Restaurant Leadership Growth Series Session 1: Marketing That Brings the Right Customers Back (2PM)

Description

The first session of the Restaurant Leadership Growth Series, presented in partnership with The Fractional Executive Network, is designed specifically for restaurant owners and operators who want a clearer, more strategic approach to attracting the right customers and bringing them back.

During this 90-minute session, participants will explore practical ways to increase local awareness, strengthen customer loyalty, and turn attention into repeat traffic.

We’ll dig into:

• How to position your restaurant so it stands out from nearby alternatives
• A practical approach to social media, reviews, and reputation management
• Promotions that drive traffic without training customers to wait for a discount
• Community partnerships and local visibility opportunities
• Building a marketing calendar that connects your promotions to actual business goals

This is not a session about posting more just for the sake of posting more. It’s about giving restaurant leaders a more focused way to think about marketing, customer loyalty, and where their time and dollars can have the greatest impact.
