Social media is a key element to any PR strategy.
It is the perfect way of easily keeping in contact with the public. Something that was originally achieved through email marketing which, although still a good tool of communication, is not as widespread as social media.
The need for Social Media
For the hospitality industry, including restaurants, social media is arguably more necessary than most other industries. It gives a perfect opportunity to promote discounts or offers to potential customers; whilst social media also acts as a convenient platform for users to share their experience of your restaurant. All social media channels accommodate a more multimedia user-friendly approach. As such, these platforms are perfect for sharing images and videos, which are proven to increase engagement.
VerriBerri’s Social Media Expertise
VerriBerri have been utilising social media since its birth and we are fully aware of the benefits it can bring. Our dedicated team have specialist experience when managing all social media channels. We dramatically enhance your brand’s online profile. Of course we can set up and manage your social media channels, but here are a few more specific things we can do for each platform:
- Twitter. We know how to utilise each platform to their strengths. A more conversational approach is better suited. Partly due to the character limit. Twitter is a great channel for networking and gaining widespread coverage, particularly in the local area.
- Facebook. Your Facebook page is often the first customers’ see of your business, so it’s important to have an adequate page. Keeping it informative but also interesting is key. Facebook has a designated business setup option, so utilising this is important to have star rating features.
- Instagram. This is a very relevant platform for restaurants, which allows you to showcase your food suitably and elegantly. Like Twitter, utilising hashtags to their potential is of high importance here.
Though these three channels are the most frequently-used platforms; there is also scope to include Pinterest and YouTube in your strategy. At VerriBerri we know how to operate these multimedia channels effectively to engage users.
