Excepting My New Role as GM/Head Chef
My Goals & Mission: Collaborating along side the owners, our staff team and investors, we're working hard to make this restaurant brand to be a place of the newest Asian Fusion restaurant hot spot in Siesta Key Fl. Within a few months, we have hosted many successful event parties in our location, but even these minor events were major exercises in project management. One of the greatest challenges to pulling off a successful event is the overall marketing strategy.
Your unique selling proposition is about building a connection with your consumers. It's not only important, but it also necessary.
All My New Creations Were Purely Out of My Love For Food
As an owner, you have got to know your customers. Your ideal target market will the be key that dictates on almost everything you do. Human, we are social creators. Knowing who our consumer is, is critical when establishing our marketing budget. Getting to know your target audience allows your marketing to be finely targeted. Your brand identity should speak to your target market, addressing their specific needs in a language they can relate to. This simple tip can go a long way. Knowing your audience is the first step to building a relationship with them.
"In Brand Marketing, Consumer Is Always A Center Of What We Do. A Brand Is A Person. It Is What People Are Saying About You When You're Not There.”

Food is a shared experience. There is an old saying that If you can’t find a common topic with a person, then try talk about food! Immediately, notice their eyes will shine and they’ll tell you all about their favorite. As a brand manager, I hold that ideal and value dearly. I also train my staff the same ideology as well.
Dominating Online Presence Is A Must!
Brand trust is loyalty. Some of the most successful brands are the most relevant brands Brand relevance comes down to trust. It's the fact that our own happiness and well-being are the most important! Sometimes organizers get so distracted marketing their event they forget that the best marketing is the buzz created by attendees who love the event. "The most important part of event marketing is creating a remarkable event.
“There is only one boss. The customer. And he can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down, simply by spending his money somewhere else.” - Sam Walton
As a host, you're responsible in helping create a sense of uniqueness that your audience can’t miss. Ask yourself...why should they attend your event? Give them a good, tangible reason to come to your event. Focus on the benefits they will get by attending your event, not the features of your event. Remember, authenticity is the top driver of consumer engagement, so make sure your event’s offerings align with your brand to create a lasting impression.

What do you offer that customers won't find anywhere else? What can spark a return visit? Is it the food? Your atmosphere? Or is it something else entirely?

Create A Wow Factor Product and Deliverance
By hosting events, you’re exposing your restaurant to new guests who then have a higher chance of coming back, so showcase what makes you unique. Some of the best examples we’ve seen range from a signed cookbook from head chef for every guest to leaving guests with a take-home box of gifts.

There is an old saying.. "Every bite takes you home..." I love that ideology so much. It's because food makes us feel good, alive and vibrant. For foodie, in addition to having a full belly, there is something very satisfying about trying new things, being exposed to new color, taste and experience.
At the restaurant, it's rare if I didn't come by each table and introduce myself. To break the ice, often times, I'd bring little gift of our samples, appetizers, cocktail shots or sweet desserts. Then watch the conversations open up. Eating out is a social thing. The majority of social activities involve food. And there is something about eating in social gathering that helps to bring people together.

Food connects us all. Food connects us to each other, to our own pasts and identities/memories, and nature and its original. Best of all, food connects us to the world around us. Again, eating is a social thing.
Once your target is defined, you can focus on your marketing plan. You will never drive the results you want by focusing all your energies on a single platform. Instead, take an approach of organized diversification, starting with email marketing and social media.

Loyalty program make consumers feel appreciated. Not only do you need loyal employees who care about your business, but you also need loyal customers to keep your business thriving into the future.
Loyalty signals consumer trust. And consumer trust means customer retention. And customer retention means business growth. In my experience, customer retention is what going to keep your business flowing during slow seasons.
