In March of 2017 my husband and I launched Nekeats.com. This is a website that provides a full scale content marketing strategy that brings traffic to restaurants, puts them in front of a warm, responsive, local audience through content, and gains them new customers.The website lists all restaurants in a specific geographical region offering visitors the information they need. Restaurant reviews and useful articles, further provide viewers with relevant content. Paying restaurants get keyworded profiles and images (all with on page SEO), and their menu on an individual page, featured reviews, inclusion in menu guides and more. While the website is optimized for search traffic, social media is optimized to build a responsive local audience that is loyal to the NEK Eats brand and the content we serve. All articles, features, menu guides, and food images are created by me and get significant traffic and engagement on Facebook by a 80%+ local audience. This strategy allows restaurants with small marketing budgets a much larger reach for their money, and to an audience that is interested in restaurants and their events.This business has become profitable in 4 years, even through Covid-19. The strategy has built a loyal and responsive audience on social media, and gains many more hits and views organically through search engines and shares. The strategies used on the website and in content building have also landed the website on page 1 of most Google searches for information about dining or restaurants in the geographical region the site caters to. And images are often some of the top Google images in those searches.This project has used many of the skills I've learned over the last 10+ years in Marketing, Design, and Strategy to create a growing audience, loyal following, and a tool that is useful to the general public as well as local businesses.View the Website Here: https://nekeats.com/View the Social Media Strategy Here: https://www.facebook.com/nekeats

With over 20 years of combined writing, marketing, and coding experience, Red Designs creates Reproducible Effective Digital (RED) solutions for modern businesses.We are a full service marketing agency, offering copywriting, social media marketing, digital advertising, video creation, graphic and logo design, website design, custom digital solutions, and more. But what we really specialize in, what I specialize in, is overall marketing strategy, planning, and implementation. I will help your business know where it is going, and how it will get there. We set up strategies and systems that translate into a smooth customer journey.After years of working for other companies, helping them with their clients, I realized there are two fundamental problems with modern marketing. 1. For most companies it is only about making money and moving on. 2. Most companies approach marketing with a one size fits all approach. Often, agencies offer no customization, little to no personal touch. They apply the latest greatest marketing trends even when these trends do not fit the business. This doesn't work, and for small to mid-sized businesses, it can even be detrimental.For these reasons, I set out to build relationships between customers and the business. This customer driven approach focuses on mutual service, not sales, as the catalyst for building lifetime customers in a way that uses how people naturally do business and naturally interact with one another as the foundation for everything else. My background in journalism and traditional layout gives me a unique approach to copywriting, marketing strategy, and design - one that resonates with people because it is grounded in truth and how people naturally interact, not sales, flash, and trends.This makes for systems that work, and can be recreated.My goal is to help you business bring in more people so you can live a life that includes more fun and less work - 'cause isn't that what we all are looking for?
