Boosting Visibility and Foot Traffic for a Local Restaurant

A locally owned restaurant, known for its seasonal specials and chef-driven dishes, was a local favorite but struggled to stand out in a tourist-heavy market. Visitors often defaulted to chain restaurants, while inconsistent digital efforts meant the restaurant wasn’t showcasing what made it unique. Competition among locals was fierce, and the owners needed a way to raise awareness and bring in both tourists and residents.

Hagadone Media Group built a comprehensive multi-channel strategy to change that. Ads in proprietary print and digital publications highlighted specials and events, reaching locals and out-of-towners through hotels and visitor hubs. Social media management created consistent engagement with high-quality visuals, while geo-targeted digital ads captured travelers in real time. A coupon campaign exceeded expectations, bringing in first-time diners who returned for more. To complete the effort, branded menus, mugs, and signage polished the restaurant’s in-store experience.

The results were clear: a strong increase in walk-in traffic and reservations, high redemption of offers from new customers, and measurable growth in online visibility and social engagement. Customers responded positively to both print and digital ads, and the restaurant achieved greater brand consistency across every touchpoint.
