This infographic provides resources for becoming a better restaurant marketer. In terms of visual communication, the data-visualization in this piece is ineffective, as it uses abstract representations to convey different percentages and amounts. When attempting to represent data, make sure that you root your data in graphs or charts, not illustrations. With no point of reference, it's difficult to really comprehend the impact of the numbers.
