Proposals for local restaurants
Event days are a “special opportunity to attract customers” when the movement of people in the area increases. For restaurants, it is effective to open earlier on the day, increase take-out options, and make signs and menus easier for passersby to see. Social media posts (Instagram and Google Business Profile) that include the event name and related keywords also directly lead to attracting customers. In addition, preparing menus in foreign languages such as English can also attract tourists and foreign visitors.
