Hey there, tech-savvy restaurateurs! In this fast-paced digital world, customers are hopping from one platform to another, expecting to find your mouthwatering dishes everywhere they go. The name of the game? Omnichannel strategy. We've got five juicy tips that’ll help you play like a pro.

1 - Bring your orders online

Alright, step one. Let's face it, if you're not online, you're not in line with your customers' expectations.

Online ordering helps your customers find you on Google, social platforms, or even by scanning a fancy QR code. And guess what? You can even throw in some extras - pre-made meals, cocktail kits, or branded merchandise to diversify your income and make your brand pop.

Tip: WOWAPPS has your back with easy-to-use online ordering systems that can get your restaurant in the digital world in no time.

Next up, let's chat about your new best friends: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter. They're perfect for showing off your restaurant’s interior, those drool-worthy food photos, and yes, even your retail items. But the cherry on top? You can allow your customers to order directly from these platforms.

3 - Google? You bet!

To reach your customers, you've got to be seen where they're looking. And according to Google, 89% of dining research is done by mobile before visiting a restaurant. By ensuring your online platform integrates with Google, customers can discover your restaurant and place orders directly from their search results.

4 - Marketing & loyalty - Automated!

Stay connected with your diners even when they're lounging at home. How? Think automated email and text message marketing. It's like sending friendly reminders about new menu items, awesome promotions, or an exciting new location. Plus, let's not forget about loyalty programs - because who doesn't love a good reward?
