Social media management for restaurants in South Africa
- 2 platforms · 16 posts/month
- Weekly stories + reels
- Community management
- Monthly report
Short answer: restaurant social media should answer three questions fast. What does the food look like, what's on this week, and how do I book? We plan your posts around your menu, specials and busy season, and reply to booking questions quickly.
Pair it with a restaurant website and an accurate Google Business Profile, and the path from scroll to booking stays short.
Great food, quiet feed
Two reels in March, nothing in April, dim phone photos and booking questions left in the DMs. Diners notice, and book down the road.
