Social Media Tips

Dealing with Bad Reviews

Dealing with complaints

• Address negative comments very quickly.

• Have a process in place to resolve the issue directly.

• The company should respond once in public, and if the person stays negative, they switch to DM and then to email or phone if needed.

• It is a chance to turn someone into an ambassador of the brand.

This customer was one out of many great reviews. Leaving bad reviews up there makes this review page much more

real and authentic. This is a good example of how a company responded to show they care.

75%of Brand ‘Likes’ on Facebook come from advertisements.

Instead of attracting customers with deals, many restaurants strive to use social media for a tailored, personal experience.

People love to go into a restaurant or bar and know the owner or the chef.

Reveal How Dishes Are Made

Allow people at home to feel more involved and engaged with that you are trying to deliver.

Get To Know Your Chefs

People love to learn about cooking. Be theExpert.

That’s why chefs like Joanne Chang of Boston’s Myers and Chang and Flour Bakery personally tweet photos of the kitchen staff at work.

If you’re in a PR firm, you’re not going to get the same feel.

Opening Communication Between Diners and Chefs

The more you know about who is coming into your restaurant, the better you will be able to make them feel happy,

Play Your Strengths Whether it’s quality, convenience, your image, or low prices, social media provides ways to simply and effectively play to your strengths.

Fast food leaders Chipotle and Pizza Hut have both implemented applications for ordering through the iPhone.

These particular applications play to the strength of the fast food industry — convenience.

Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s are targeting consumers that lets them earn rewards for checking in at the fast food restaurants.

GPS- app that drive checkins, social media interfaces, a restaurant locator and rewards.
