Could this entire year not just be a building block of a much larger accomplishment? In 2024 I plan to focus more on the big picture for my business and encourage you to do the same. #shorts #socialmediamarketing #marketing2024

Marketing = Customer Retention

“We dont have to invest in marketing, our customers love us because of our ______” Insert anything in the blank because I have heard it all and it’s bullshit! A great product is mandatory in today’s world, but MARKETING is what will keep your customers coming back.

Think about what your customers do outside of dining at your restaurant and become a part of that. Become involved in the community, highlight local sports teams, shout out the high school down the street, and visit the small businesses in the area. The more involved you are and the more your name is in front of them without saying “These are our specials” or “This is our burger” the bigger chance you have at winning their engagement online and ultimately their business.

Yes, you need to show your food, but you need the algorithm on your side to win!
