If a person who is already full goes to a restaurant, they will pay attention to the atmosphere of the restaurant, how the food is decorated, and how it is cooked. However, a person who is hungry will only care about the food and satisfying their hunger. This is why everyone's perspective on similar issues is different, and each person constructs their inner world based on their needs. It's as if each mind is a separate world unto itself, and each world is foreign to the other. For example, what you see in each person and what attracts or repulses you to them depends on your own inner world. And your complex world is still under construction and changing, from the time you were just a zygote to the present day. The text about the full vs. hungry person at a restaurant connects to marketing in a few key ways: Understanding Your Audience: Just like the hungry person only cares about food, your customers have specific needs and wants. Marketing is all about understanding those needs and tailoring your message accordingly. Customer Segmentation: Similar to splitting the restaurant patrons into "full" and "hungry," you can segment your audience into groups with similar needs. Then, you can craft targeted messages for each segment. Creating Content: Just like the hungry person wouldn't be interested in fancy plateware content, you should create content that addresses your customer's specific problems and interests. Building Relationships: By understanding your customer's perspective, you can connect with them on a deeper level, building trust and loyalty. This is essential for long-term success in business. In fact, people see the world differently based on their needs. In marketing, you need to understand your audience's "inner world" to effectively connect with them. #marketing #business #smallbusiness #entrepreneur

Ever dreamt of opening your own Restaurant or Cafe?🍽️☕ I certainly have! As someone who practically lives for food (seriously, food is life), I know the power of great marketing. Sometimes, I've picked restaurants solely based on their marketing—even when the food wasn’t that great. My restaurant, however, would be the best of both worlds: incredible food and stellar marketing. Here’s how I’d approach the marketing for my future restaurant or cafe: 🔍Competitor Analysis: Analyze local competitors to understand their strengths and weaknesses. Use this insight to craft a unique strategy. 📊Market Research: Identify your target audience and tailor your marketing to meet their needs. 🎨Brand Identity: Develop a strong brand identity with a clear message. This helps build recognition and loyalty. 📱Digital Presence: Build a user-friendly website, create engaging social media profiles, and ensure your business is listed on platforms like Google My Business. 🍽️Unique Selling Proposition (USP): Highlight what makes your restaurant/cafe different to attract customers. 📣Local Community Engagement: Participate in local events and collaborate with other businesses to generate buzz and build a loyal customer base, because loyalty=repetitive customers. 📈Promotional Campaigns: Launch targeted promotional campaigns, offering special discounts, loyalty programs, and referral incentives. 🔄Feedback Loop: Gather and analyze customer feedback to continuously improve the customer experience. Starting a Restaurant or Cafe is about blending creativity with strategy. What strategies would you consider essential?🤔💭 #RestaurantMarketing #CafeStartup #MarketingStrategy #BrandIdentity #CustomerEngagement

I often get reached out by a lot of restauranteurs to help in growing their business through marketing. I make sure to do this and ask these questions. Might be helpful for all my restauranteur friends. Before making a marketing plan for a restaurant, consider asking these key questions: 1. Restaurant Background: How many years has the restaurant been operating, and what’s its story? (e.g., using a mother’s recipe to create curiosity). 2. Location Analysis: What is the restaurant’s location, and does it align with the target food market? 3. Customer Experience: How do guests react to the food and ambiance? What’s the general feedback? 4. Marketing and Engagement: Are you active on social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok? Do you use keywords and behind-the-scenes content to engage with your audience? 5. Customer Retention and Acquisition: What strategies are in place to increase visit frequency and attract new customers? (e.g., frequency programs, special promotions like 'Free Food Fridays for downtime hours' or 'first-time customer discounts'). If you are a marketing enthusiast and think I missed out something important, I would love to know more about it in the comments below. #RestaurantMarketing #MarketingPlan #RestaurantPromotions #BusinessGrowth #FoodTech

The most difficult thing these days for wine businesses is to get attention. It’s harder to get attention because there are so many other things are trying to steal our attention, so, we have two choices: spend lots of money to pay for attention; or be very creative. Most businesses are trying to ‘be a better vanilla', and this definitely won't help you, because you're still vanilla. In the Urban Dictionary, Vanilla is described as “Unexciting, normal, conventional, boring”. In a world with so many people screaming for attention, being normal and conventional will never make you remarkable and no one is going to miss you if you disappear. Are you getting attention for what you are doing? Are people engaging with you? Engagement is much harder to get than followers. You can buy followers but you can’t buy customer engagement and attention. It’s better to have a few hundred people following you and care about what you are talking about, than thousands that don’t care. Are you focussed on a niche market? Or are you trying to make a brand for everyone? #wineindustry #winecommunication #vanillabusinesses #winebusinesses #hennekamwineconsultancy #winelife

Starting a restaurant is tough. The high overhead. The constant pressure. The endless paperwork. The restaurant industry is a cutthroat battleground. With countless competitors vying for the same hungry customers, standing out is harder than ever. So how to achieve a breakthrough as early as possible? I’ve done it with our new restaurant Sthan, and I’ve learned a thing or two. At Sthan, we actively measured (since the beginning) whatever thing we have done. Some worked. Some didn't. So, here is everything that helped us see the light in just one year. ✅ Define your restaurant’s unique identity. What sets you apart? ✅ Create mouthwatering visuals. Food porn sells! ✅ Share the story behind your dishes. People love connections. ✅ Highlight your team. Your staff is your greatest asset. ✅ Focus on creating community. It helps you win in the long run. ✅ Offer exceptional customer service. Every guest is a potential advocate. ✅ Leverage online reviews. Respond to both positive and negative feedback. ✅ Run enticing promotions. Create a buzz around your restaurant. ✅ Partner with local influencers. Expand your reach. ✅ Master the art of social listening. Understand your customers’ needs. ✅ Experiment with different platforms. Find your audience where they are. ✅ Measure and optimize.

The top ways restaurants and operators are creating more demand these days... 1. Reviews It's more than just asking customers to give you 5 stars (although that is key). It's about the reviews reflecting (loosely) the quality of your operations. No surprise but it starts with great food and service. And reviews can give you the guest perspective on those things. 2. Community Sure, a youtube star doing a video on your restaurant can have a big 1-time impact, but it's more about being present in the digital and physical micro-communities. Micro influencers and social posts help keep you top of mind in these communities that in turn accelerate your word-of-mouth growth. 3. Hospitality Moment What's that thing your restaurant is known for? Pick one. And lean into it. Repeat it. This is the thing guests remember you for. It can be anything... Big portion sizes, self-pour taps, saying "my pleasure" instead of "you're welcome", signature dish, staff with a unique personality, loud metal music in the restaurant, lolli-pops with every sandwich, etc. I've seen 100's of different moments. What are some you've seen? 4. Google Keeping your listing up-to-date, leveraging meta data fields, and of course the reviews all help create more demand to your digital storefront. Ads. There is so much more to these than just "ad attribution". Awareness. Acquisition. Conversion. Do people search for pizza, and then find your restaurant? Focus on Awareness. Do people search for you restaurant, and order pizza? Focus on Acquisition. Are you getting site traffic, but not enough orders? Focus on Conversion. In that order. ------ What did I miss? Any other tactics you see driving more digital or physical foot traffic to your restaurants? #Entrepreneurship #Restaurants #DigitalMarketing

😀Here’s a short story to understand the difference between Marketing and Branding. Two sisters, Bukky and Tope, decided to open a restaurant together. Bukky was focused on marketing. She ran ads, handed out flyers, and posted daily on social media. Her efforts drew in crowds, with people eager to try the restaurant’s offerings. Tope, however, focused on branding. She created a cozy atmosphere, chose the perfect name, and made sure every detail reflected the restaurant’s warm, welcoming vibe. She even crafted a story about how their grandmother’s recipes inspired the menu. Over time, they noticed something interesting. Bukky’s marketing brought people in, but it was Tope’s branding that made them stay. Customers didn’t just come for the food; they came because they felt connected to the story and experience that Tope had created. Marketing got them through the door, but branding made them feel like they belonged. Ready to turn interest into loyalty? Say yes to a brand that resonates and drives real results.😃 ♻️Repost♻️ #marketing #branding #LinkedIn #onlinebusiness #b2b #b2c #businessowner #digitalmarketing #socialmediamarketing
