “recalls” and warnings of e-coli infected foods etc.
How do you get people to do the same? Don’t you think we should support local wherever possible?
I just hate that I am forced to shop at various different places because the quality sucks in supermarkets. It shouldn’t be that way.
