Food & restaurants / Our process

The appetite-to-return-visit programme.

Inspect the purpose, deliverable and handoff at each stage of the customer journey.

How guests find and choose you

The restaurant marketing funnel.
Seven steps, one journey.

Every stage is a place guests can be lost. We look at the whole path—not just the ads at the top.

Tested before it is accepted

A demo that works once
is not a system.

Every journey we implement is tested against what goes wrong in real life, with a named owner for each case.

Test 01

A duplicate enquiry arrives

It is merged and the person is contacted once, by one owner.

Test 02

The requested slot, item or date is unavailable

The person is told honestly and offered the nearest real alternative.

Test 03

A message fails to send

The failure is logged and a named person follows up another way.

Test 04

The assigned staff member is on leave

The enquiry is reassigned automatically to a named back-up.

Test 05

The customer opts out

Automated messages stop at once and the opt-out is recorded.

Test 06

A price, offer or detail changes

Every channel is updated from one source, and old offers are withdrawn.

Measurement with context

Track the next action.
Not a convenient assumption.

Proposed measureHow it should be interpreted
Tracked order or reservation handoffsAgreed source and qualification criteria; remove duplicates.
Relevant local enquiriesClient team records the actual next action, not merely a click.
Client-recorded repeat visitsUse available operational records; do not infer an outcome from traffic.
Feedback themes addressedReview status and cancellations where relevant; document attribution gaps.
The next considered step

A reason to return.
