PPC, or pay-per-click, is absolutely essential for driving footfall to your high street restaurant. PPC covers a huge range of advertising techniques, many of which can be implemented as part of a multi-faceted strategy to secure bookings.
One of the most essential PPC techniques for restaurants is Google Map listings. When your local customers do an online search for ‘near me’ keywords, your restaurant can rank top of the pack. By setting up these map listings correctly, you can benefit from all of these relevant local searches which can quickly convert into bookings and visits.
Display ads and remarketing can also be used in your paid search strategy to ensure your restaurant is at the forefront of customers’ minds at all times.
It is reported that the food industry on social media platforms including Facebook, Instagram and TikTok is now a multi-billion dollar space - so let’s get your slice of the pie.
With culinary content some of the most searched and watched on the platforms, it’s a competitive space that requires an expert edge to help you stand out. Using the paid advertising features these channels have to offer is a great way to utilise the vast audiences they hold whilst being able to target down to the people who are genuinely interested.
Our experience across the different platforms allows us to review your business goals and recommend the right strategy, whilst helping you develop content and build audiences that will drive footfall and online bookings.
