HOW TO ATTRACT CUSTOMERS TO YOUR GHOST RESTAURANT
from Contigo C-Store
Since a ghost restaurant can’t rely on foot traffic for patrons, it is important that these businesses have tech-savvy marketing approaches. This being said, flexibility and nearly-instant gratification are two qualities that make ghost restaurants a good fit for younger customers. For that reason, it is important that your virtual restaurant has a strong online presence.
Partner With Food Delivery Apps
Many ghost restaurateurs opt to partner with take-out apps to attract customers. If you become a featured restaurant on one of these apps, you can gain exposure to customers who have the immediate intention of ordering. As a bonus, these apps arrange to pick up your customers’ food when it is ready, and they also deliver it to them. With these apps, all you need to worry about is preparing orders for delivery.
CREATE AN ATTRACTIVE, EASY-TO-USE WEBSITE
If no food ordering apps are available in your area, or if you’d prefer to handle these processes in-house, make sure that your restaurant has a quality website that is equipped with a functional online order form
If you want to try an experimental restaurant concept and you ’ re unsure about investing in a storefront, opening a ghost restaurant could be the best option for you. These cloud kitchens are becoming increasingly popular in metropolitan areas, and they cater to busy, young customers who like customization and instant gratification. You may currently have a restaurant space but have limited options during the coronavirus outbreak. By treating your kitchen space as a ghost restaurant, you will help increase sales and keep your business going during these tough times.
