Social Media Management for a Restaurant in Scotland
BubbaQ – an Edinburgh restaurant specialising in American cuisine. (Case study: 2017)
Despite an excellent location, the restaurant struggled to attract customers. After a thorough analysis we proposed a focused plan of action. A key part of that plan was launching targeted social-media ad campaigns.
The results were fast. Within weeks the owners saw online bookings jump from around 20 to over 200 per month.
Social Media Management – Step by Step
How our process works
We started work with BubbaQ by carrying out a detailed review of the owners’ goals. That gave us a clear understanding of the restaurant market in Edinburgh and let us set precise, measurable objectives.
Market analysis
Our work begins with a deep audit of the market, competitors and BubbaQ’s audience.
This research forms the foundation for content and ad targeting that genuinely matches customer intent.
Content planning
Once we know the market and audience, we map out core messages and a content calendar.
We plan formats and distribution to maximise reach and engagement around the restaurant.
Content creation
With a defined strategy we create engaging posts, visuals and ads that speak directly to people likely to visit BubbaQ.
This focused approach reduces wasted ad spend and drives real interest.
Monitoring & optimisation
Every campaign is monitored in real time. We adjust creative, targeting and bids to stay ahead of trends and improve results continuously.

Delivering on our goals, by the numbers
Work on this project was intensive and the outcomes exceeded the restaurant owners’ highest expectations. Within just a few weeks the restaurant achieved noticeably higher visibility.
As our work continued, the client saw a clear rise in website visits and most crucially, an increase in profits.
This shows how strategic planning and well-executed social media and ad campaigns can directly boost a hospitality business.
After a Month
Facebook Ads Statistics
After just one month our targeted Facebook campaign delivered measurable results. With a monthly ad spend of only £100, our ds reached 149,949 people, nearly a 500% increase compared with the period before we started.
The restaurant also gained new followers and saw audience engagement rise by more than 100%.
This proves that a strategic, data-led approach to social media advertising can deliver substantial results in a very short time.

Example Facebook Posts
Social media content that transforms your brand
Social media content is more than posting updates. It shapes how people see your brand, builds relationships with your audience and shares useful knowledge that positions you as an expert in your field.
Keeping your social profiles up to date shows visitors that your business is active and ready to help. Regular content also supports your organic search presence and helps more potential customers find you online.
