USING+SOCIAL+MEDIA+MARKETING


 * Social media can be a powerful tool to get your restaurant "liked" by a wider community.**

Many businesses use social media to post timely messages that customers find beneficial and want to share with friends. Your customers are connected to many other people who are potential customers. To get online traffic "in the door" of your restaurant, you will need to continually post new and interesting information.

You will create a table listing ideas for social media messages. They can include text, photos, video, hyperlinks, or other information that might interest your customers.


 * Strategies:**
 * Research restaurant social media sites and see what types of information they share with customers. (You will need to access Facebook sites at home)
 * Think about what types of your restaurant's target audience might like to see on Facebook or Twitter.
 * Incorporate in your posts what studies have shown people like to see most: pictures, status updates, and links.
