Executive Summary
Opening in April 2015 in a previous pizzeria location with a new owner and new
attitude, Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant is a completely remodeled and upgraded venue with a
varied menu including pizza, pasta, sandwiches, and frozen yogurt. Since opening, the
restaurant has noted a slowly growing customer base while attempting to shed the negative
perception that lingers from the previous pizza shop.
The owner feels his performance meets the standards of quality for the community
compared to similar restaurants in the immediate area. As for communication, Bone’s Pizza
and Restaurant has Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and a restaurant website. Flyers are
distributed to target high traffic events to attract customers during those busy times in town.
The owner and decision maker of Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant is receptive to suggestions and
new ideas to create a positive presence within the community, but without a public relations
department, he can only rely on himself.
Performance Audit
Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant provides a traditional pizza and sandwich shop menu
offering pizza, appetizers, subs, wraps, salads, and wings. Catering to health-conscious
clients with a sweet tooth, the new addition to the business, a frozen yogurt shop, offers
milkshakes and smoothies with natural ingredients. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant provides a
comfortable dining-in area with music and big screen televisions showcasing sports. A
convenient, free delivery service is available.
Based on the judgment of customers who give their opinion either through survey,
word of mouth, or online reviews, the quality of the food is improved from that of the
previous owner. In the last several years, the pizza place has changed owners and names
Kinetic PR 5
multiple times. The owner of Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant saw an opportunity to give the
place another try by revamping the style, giving it a facelift, and improved menu. The
business has improved with fresh ingredients and a clean, comfortable atmosphere.
The restaurant is conveniently located on the corner of Main Street at the beginning of
Kutztown University of Pennsylvania’s campus, intersecting between north and south
campus. Off-street parking on Main Street offers an advantage for customers. Another
advantage Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant has is he enterprising attitude of the owner with new
ideas and specials. They are becoming known for their buffalo chicken dip, grandma pies
(deep dish pizza with hamburger), and fish fry.
Having a location in close proximity to the college is an advantage. Bone’s Pizza and
Restaurant views big events during the school year, such as homecoming, Kutz-patty’s day
and move-in day, as a prime business opportunities and the restaurant endeavors to capture
the attention of the increased traffic.
As for disadvantages, they are struggling with retaining customers and acquiring new
customers who attend the university. The pizza shop is competing with Kutztown
University’s dining department with the opening of several on campus restaurants. Recently,
the school opened the Cub-Café, which is open 24 hours and could potentially hurt Bone’s
Pizza and Restaurant's business.
As for exposure, Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant found a major success in their flyers
that they sent out and have acquired new customers through the specials distributed to off-
campus housing. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant not only wants to focus on their food for the
next few years, but the overall environment and atmosphere of their business. With the space
they have inside, they want to utilize it and come up with ideas on how to use the extra space
to get people to come in. With televisions and music set up already, Bone’s Pizza and
Restaurant is considering adding an arcade or a stage for open mic night and potentially,
Kinetic PR 6
movie night. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant will continue to focus on their online social-media
presence and create an atmosphere for college students and local residents to dine in
comfortably.
Structure Audit
Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant's mission is to provide customers within the local
Kutztown community with first-rate signature pizzas, pastas, wings, and sandwiches for
dining in and delivery. Offering a sweet ending all year round, and located within the
restaurant, the pizzeria also offers frozen yogurt out of their Bone’s Twisted Sister Frozen
Yogurt Shop, which conforms to the vision of the restaurant to serve the local community’s
families, businesses, and college students with superb service and high-quality meals. Being a
newly established business (opening April 2015), there is a small budget for public relation
operations. The organization’s strategy process is dependent upon the owner. For the past
year, through participating in community events, distributing flyers, and sending mailings the
owner has attempted to establish a presence and eradicate the negative reputation of the
former pizza shop. The owner feels that in the next few years the advertising budget will
decrease as the restaurant becomes more established. Due to the minimal staff, there is no
public relations person on the staff. The owner serves numerous roles within the restaurant
and is the decision-maker.
Internal Impediments Audit
Internal obstructions present at Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant begin with the preceding
reputation of the former pizzeria at the location. While the new owner gutted the pizzeria to
provide a clean dining area, replaced all the equipment, and created a new menu to overcome
the negative image, the former owner’s lack of cleanliness is still associated with the location.
Kinetic PR 7
The owner employs face-to-face interaction and flyers delivered to area businesses, homes,
dorms, and student housing to conjure a fresh image of his restaurant.
Lastly, an impediment to timely success is having to learn by mistake. Lacking
managerial experience and a restaurant background, the owner is proactive in advertising and
marketing. There are no objectives in place for success besides a small budget and “let’s try
this” approach. Being a fledgling business with a shoestring budget at times is proving
difficult because of the paradox of requiring additional income to advertise and create the
brand image requires more business to generate revenue for the larger budget. While not
feasible at this time, employing a public relations person to research the local market and
create a plan of action to improve the restaurant’s image would prove beneficial on how to
spend the allotted dollars to reap the most value.

Executive Summary: Students
The students at Kutztown are always on the search of where to eat daily. There are
days when students have an incentive of what to eat due to a special that is provided by their
favorite hot-spots to eat at such as wing night or taco Tuesdays,. The students in Kutztown do
not always have the money to spend, but want to look for a spot to go with their friends and
grab food at a decent price. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant can provide a comfortable
atmosphere at a nearby location and diverse menu at reasonable prices, connecting the north
and south campus.
Students Overall Stakeholder Characteristics Audit
After surveying a few students at Kutztown from freshmen to seniors, there seems to
be a correlation in responses. The first question asked was, “What do you know about Bone’s
Pizza and Restaurant's issue on gaining new customers and changing the old perception of the
failed businesses here before?” The younger students who were freshmen had no idea about
the problem existing. These students are still new to Kutztown and have occasionally walked
passed it and stopped by to grab something quick if they were hungry or use their meal
swipes instead.
As for the older junior and senior students who were interviewed, they barely thought
twice about Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant. After asking them for the reason, they had no
answer. The students didn’t think too much to order from Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant. Most
of the students say they typically order from Tommy Boys or once in a blue moon go out of
town to eat where they can spend the same amount of money at a better environment with
alcohol.
Kinetic PR 10
Students Stakeholder Characteristics Audit Specific to Your Organization
The students have a major effect on Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant, since the town is
dominated by college students. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant may or may not have a
significant effect on students. Since Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant is one of many other fast-
food places in Kutztown, it doesn’t mean that students necessarily depend on Bone’s Pizza
and Restaurant to serve them food. With options on campus, cheaper alternatives such as
cooking or searching for healthier food options, Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant can easily be
substituted for student’s choices for eating out.
As for perception and what students know about Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant, the
new incoming freshmen say some of them know about the place, but many admitted they did
not. They had never heard about people speaking of the place or mentioning it. Perhaps they
have seen flyers, but without the word of mouth on a repeated basis, it does not put Bone’s
Pizza and Restaurant in the light. Yet, freshmen students say they are open to trying out
Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant. Without a kitchen to use in the dorms, they are forced to eating
conveniently. Although, there are times where they cannot use meal swipes at certain times,
they rely on fast food delivery, or even walking to pick it up to get outside or to avoid paying
delivery fees and tips.
The older students, such as sophomores, juniors, and seniors who don’t live on
campus, are starting to buy food in bulk that may be more convenient for them to eat at home
during the week. They typically shop at Giant or a wholesaler to buy food in bulk that is
frozen and quick to make, or they buy fresh ingredients, and attempt to cook themselves.
However, on the weekends when the older crowd of students are in town at a party or leaving
the bars, they find it is easier to walk to Tommy Boys, because it’s in the middle of town,
rather than walking up the street to Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant . I found that the freshmen
students were more open to trying out Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant than the older students.
Kinetic PR 11
The freshmen are still new to college and don’t mind exploring different places to eat at, but
the older students acknowledge their past years of constantly eating pizza and they are slowly
seeking better options.
When going out to eat, juniors and seniors tend to dine in at a restaurant such as the
tavern or the pub in order to be at a more mature-leveled environment with fully cooked
meals, rather than at a pizza joint. In regards to the attitudes of the freshmen/sophomores and
juniors/seniors, I think everyone has a different perspective and perception of Bone’s Pizza
and Restaurant, or fast food in general. The younger crowd is definitely fond of eating out,
but older crowds are pickier about what they are eating and where they are spending their
money. We are satisfied with both attitudes, because it helps to understand what the mindset
is of each group in order to use data to appeal to them.
Concluding, in regards to what students have said about Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant,
we understand that the freshmen, and a few sophomores, have become loyal to Bone’s Pizza
and Restaurant in some form, but the place constantly needs to revamp itself to maintain a
presence. We do not see the older students such as juniors and seniors staying loyal mainly
because they have been already exposed to Tommy Boys, Mama’s Delights, and Camillo's,
and it is difficult for them to switch. As for Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant, they need to add
specials or items to their menu that differentiates themselves from others in order to stand out
and finally get people talking. Adding healthy options is a must, mainly because not everyone
is fond of eating pizza and fried food all the time.
Students Stakeholder Communications Audit
As for communication channels, students are using text messaging, Snapchat, and
Twitter. A majority say they are no longer using Facebook and moving away from that
platform of social media. Surprisingly, a large number of students are still using email.
Kinetic PR 12
Mainly to stay in touch with their classmates and professors, this may be a great way to get in
communication with students. When it comes to news media, people tend to find their
information out through Twitter and other third party apps such as Flipboard, Instagram, or
news apps.
For promotion purposes, students are generally attracted to specials and discounts.
They find that this is a great incentive to come in and to try something new, if it can be
offered at a decent price. Students also find that by having a “theme night” gives them the
excuse to go out and be part of something as well, such as taco Tuesday or wing night.
Unfortunately, the students do not seem to be bothered by Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant.
Students say there has not been an incentive or something special about the place to make
them feel irresistible to the business. We have asked up to ten random students individually,
without anyone else in the room in order to grasp a better understanding of their opinions and
thoughts about the business, and found that by interviewing these students without others
around to influence their opinions a more validated response was given.
Students Demographics/Psychographics Audit
Age Range: 17-23

Benefits
Students are looking for a place where they can go with their friends and meet up at a
“centralized” location to grab a bite or even just to hang out and do school work. They want
great food at a decent price with a great reputation. They care about the reputation of places
they go to because it is a reflection of who they are. Students want to be able to order big
specials with a lot of people at a valuable price, along with quality food. Overall, students
want exclusivity. They want a place where they can call theirs and not too public for
everyone to join.
Kinetic PR 14
Executive Summary: Staff
The staff of Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant devotes its utmost attention to the feedback
directed at them, stemming from a variety of different demographics. Not only are they eager
to listen to their diners’ critiques, but they are more than willing to incorporate the incoming
suggestions into their policy. Owner, Terry Dorrity, has gone on the record saying that he has
acted on the advice given to him, one occasion in particular being when a 19-year old girl
who told him that she “[didn’t] like to see [her] sandwiches be made in front of [her],”
leading to his decision to prepare certain foods in closed off areas. Bone’s Pizza and
Restaurant employees converse with locals/students outside the establishment during their
free time, asking what their favorite nearby pizzeria is and why they chose it. Should Bone’s
Pizza and Restaurant be considered the best, whether it be for the quality of its ingredients or
the ambience it evokes, the staff will work tirelessly to ensure that the standards of that aspect
are well maintained, if not, further improved upon.
Overall Staff Characteristics Audit
Prior to its reopening in 2015, the future of the establishment, once known as “Uncle
Joe’s,” did not look very promising. Based on the assessment of its current owner, Dorrity,
the original owners would display pizzas which looked to be days old, had their soda machine
located across the far end of the restaurant, and upon going to purchase a slice for himself, he
would be charged double the cost of what he was told he would be paying. At the time,
Dorrity was a semi-retired financial advisor with a house in Florida. What could he possibly
gain by trying to breathe new life into a decrepit campus pizzeria? In spite of the potential
hurdles and months of renovation, Dorrity took over as owner of April 1st, 2015 and renamed
the establishment “Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant,” and implemented many improvements.
Kinetic PR 15
Staff Characteristics Audit: Specific to Your Organization
Firstly, the restaurant had to promote themselves. Printing for each menu would cost
$0.05 apiece. It should also be noted that they would expand from the original owners’
variety of twelve menu options to well over one hundred. Dorrity and his team then went
around the area handing out (what he estimates) to be over two thousand flyers. While the
advertisement efforts would set them back $100, they would earn fifty new regular patrons
from their efforts. They have also found the most success on the days in which students move
back onto campus after summer/Christmas break.
Secondly, there were the actual changes to the overall restaurant. Not only was the
eatery renovated, the staff notes the investment in high quality cheese and flour for their pies,
with Dorrity himself refusing to use semolina as an ingredient. If it isn’t something he would
eat, it isn’t something he would feed his diners. Additionally, Dorrity has several flat screen
televisions installed throughout the premises, appropriate for potential game day gatherings
and other popular broadcast events. Soon, he hopes to arrange a weekly movie night in which
they will regularly play a different feature and attendants will be welcomed with free
popcorn. They also keep their atmosphere in check with an assortment of classic 70s and 80s
playing over their sound system (from the likes of Aerosmith and the Eagles).
Staff Communication Audit
The restaurant has an online presence in that it has both a Facebook page and a
Twitter account registered on its behalf. While the Facebook page is frequently updated,
informing its followers about their ongoing specials, the Twitter account has been left mostly
Kinetic PR 16
unused. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant also offers updates to those who willingly sign up for
their e-mail subscriptions.
Staff Demographics/Psychographics Audit
Age Range: 19-46
Geographic Characteristics: Local, Originate from Pennsylvania and New Jersey
Socio-Economic Traits: Mostly college students on limited budgets
Product/Service Usage: Snack food, toiletries, alcohol, etc.
Cultural/Ethnic/Religious Traits: Employs both Caucasian and African-Americans with
varied religious beliefs
Education Level: Mostly undergraduates
Benefits
Bone’s offers its employees the opportunity to work in a simultaneously laid back and
active work environment. Kutztown students, in particular can work there, giving them the
ability to tend to their expenses, all while being within a stone’s throw of a class they might
have starting as their shift comes to an end. The staff is exposed to a workplace in which they
might better their customer service skills, food preparation, and overall interpersonal
communication abilities.

Executive Summary: Kutztown Businesses
The area Kutztown businesses encompasses about a ten mile radius from Bone’s
Pizza & Restaurant. This includes any business that is not an eatery. These stakeholders can
be a major factor in providing consistent business to Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant.

community that are in town year round. By establishing a connection with these stakeholders
it will develop a positive word-of-mouth that will be spread throughout the business entire
network, friends, and customers.
Overall Kutztown Businesses Characteristics Audit
Kutztown businesses are only slightly aware of Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant. Bone’s
Pizza & Restaurant is only known to select members of the community. Some businesses in
the area are unaware of the change of owners and still refer to Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant as
its predecessor.
The businesses in Kutztown would like to know more about the special menu items
and deals of the day. By creating regular customers Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant can begin to
adjust menu items and specials to cater to regular customer’s needs.
Kinetic PR 18
This stakeholder group wants to rely on Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant for consistent
quality food. Only some Kutztown businesses trust that Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant has the
ability to deliver quality food. Due to the previous owners’ reputation, businesses are
skeptical on the consistency Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant can provide.
Kutztown businesses do not want Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant to become a complete
college hang out. Businesses owners operate professionally and want Bone’s Pizza &
Restaurant to keep the integrity of a restaurant atmosphere.
Businesses in Kutztown haven’t been exposed to Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant long
enough to develop problems with the restaurant.
There is little that this stakeholder group can do to change their perception of Bone’s

been no contradictory evidence to argue the accuracy of these findings.
Kinetic PR 19
Many members of the community are unaware of Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant. Most
people in the immediate area overlook the establishment. Many people in the community still
associate it with its predecessor Uncle Joe’s Pizza. Since Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant opened
seven months ago, they have made strides in raising awareness of the business. Most
businesses in Kutztown are aware of Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant, but are not seeking
information or looking to become regular customers.
Due to the newness of the business, I believe the customer’s attitude is expected. With
four different pizza places within a mile, Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant is struggling to develop
an identity. Currently, the pizza shop has to work to attract the owners and employees to their
restaurant. Businesses have the potential to very dependable loyal customers.
Businesses in and around Kutztown are one of the main focus for Bones marketing
efforts. Businesses know they play a huge role in helping area businesses function. Due to the
low cost alternatives, it takes significant effort to maintain customer loyalty. Employees at
these businesses will continue to order sporadically
Business owners that have tried Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant have no complaints. On
the other side of the spectrum, businesses that have tried Bones don’t feel overly satisfied.
Bones needs to focus on spreading information about their all natural ingredients.
Kutztown Business Communications Audit
Each organization thrives through word-of-mouth communication. Some businesses
are little shops themselves creating new customers from positive reviews, which is important
for business. Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant has worked to select important businesses and
Kinetic PR 20
distribute flyers. Advertising and promotional media businesses pay attention to is the
newspaper, and flyers.
Other channels of consumption differ by business with each organization using
different social media platforms, depending on the business. The common tool that most
businesses use is Facebook.
Kutztown Businesses are not seeking information on what Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant
has to offer. The community is somewhat likely to act on the information it receives.
Although new information will be noted, it may take time and positive word-of-mouth for
business owners and employees to become regular customers of Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant.
Credible sources and opinion leaders for the Kutztown Community include all of the
business owners, their customers, community members, and their acquaintances within the
area.

Benefits
Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant has the potential to cater to the needs of Kutztown

employees are getting exactly what they want. This is different from other discounts because
it can be for a variety of menu options. Traditionally Bone’s Pizza & Restaurant deals cater to

Executive Summary: Kutztown Community
Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant is a comfortable and inviting fast-casual operation with
dine-in, take-out, and delivery created for the local residents, students, and businesses of the
Kutztown community. The energy and atmosphere is appealing to families and groups with
large tables and open space. The owner, manager, and staff are attentive and courteous,
providing fresh food and excellent service in order to build their customer base.
The main goal of Kinetic PR is to develop a niche service for the local publics to
increase the customer base and develop loyalty as a destination location, instead of just a
convenience location.
Overall Kutztown Community Characteristics Audit
Most of the Kutztown community is aware that there is a pizza shop on the corner of
Main Street and Normal Avenue. Many residents commented that the location has housed
several pizza shops that have failed; they also noted that the interior of the shop was in
disrepair. Many had received flyers in the mail, but did not pay much attention to them based
on the association of failure with the location.
Some members knew that the shop had been overhauled, but based on the previous
condition, had not frequented visited the restaurant. Those that had visited the shop
mentioned that the remodeling of the shop was refreshing and the food was satisfactory, yet a
bit pricey and clients were reluctant to spend ten dollars on a lunch.
The public recognized the cleaner dining room, but felt that it lacked a homey feeling.
When they entered the restaurant they were greeted, but said they missed the enveloping
nostalgic smell of fresh pizza cooking. Some noted that the restaurant was drafty. Free
delivery seemed to be a positive for the restaurant. A few citizens hold the perception that
because the shop is located next to the campus, it is a “college” shop, and avoid the location.
Kinetic PR 23
The eatery needs to connect with the community in a positive way and shed the past
perceptions. Sharing the message of the refurbished restaurant as being fresh and innovative
is tantamount to success.
Kutztown Community Communication Audit
Bones Pizza and Restaurant communicates through mailed and hand-delivered flyers,
Facebook, an email list, and impromptu visit, with a coupon, to area businesses. Some
residents recalled receiving the flyers, and most viewed them as junk mail going directly into
the trash. Basically, the only way they are attempting to gain new customers is through print.
To participate with the Facebook page, a potential client would have to proactively search
and actively “like” the page. To join the email list, one must visit the restaurant and be asked
to join the list. The email list is a client retention measure.
Most residents mentioned having a magnet on their fridge with a different pizza shop
name, number, and address with that number stored in their smart phone for easy access.
Many residents were interested in receiving text messages with specials and a free pizza
program. Having a menu attached to a delivery or the receipt was also mentioned as a helpful
for repeat business.
In order to generate new business, the business needs to approach the community with
an incentive to try the eatery, to experience the revamped atmosphere and improved food.
The more community members that visit the restaurant and speak of their positive experience
to others, the more trust the public will acquire. For trust seems to be the main issue.

Analysis Outcome:
Students want to try out new places in Kutztown, PA. They are open to different
options, but are looking for alternative options that they cannot get on campus. Students want
to be able to attend a place with friends and have a variety of options to choose from.
Unfortunately, campus foods may be offering new and cheaper options for students that will
persuade them to eat on campus rather than ordering out. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant have
competition with the school to gain business from students.

Analysis Outcome:
Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant’s convenient location, affordable deals, quality
ingredients, and relaxed environment work to the establishment’s strengths. However, word
of mouth between locals, comparing the restaurant with other nearby pizzerias, inevitably
results in preconceived notions about its own standard of success.

Analysis Outcome:
Area Kutztown businesses want to support the growth of businesses in the community.
Bone’s Restaurant and Pizza has a variety of menu options to keep frequent customers
returning regularly. Most businesses do not believe in the business longevity due to the
“curse” of the location. Similar substitutes in the area also provide substantial competition.

5 4 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 5
Analysis Outcome:
Through the flyers, the Kutztown community has recognized marketing innovation in
product promotion. The local residents presented some awareness of the new shop and
acknowledged the need to support area businesses. Having Wi-Fi and large screen televisions
are seemingly expected by the local community as usual and customary for a fast-food place.
To stay competitive, the shop needs a commitment to a constant revision of menu items. The
community is willing to give the pizza shop a try, but the shop needs to deliver with good
quality food and its optional low-calorie, vegetarian, and heart healthy foods in order to gain
loyalty.

Student Medium Analysis Summary
When a social platform becomes mainstream, students look for a new
alternative. They like a platform where they can share what they’re doing with
their friends, while still enjoying the diversity of many platforms. As of now,
Bone’s Pizza should be focusing on leveraging all social media networks at this
point in order to maintain their online presence with their community.

Staff Medium Analysis Summary
Seeing as people are often persuaded to try food they can see ahead of time, Instagram
could be an integral method in which the eatery could establish a presence in a way other
social networking sites can’t. Unfortunately, due to a poor output of new content, it’s chances
of business remain slim. In the meantime, Bone’s presence with Facebook, e-mail updates
and the official site, ilovebonespizza.com, are the restaurant’s most successful and effective
means of promotion.

Area Business Medium Analysis Summary
Each media outlet can provide decent support for Bones Pizza & restaurant. Although
each social media outlet does have substantial benefits the reach and influence to other
business employees is most likely minimal. The best media outlet to use would be the
Kutztown Area Patriot as it reaches the most businesses regularly. Another beneifit is that
due to the age demographic this is the ideal media for this stakeholder group. Word of mouth
is a great way to promote the brands core values of quality and consistentcy.

Kutztown Community Medium Analysis Summary
Each media outlet has the potential to provide presence and support for Bone’s Pizza
and Restaurant. The most effective way to garner regular patrons to the pizza shop is by
creating a community presence that has people discussing their positive experience face-to-
face and on social media (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram). Good food and a good
experience will lead to increased sales. A combination of promotion in print media with a
coupon would draw people in to visit restaurant, while their positive discussion and review
would lead to gathering a larger client base. Failing to provide a positive experience will lead
to a backlash from the community by forgoing future visits to the restaurant.

SWOT Analysis
Helpful to Achieving Goal Harmful to Achieving Goal
Internal Origin
Attributes of the
Organization
Strengths:
 Convenient downtown location
with off-street parking near
campus
 Renovated to improve image
 Appeal to a wide target group
with an average income
 Range of entrees and frozen
yogurt shop
 Low food costs
 Free delivery
Weaknesses:
 Lack of community awareness
 Lack of presence
 Taint of failed location
 Small marketing budget with
limited public relations
 Competitors can offer similar
products quickly
 Limited cost flexibility
External Origin
Attributes
Opportunities:
 Increase presence
 Increase in the awareness of
take-out delivery
 Increase awareness of healthy
menu items
 Expand to online food ordering
 Development of franchise
Threats:
 Shifts in preference away from
processed food
 Increase in competitive food
outlets on campus and other pizza
shops leading to smaller market
share
 Economic recession affects
discretionary dollars leading to
customers eating at home
Summary
Through effective advertising and promotions, there are numerous opportunities for
Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant to expand its target market, while creating awareness and
revenue. A weakness is lack of effective marketing hinders the company’s known presence to
overcome previous owner’s failure. Bone’s Pizza must persuade community to give a known
failed location another try. Other competitors, such as pizza shops and on-campus eateries,
take away customers. Rising health concerns and people being more fitness concerned might
also cause a drop in pizza and/or fast food consumption. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant needs
to increase its community and online presence to survive and thrive in the saturated food
environment of Kutztown, PA.

  • 4. Kinetic PR 3 Kinetic PR Section 1.1 Internal Audits
  • 5. Kinetic PR 4 Executive Summary Opening in April 2015 in a previous pizzeria location with a new owner and new attitude, Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant is a completely remodeled and upgraded venue with a varied menu including pizza, pasta, sandwiches, and frozen yogurt. Since opening, the restaurant has noted a slowly growing customer base while attempting to shed the negative perception that lingers from the previous pizza shop. The owner feels his performance meets the standards of quality for the community compared to similar restaurants in the immediate area. As for communication, Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant has Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and a restaurant website. Flyers are distributed to target high traffic events to attract customers during those busy times in town. The owner and decision maker of Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant is receptive to suggestions and new ideas to create a positive presence within the community, but without a public relations department, he can only rely on himself. Performance Audit Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant provides a traditional pizza and sandwich shop menu offering pizza, appetizers, subs, wraps, salads, and wings. Catering to health-conscious clients with a sweet tooth, the new addition to the business, a frozen yogurt shop, offers milkshakes and smoothies with natural ingredients. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant provides a comfortable dining-in area with music and big screen televisions showcasing sports. A convenient, free delivery service is available. Based on the judgment of customers who give their opinion either through survey, word of mouth, or online reviews, the quality of the food is improved from that of the previous owner. In the last several years, the pizza place has changed owners and names
  • 6. Kinetic PR 5 multiple times. The owner of Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant saw an opportunity to give the place another try by revamping the style, giving it a facelift, and improved menu. The business has improved with fresh ingredients and a clean, comfortable atmosphere. The restaurant is conveniently located on the corner of Main Street at the beginning of Kutztown University of Pennsylvania’s campus, intersecting between north and south campus. Off-street parking on Main Street offers an advantage for customers. Another advantage Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant has is he enterprising attitude of the owner with new ideas and specials. They are becoming known for their buffalo chicken dip, grandma pies (deep dish pizza with hamburger), and fish fry. Having a location in close proximity to the college is an advantage. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant views big events during the school year, such as homecoming, Kutz-patty’s day and move-in day, as a prime business opportunities and the restaurant endeavors to capture the attention of the increased traffic. As for disadvantages, they are struggling with retaining customers and acquiring new customers who attend the university. The pizza shop is competing with Kutztown University’s dining department with the opening of several on campus restaurants. Recently, the school opened the Cub-Café, which is open 24 hours and could potentially hurt Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant's business. As for exposure, Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant found a major success in their flyers that they sent out and have acquired new customers through the specials distributed to off- campus housing. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant not only wants to focus on their food for the next few years, but the overall environment and atmosphere of their business. With the space they have inside, they want to utilize it and come up with ideas on how to use the extra space to get people to come in. With televisions and music set up already, Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant is considering adding an arcade or a stage for open mic night and potentially,
  • 7. Kinetic PR 6 movie night. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant will continue to focus on their online social-media presence and create an atmosphere for college students and local residents to dine in comfortably. Structure Audit Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant's mission is to provide customers within the local Kutztown community with first-rate signature pizzas, pastas, wings, and sandwiches for dining in and delivery. Offering a sweet ending all year round, and located within the restaurant, the pizzeria also offers frozen yogurt out of their Bone’s Twisted Sister Frozen Yogurt Shop, which conforms to the vision of the restaurant to serve the local community’s families, businesses, and college students with superb service and high-quality meals. Being a newly established business (opening April 2015), there is a small budget for public relation operations. The organization’s strategy process is dependent upon the owner. For the past year, through participating in community events, distributing flyers, and sending mailings the owner has attempted to establish a presence and eradicate the negative reputation of the former pizza shop. The owner feels that in the next few years the advertising budget will decrease as the restaurant becomes more established. Due to the minimal staff, there is no public relations person on the staff. The owner serves numerous roles within the restaurant and is the decision-maker. Internal Impediments Audit Internal obstructions present at Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant begin with the preceding reputation of the former pizzeria at the location. While the new owner gutted the pizzeria to provide a clean dining area, replaced all the equipment, and created a new menu to overcome the negative image, the former owner’s lack of cleanliness is still associated with the location.
  • 8. Kinetic PR 7 The owner employs face-to-face interaction and flyers delivered to area businesses, homes, dorms, and student housing to conjure a fresh image of his restaurant. Lastly, an impediment to timely success is having to learn by mistake. Lacking managerial experience and a restaurant background, the owner is proactive in advertising and marketing. There are no objectives in place for success besides a small budget and “let’s try this” approach. Being a fledgling business with a shoestring budget at times is proving difficult because of the paradox of requiring additional income to advertise and create the brand image requires more business to generate revenue for the larger budget. While not feasible at this time, employing a public relations person to research the local market and create a plan of action to improve the restaurant’s image would prove beneficial on how to spend the allotted dollars to reap the most value.
  • 9. Kinetic PR 8 Kinetic PR Section 1.2 Ananlyzing Publics Kutztown Community
  • 10. Kinetic PR 9 Executive Summary: Students The students at Kutztown are always on the search of where to eat daily. There are days when students have an incentive of what to eat due to a special that is provided by their favorite hot-spots to eat at such as wing night or taco Tuesdays,. The students in Kutztown do not always have the money to spend, but want to look for a spot to go with their friends and grab food at a decent price. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant can provide a comfortable atmosphere at a nearby location and diverse menu at reasonable prices, connecting the north and south campus. Students Overall Stakeholder Characteristics Audit After surveying a few students at Kutztown from freshmen to seniors, there seems to be a correlation in responses. The first question asked was, “What do you know about Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant's issue on gaining new customers and changing the old perception of the failed businesses here before?” The younger students who were freshmen had no idea about the problem existing. These students are still new to Kutztown and have occasionally walked passed it and stopped by to grab something quick if they were hungry or use their meal swipes instead. As for the older junior and senior students who were interviewed, they barely thought twice about Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant. After asking them for the reason, they had no answer. The students didn’t think too much to order from Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant. Most of the students say they typically order from Tommy Boys or once in a blue moon go out of town to eat where they can spend the same amount of money at a better environment with alcohol.
  • 11. Kinetic PR 10 Students Stakeholder Characteristics Audit Specific to Your Organization The students have a major effect on Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant, since the town is dominated by college students. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant may or may not have a significant effect on students. Since Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant is one of many other fast- food places in Kutztown, it doesn’t mean that students necessarily depend on Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant to serve them food. With options on campus, cheaper alternatives such as cooking or searching for healthier food options, Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant can easily be substituted for student’s choices for eating out. As for perception and what students know about Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant, the new incoming freshmen say some of them know about the place, but many admitted they did not. They had never heard about people speaking of the place or mentioning it. Perhaps they have seen flyers, but without the word of mouth on a repeated basis, it does not put Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant in the light. Yet, freshmen students say they are open to trying out Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant. Without a kitchen to use in the dorms, they are forced to eating conveniently. Although, there are times where they cannot use meal swipes at certain times, they rely on fast food delivery, or even walking to pick it up to get outside or to avoid paying delivery fees and tips. The older students, such as sophomores, juniors, and seniors who don’t live on campus, are starting to buy food in bulk that may be more convenient for them to eat at home during the week. They typically shop at Giant or a wholesaler to buy food in bulk that is frozen and quick to make, or they buy fresh ingredients, and attempt to cook themselves. However, on the weekends when the older crowd of students are in town at a party or leaving the bars, they find it is easier to walk to Tommy Boys, because it’s in the middle of town, rather than walking up the street to Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant . I found that the freshmen students were more open to trying out Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant than the older students.
  • 12. Kinetic PR 11 The freshmen are still new to college and don’t mind exploring different places to eat at, but the older students acknowledge their past years of constantly eating pizza and they are slowly seeking better options. When going out to eat, juniors and seniors tend to dine in at a restaurant such as the tavern or the pub in order to be at a more mature-leveled environment with fully cooked meals, rather than at a pizza joint. In regards to the attitudes of the freshmen/sophomores and juniors/seniors, I think everyone has a different perspective and perception of Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant, or fast food in general. The younger crowd is definitely fond of eating out, but older crowds are pickier about what they are eating and where they are spending their money. We are satisfied with both attitudes, because it helps to understand what the mindset is of each group in order to use data to appeal to them. Concluding, in regards to what students have said about Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant, we understand that the freshmen, and a few sophomores, have become loyal to Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant in some form, but the place constantly needs to revamp itself to maintain a presence. We do not see the older students such as juniors and seniors staying loyal mainly because they have been already exposed to Tommy Boys, Mama’s Delights, and Camillo's, and it is difficult for them to switch. As for Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant, they need to add specials or items to their menu that differentiates themselves from others in order to stand out and finally get people talking. Adding healthy options is a must, mainly because not everyone is fond of eating pizza and fried food all the time. Students Stakeholder Communications Audit As for communication channels, students are using text messaging, Snapchat, and Twitter. A majority say they are no longer using Facebook and moving away from that platform of social media. Surprisingly, a large number of students are still using email.
  • 13. Kinetic PR 12 Mainly to stay in touch with their classmates and professors, this may be a great way to get in communication with students. When it comes to news media, people tend to find their information out through Twitter and other third party apps such as Flipboard, Instagram, or news apps. For promotion purposes, students are generally attracted to specials and discounts. They find that this is a great incentive to come in and to try something new, if it can be offered at a decent price. Students also find that by having a “theme night” gives them the excuse to go out and be part of something as well, such as taco Tuesday or wing night. Unfortunately, the students do not seem to be bothered by Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant. Students say there has not been an incentive or something special about the place to make them feel irresistible to the business. We have asked up to ten random students individually, without anyone else in the room in order to grasp a better understanding of their opinions and thoughts about the business, and found that by interviewing these students without others around to influence their opinions a more validated response was given. Students Demographics/Psychographics Audit Age Range: 17-23 Geographic Characteristics: Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York Socio-Economic Traits: College students on budgets but some flexible with jobs. Product/ Service Usage: Entre foods, snacks, books, alcohol Cultural/ Ethnic/ Religious Traits: Caucasian and African-American Education Level: All undergrads
  • 14. Kinetic PR 13 Benefits Students are looking for a place where they can go with their friends and meet up at a “centralized” location to grab a bite or even just to hang out and do school work. They want great food at a decent price with a great reputation. They care about the reputation of places they go to because it is a reflection of who they are. Students want to be able to order big specials with a lot of people at a valuable price, along with quality food. Overall, students want exclusivity. They want a place where they can call theirs and not too public for everyone to join.
  • 15. Kinetic PR 14 Executive Summary: Staff The staff of Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant devotes its utmost attention to the feedback directed at them, stemming from a variety of different demographics. Not only are they eager to listen to their diners’ critiques, but they are more than willing to incorporate the incoming suggestions into their policy. Owner, Terry Dorrity, has gone on the record saying that he has acted on the advice given to him, one occasion in particular being when a 19-year old girl who told him that she “[didn’t] like to see [her] sandwiches be made in front of [her],” leading to his decision to prepare certain foods in closed off areas. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant employees converse with locals/students outside the establishment during their free time, asking what their favorite nearby pizzeria is and why they chose it. Should Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant be considered the best, whether it be for the quality of its ingredients or the ambience it evokes, the staff will work tirelessly to ensure that the standards of that aspect are well maintained, if not, further improved upon. Overall Staff Characteristics Audit Prior to its reopening in 2015, the future of the establishment, once known as “Uncle Joe’s,” did not look very promising. Based on the assessment of its current owner, Dorrity, the original owners would display pizzas which looked to be days old, had their soda machine located across the far end of the restaurant, and upon going to purchase a slice for himself, he would be charged double the cost of what he was told he would be paying. At the time, Dorrity was a semi-retired financial advisor with a house in Florida. What could he possibly gain by trying to breathe new life into a decrepit campus pizzeria? In spite of the potential hurdles and months of renovation, Dorrity took over as owner of April 1st, 2015 and renamed the establishment “Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant,” and implemented many improvements.
  • 16. Kinetic PR 15 Staff Characteristics Audit: Specific to Your Organization Firstly, the restaurant had to promote themselves. Printing for each menu would cost $0.05 apiece. It should also be noted that they would expand from the original owners’ variety of twelve menu options to well over one hundred. Dorrity and his team then went around the area handing out (what he estimates) to be over two thousand flyers. While the advertisement efforts would set them back $100, they would earn fifty new regular patrons from their efforts. They have also found the most success on the days in which students move back onto campus after summer/Christmas break. Secondly, there were the actual changes to the overall restaurant. Not only was the eatery renovated, the staff notes the investment in high quality cheese and flour for their pies, with Dorrity himself refusing to use semolina as an ingredient. If it isn’t something he would eat, it isn’t something he would feed his diners. Additionally, Dorrity has several flat screen televisions installed throughout the premises, appropriate for potential game day gatherings and other popular broadcast events. Soon, he hopes to arrange a weekly movie night in which they will regularly play a different feature and attendants will be welcomed with free popcorn. They also keep their atmosphere in check with an assortment of classic 70s and 80s playing over their sound system (from the likes of Aerosmith and the Eagles). Staff Communication Audit The restaurant has an online presence in that it has both a Facebook page and a Twitter account registered on its behalf.

  • 23. Kinetic PR 22 Executive Summary: Kutztown Community Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant is a comfortable and inviting fast-casual operation with dine-in, take-out, and delivery created for the local residents, students, and businesses of the Kutztown community.

The main goal of Kinetic PR is to develop a niche service for the local publics to increase the customer base and develop loyalty as a destination location, instead of just a convenience location. Overall Kutztown Community Characteristics Audit Most of the Kutztown community is aware that there is a pizza shop on the corner of Main Street and Normal Avenue. Many residents commented that the location has housed several pizza shops that have failed; they also noted that the interior of the shop was in disrepair. Many had received flyers in the mail, but did not pay much attention to them based on the association of failure with the location. Some members knew that the shop had been overhauled, but based on the previous condition, had not frequented visited the restaurant. Those that had visited the shop mentioned that the remodeling of the shop was refreshing and the food was satisfactory, yet a bit pricey and clients were reluctant to spend ten dollars on a lunch. The public recognized the cleaner dining room, but felt that it lacked a homey feeling. When they entered the restaurant they were greeted, but said they missed the enveloping nostalgic smell of fresh pizza cooking. Some noted that the restaurant was drafty. Free delivery seemed to be a positive for the restaurant. A few citizens hold the perception that because the shop is located next to the campus, it is a “college” shop, and avoid the location.
  • 24. Kinetic PR 23 The eatery needs to connect with the community in a positive way and shed the past perceptions. Sharing the message of the refurbished restaurant as being fresh and innovative is tantamount to success. Kutztown Community Communication Audit Bones Pizza and Restaurant communicates through mailed and hand-delivered flyers, Facebook, an email list, and impromptu visit, with a coupon, to area businesses. Some residents recalled receiving the flyers, and most viewed them as junk mail going directly into the trash. Basically, the only way they are attempting to gain new customers is through print. To participate with the Facebook page, a potential client would have to proactively search and actively “like” the page. To join the email list, one must visit the restaurant and be asked to join the list. The email list is a client retention measure. Most residents mentioned having a magnet on their fridge with a different pizza shop name, number, and address with that number stored in their smart phone for easy access. Many residents were interested in receiving text messages with specials and a free pizza program. Having a menu attached to a delivery or the receipt was also mentioned as a helpful for repeat business. In order to generate new business, the business needs to approach the community with an incentive to try the eatery, to experience the revamped atmosphere and improved food. The more community members that visit the restaurant and speak of their positive experience to others, the more trust the public will acquire. For trust seems to be the main issue.

To stay competitive, the shop needs a commitment to a constant revision of menu items. The community is willing to give the pizza shop a try, but the shop needs to deliver with good quality food and its optional low-calorie, vegetarian, and heart healthy foods in order to gain loyalty.

Unfortunately, due to a poor output of new content, it’s chances of business remain slim. In the meantime, Bone’s presence with Facebook, e-mail updates and the official site, ilovebonespizza.com, are the restaurant’s most successful and effective means of promotion.

The most effective way to garner regular patrons to the pizza shop is by creating a community presence that has people discussing their positive experience face-to- face and on social media (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram). Good food and a good experience will lead to increased sales. A combination of promotion in print media with a coupon would draw people in to visit restaurant, while their positive discussion and review would lead to gathering a larger client base. Failing to provide a positive experience will lead to a backlash from the community by forgoing future visits to the restaurant.

A weakness is lack of effective marketing hinders the company’s known presence to overcome previous owner’s failure. Bone’s Pizza must persuade community to give a known failed location another try. Other competitors, such as pizza shops and on-campus eateries, take away customers. Rising health concerns and people being more fitness concerned might also cause a drop in pizza and/or fast food consumption. Bone’s Pizza and Restaurant needs to increase its community and online presence to survive and thrive in the saturated food environment of Kutztown, PA.
