Dallas, Aug. 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dickey’s Barbecue Pit, who recently secured a huge victory by being named the Official Sausage of the Dallas Cowboys, has announced to their domestic franchisee community that parent company Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. will be matching dollar for dollar all of their national Marketing Fund’s advertising spends starting in September and continuing through the end of the year.
While Dickey’s national Marketing Fund advertising budgets are consistently spent exclusively on media support for the brand’s locations across the country, this additional budget allocation from Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. will effectively double the reach of their typical media buys throughout the year.
“We knew that this great partnership with the Dallas Cowboys organization was going to be a tremendous opportunity to expand our audience with football fans, especially,” said Laura Rea Dickey, CEO Dickey's Barbecue Pit, Inc. “So, we have now decided to use this partnership as a sort of launching-pad for our biggest media buy in recent memory and make the financial investment in football-centric media support for our all of our franchise locations across the country. We know football fans are also barbecue fans!”
