Your next Pizza Hut delivery may come with a side order of employment. "Who could possibly ignore a resume when it is delivered as a delicious pizza?" Pizza Hut will then review the submissions and select 25 winners whose resumes will "be hand delivered via custom Pizza Hut ResZAme pizza box to their desired employers." If selected, applicants will be responsible for getting permission from their chosen company to deliver the pizza box resume. While Pizza Hut can't guarantee that the hot and cheesy resume will work, pizza has in the past been shown to be an attention grabber.

That's how it worked out for Matthew Parkhurst, co-founder and CEO of New York-based tech startup Antimetal. The company was ready to emerge from its beta phase, and Parkhurst wanted to make potential clients aware that Antimetal even existed. Antimetal spent roughly $15,000 on pizzas, packaging and targeted delivery to potential clients, venture capital firms and even tech influencers with large social media followings. It worked: Roughly 75 of the companies that received pizza have become Antimetal clients, Parkhurst says — creating a bump of more than $1 million in annualized net revenue, according to documents reviewed by CNBC Make It. "Obviously, the ROI [return on investment] is insane on the revenue side, compared to what we spent," Parkhurst says.
