Marketing Gimmicks

Taking social media promos to the next level of nuttiness, conveyor belt sushi chain Blue C is offering a free plate of sushi today if guests snap a #sushiselfie with a chef, tag it, and post it to Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter. The Stranger's Bethany Jean Clement writes over on Slog, "for the Blue C sushi chefs, this is just going to be a pain in the ass." The offer ends tonight at Blue C's Seattle, San Francisco, and Los Angeles locations. [-EN-]
