The new year is rolling around, and it is important to keep your business updated and fresh. In this day and age of the internet, marketing has become a fast-growing field, and this year is no different. The internet is the most important tool to find reliable sources and businesses.

Having a well-designed website is a key part of keeping up your internet profile. Your website is what drives all of your traffic, and where future and present clients can learn about what you do as a business. Potential clients are able to find all your basic information from your website, so maintaining your information and having it easily digestible helps clients easily navigate your website and find your socials.

Your logo reflects your brand and is vital to your website. Your brand identity is what people know you by when they see it on signs, shirts, or any other branding. Making sure your logo is unique and stands out is important in making sure you are remembered when people need your specific type of service. Having a clean updated logo will keep your brand in the minds of clients when they need your specific service.

Digital branding is an important step in social media marketing. Exciting and interesting content that pertains to your brand and your services can create traffic for your social media platforms, and create new clients for your business. It is important your social media is tailored to your desired clientele, and maintains traction in your business. Social media is the best tool for your growth and recognition, as there are various ways you can utilize its features to reach your targeted audience.

Physical branding is essential to your business’s recognition. The use of well-made business cards, t-shirts, billboards, and other various merchandise is how everyday items will display your brand and its identity. Having a strong and consistent brand that displays your logo, coloring, and fonts will make your business stand out to potential clients through everyday merchandise.

Finding the Right Combination of Hashtags for your Restaurant’s Social Media Pages

Smart Marketing of SC Restaurant Digital Marketing

One of the fastest ways to increase the visibility of your restaurant posts to social media websites such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter is finding the right combination of hashtags to incorporate!

Hashtags are useful for finding those potential customers who are on the market looking for businesses such as yours. By adding hashtags to your posts you are able to increase your post engagement. One study showed that by adding just a single hashtag, a post’s engagement went up by 12.6% – Finding the right combination of hashtags is also crucial for your business. By using hashtags with a lot of posts you are increasing your contents chances of being seen, but you also don’t want your content to be lost in the thousands of other posts to that hashtag.

It is beneficial to include more personalized hashtags with those more popular hashtags. Adding hashtags that are particular to your business allow customers to easily find your other content. They also make it easier to find your business’s page, as Instagram now allows companies to include active hashtags in their bios!

It is also recommended to use long tail hashtags over short tail hashtags. Long tail hashtags are hashtags over three words that are more specific about a topic such as #andersonscmarketingagency instead of #restaurant. By using more specific hashtags it increases your chances of finding customers who are more interested in your product over those who are just causally scrolling through social media.

Unsure what hashtags to use for your business? A great way to get ideas of what may work for you is to look to your closest competition for inspiration. It is important not to directly copy your competition as that is not good business practice but drawing inspiration for a general idea of what works is not frowned upon.

Still unsure what hashtags to use? Let us help!
