  • Inside the Executive Suite (Tips, Tricks, and Techniques Used by the Nation’S Top Executives… to Get Things Done.)
    Briefing: Wednesday, 13 June 2018 Inside the Executive Suite (Tips, Tricks, and Techniques used by the Nation’s top Executives… to get things done.) Is IHOP Crazy or What? “Beyond the serious, fake, and sports news this month, a big marketing-oriented news story this week involved IHOP. The breakfast-focused brand announced a name change: IHOb, plus a modified logo featuring a smiley face. Its uppercase O and new lowercase b supplied the eyes for the face. IHOP teased the name change for several days, fostering speculation about whether the b would represent breakfast , bacon , or even Beyoncé . On Monday, IHOP ended all the speculation, revealing that the b stands for burgers . The change highlighted the brand’s addition of seven new Ultimate Steakburgers . Company president, Darren Rebelez, proposed that turning around the p to become a b showed IHOP is “’taking the burgers as seriously as we’re taking our pancakes.’” IHOP Is Crazy . or Not Online chatter focused on how crazy and ill-conceived the name change is. Social media is wonderful for providing loud voices to people whose message reach is orders of magnitude larger than their understanding about messages they share. Since we aspire to speak to a focused audience with real understanding on topics, let’s review the IHOb strategy to determine whether IHOP is crazy or savvy. What Goes into Strategy? USA Today and The Motley Fool addressed the IHOP move as just another restaurant brand using gimmicks to drive attention and sales. While the IHOP build-up implied a permanent name change, the reveal showed a short-term move to introduce burgers and boost traffic and sales.
