Are you looking for restaurant marketing help and tips? As a local restaurant owner/manager did you know that right now there are people online looking for your business? But if they can’t find you, they’ll find your competitors, which means you’re losing potential business and money along with it. Look, long gone are the days when print advertising like the Yellow Pages and Newspapers could bring you business. Even radio and TV don’t generate the same type of numbers as yesteryear. In 2012 if your company doesn’t have an online presence that is dynamic and interactive you’re surely missing out on potential business.
To stay competitive your business needs to have a dynamic website that can answer a potential customer’s questions. Keep your restaurant’s menu updated regularly, list any special events and coupons, have a lead capture system on your page….and make sure your site is mobile friendly. A blog for your restaurant is also a great idea to consider.
You should make sure your business is listed properly in all the major online directories like Google, Yahoo, CitySearch, Local and Bing. As well as having an ongoing and consistent social and mobile media marketing strategy on Google +, Facebook, Yelp, Pinterest and Twitter.
Best of all we know these strategies make it easier for customers to continue coming back to your restaurant again and again. If you’d like to here more or discuss ways that you can begin using some or all of these strategies in your restaurant contact us today.
African Gallery Imports also known as Gallery Imports is located in Laurel, MD. The Laurel Mall where this store is located is a disaster. The local Laurel city government has been involved with one developer after another over the last six years trying to create an upscale shopping center in the middle of this town. African Gallery Imports is owned by Audrey Durr-Poole a walking encyclopedia on all things Africa. She opened this gallery to be able to share her passion with the local residents. Most people don’t even stop by the mall because the lighting in the covered garage is non-existent and with only two major brand stores there, Macy’s and Burlington Coat Factory it has been difficult o get business. Mind you African Gallery Imports is an upscale gallery. Most of the masks, paintings, sculptures and artwork are all custom crafted and imported from the African continent. So when we decided to help Audrey get her business on the map per se that’s exactly what we did. We claimed and enhanced her listing on Google Places and the other geo-location directories. We built a new dynamic website for her using WordPress, so that it would be fairly easy to add new content and inventory as it became available. Yes, wants to be able to upload product on the site, so that anyone from around the world can have access to the gallery’s art. (We’re currently adding products to a database to go live in a couple of weeks. We placed analytics on each page of the site and made the site mobile ready as well. Thus far we’re seeing great results for the limited amount of time we’ve been working on this project. African Gallery Imports is first page in search and its been consistently showing up in the number one or two spot on Google Pages for the chosen keywords. Audrey is happy, but there’s much more work to be done.
So in the meantime, if you’re in Laurel go by the Laurel Mall and say Hi to Audrey- she’s on the first floor next to Macy’s Department store.
