Skift Take
All is well at Wingstop, even if it is a relatively unknown brand. The company plans to change its low profile — and the new strategy just might work.

Coupled with increased advertising spend, the company hopes to close the gap between itself and competitors, eventually turning Wingstop into a household name like Domino's or KFC.
