Go Further and Try Different Marketing Strategies
So you’ve already covered some elements of your marketing mix which are your product, your price, and your place. In order to promote your restaurant you should ask yourself these questions:
- Where can you get your messages across to your target audience? Is it online, through printed media, on billboards?
- Are your food and service excellent? Word of mouth will tell!
- When is the best time to promote? Think about seasonality: if you run a Mexican restaurant, you’d probably see a great payoff if you make a marketing effort close to 5 de Mayo.
- What are your competitors doing? Does that have an impact on your choice of promotional activities?
Answering these questions will help you decide what marketing materials you should invest in.

Use Videos to Reach Your Customers
Remember that the way to someone’s heart is through their stomach — and sight? It’s a good idea to have an Instagram profile for your restaurant and to upload pictures of your dishes and your place, but it’s an even better idea to pair that up with videos to freshen things up from time to time. The good news is that Placeit’s got you covered with this, as it offers a text animation tool that is as simple to use as its design templates. Try Placeit’s square animated templates for most social media, and Placeit’s vertical animated templates for Instagram Stories and Facebook full-screen experiences.
