Why Checking in on Foursquare Can Have its Benefits – Hard Rock All Access

On my recent visit to Universal Studios Orlando, I visited Hard Rock Cafe Orlando for lunch. By the way they have the best Twisted Mac and Cheese, little bit of spice and everything else nice. As the social media and tech geek I am, it was time to check in. Lately I have been using FourSquare, mainly because of the specials offered by a variety of companies. Sometimes you can find offers or specials checking in through Facebook Places or Yelp. Gowalla has stayed clear of the special is more focused on the user experience and passport experience.

Look it’s a special! Always great news when you special anywhere you check in. A past example includes Chili’s, every check in gets you some free chips and salsa plus if you have 3 friends check in together you get a free appetizer to share at the table.

Notice the SPECIAL label under Hard Rock Cafe Orlando

After check-in the special will pop up to show your server. My server didn’t have a clue about the check-in and had to take my phone to show a manager to find out what it was all about. Shortly after someone came around with All Access Pass.
