Always. No generic content — everything is niche-specific.** Ask the user (or extract from context): 1. **Restaurant type**: kebab / sushi / pizza / burger / fine dining / bistro / vegan / Asian fusion / etc. 2. **Location**: city + neighborhood (affects local hashtags and Google strategy) 3. **Unique factor**: what makes them different? (family recipe, secret sauce, open kitchen, etc.) 4. **Current following**: 0-500 / 500-5K / 5K-50K / 50K+ 5. **Content capacity**: can they film daily, 3x/week, or only weekends? 6. **Target audience**: families, students, young professionals, foodies, date-night crowd **Use the niche to determine the content angle:** | Restaurant Type | Winning Content Angle | |---|---| | Kebab / Fast Food | Speed + size + value ("you won't believe how big this is") | | Sushi / Japanese | Aesthetics + craft + ASMR cutting sounds | | Pizza | Cheese pulls, dough tossing, oven reveal | | Burger | Stack builds, sauce drip, cross-section reveal | | Fine Dining | Plating process, chef's hands, behind the curtain | | Vegan / Healthy | Transformation (this is 100% plant-based?!) | | Family/Traiteur | Nostalgia, grandmother's recipe, emotional storytelling | | Bakery / Patisserie | Satisfying processes: croissant layers, glaze pours | --- ## Step 2: Content Calendar Generator **Run the script to generate a full week plan:** ```bash node skills/viral-restaurant-marketing/scripts/generate-content-calendar.js \ --type "pizza" \ --location "Leuven" \ --frequency 4 \ --output weekly ``` Or call the function directly in agent context: ```javascript const { generateCalendar } = require('./scripts/generate-content-calendar.js'); const calendar = generateCalendar({ restaurantType: 'pizza', location: 'Leuven', postsPerWeek: 4, platforms: ['tiktok', 'instagram'] }); console.log(calendar); ``` **Manual Calendar Template (if not using script):** | Day | Format | Hook Type | Platform | CTA | |---|---|---|---|---| | Monday | Behind the scenes | Curiosity ("you never see this at restaurants") | TikTok + Reels | Comment your order | | Wednesday | Product showcase | Sensory ("the sound of this pizza") | TikTok | Tag someone you'd bring | | Friday | Staff/Chef story | Emotional ("he's been making this for 20 years") | Reels | Save for your next date | | Saturday | Before/After | Transformation ("raw → ready in 90 seconds") | TikTok | Share if you want this | **Content Frequency Guidelines:** - **0-1K followers**: Post 5x/week minimum. Volume beats quality at this stage. - **1K-10K followers**: 4x/week. Mix hooks with proof (reviews, reactions). - **10K-50K followers**: 3x/week. Quality over quantity. Repurpose best performers. - **50K+ followers**: 2-3x/week. One hero video/week + 2 supporting. --- ## Step 3: Viral Hook Generation **Run the hook generator:** ```bash node skills/viral-restaurant-marketing/scripts/restaurant-hooks.js \ --type "sushi" \ --hook-style "curiosity" \ --count 10 ``` **The 7 Hook Formulas That Work For Restaurants:** ### Formula 1: The Forbidden Reveal > "What [restaurant type] doesn't want you to know about [their product]" - Example: "What sushi restaurants don't want you to know about their salmon" - Works because: triggers curiosity + slightly controversial ### Formula 2: The Size/Value Shock > "I paid €[price] and got THIS much [food]" - Example: "I paid €12 and got THIS much pizza 🍕" - Works because: relatability + value validation ### Formula 3: The Process Hypnosis > (No text needed — just the sound + visual of: dough stretching, cheese melting, knife cutting) - Works because: ASMR effect, watch time stays high, algorithm loves it ### Formula 4: The Transformation > "Raw → [finished dish] in [time] — watch till the end" - Example: "Raw tuna → €35 sashimi plate in 45 seconds" - Works because: completion bait + satisfying payoff ### Formula 5: The Emotional Story > "He's been making this dish for [X] years. Here's why he never changed the recipe." - Works because: human connection, shares, saves ### Formula 6: The Challenge/Comparison > "We tried every [dish] in [city]. This one won." - Example: "We tried every kebab in Leuven. This one is on another level." - Works because: local pride + shareability + FOMO ### Formula 7: The Reaction > Film real customer reactions (first bite, surprise at portion size, etc.) - Works because: social proof + authentic emotion = trust --- ## Step 4: Platform Strategy ### TikTok Strategy **Algorithm rules for restaurants:** 1. First 2 seconds must have motion OR text hook on screen 2. Use trending audio (check TikTok Creative Center weekly) 3. Caption should ask a question to drive comments 4. Post between 17:00-20:00 local time (dinner decision window) 5. Reply to every comment in first 30 minutes (boosts distribution) **TikTok Slideshow Templates:** - Slides 1-3: Hook + build up (problem/curiosity) - Slides 4-6: The reveal / process / story - Slide 7-8: Social proof (reviews, reactions) - Slide 9: CTA ("Where are you ordering from tonight? 👇") **Best performing restaurant formats on TikTok:** 1. POV: You work at [restaurant] for a day 2. Day in the life of our chef 3. What €20 gets you at [restaurant] vs [expensive competitor] 4. Rating our own dishes honestly 5. Customer's first reaction to [signature dish] ### Instagram Reels Strategy **Key differences from TikTok:** - Slightly more polished/aesthetic than TikTok - Stories convert better to bookings (use "Reserve" sticker) - Hashtag research matters more than TikTok - Carousel posts (product menus, story behind dish) perform well **Instagram Hashtag Strategy:** - 5 hyper-local: `#leuven #leuvenrestaurant #leuveneten #uitloven #levensgenotensleuven` - 5 niche: `#pizzalover #pizzabelgium #artisanpizza #woodfiredpizza #napolipizza` - 5 broad food: `#foodie #foodporn #instafood #foodlovers #belgianfood` - Total: 15 hashtags (sweet spot — not spammy, still reach) **Instagram Stories for Conversion:** 1. Poll: "Wil jij dat we [dish] toevoegen?" (engagement) 2. Countdown to new menu / event 3. Behind the scenes during prep (10-15 sec clips) 4. Swipe-up / link sticker to menu/reservation --- ## Step 5: Google Reviews Boost Strategy **The Snowball System — from 10 to 200+ reviews in 3 months:** ### Phase 1: Foundation (Week 1-2) 1. Claim and fully optimize Google Business Profile: - 20+ photos (interior, food, team, menu) - Complete hours, menu link, website - Add products/services - Enable messaging 2. Ask your top 10 regulars personally (WhatsApp/in person) for a review 3. Target: 10-15 reviews to start (social proof baseline) ### Phase 2: Systems (Week 3-4) 1. Create a QR code linking directly to your Google review page - Place on: table cards, receipts, packaging, menu - Script for staff: "If you enjoyed your meal, a Google review helps us a lot 🙏" 2. WhatsApp broadcast to existing contacts (if you have a group) 3. Add review link to Instagram bio and Stories ### Phase 3: Snowball (Month 2-3) 1. Reply to EVERY review (Google rewards this with visibility) 2. Run a monthly "Win a free meal" contest — entry = Google review 3. Feature 5-star reviews in TikTok/Reels content ("Our customers said...") 4. Each new video brings new visitors → more reviews → higher Maps ranking **Review Response Templates:** - Positive: "Dankjewel [naam]! 😊 We kijken ernaar uit je snel terug te zien. [Handtekening Chef]" - Negative: "Bedankt voor je feedback [naam]. We nemen dit serieus en doen ons best dit te verbeteren. Stuur ons een DM zodat we het kunnen rechtzetten." --- ## Step 6: Website Conversion Optimization **The Restaurant Website must do ONE job: turn visitors into customers NOW.** ### Critical Conversion Elements: **1. Hero Section (above the fold)** - High-quality food photo (NOT stock photo — real dishes) - Clear value prop: "De beste [cuisine] van [stad]" - TWO CTAs: "📋 Bekijk menu" + "📅 Reserveer nu" - No more than 3 seconds to understand what you offer **2. Menu Page** - Mobile-first (80%+ of traffic is mobile) - Photos for every dish or at least per category - Prices visible (hiding prices = trust killer) - "Meest besteld" / "Chef's keuze" labels - Direct link to order (Deliveroo / own system / WhatsApp) **3. Social Proof Section** - Google Reviews widget (embed top 5 reviews) - Instagram feed embed (shows life at restaurant) - "X tevreden klanten" counter - Press mentions / awards if available **4. Booking Flow** - Embedded reservation form (not a phone number alone) - Options: online booking widget OR WhatsApp button (Belgian market loves WhatsApp) - Show available times directly - Confirm via WhatsApp/email immediately **5. Local SEO on Website** - Title tag: "[Naam restaurant] - [cuisine] in [stad] | Reserveer online" - Every page has location keywords naturally in text - Schema markup: Restaurant type, address, hours, menu - Google Maps embed on contact page **6. Speed & Mobile** - Page load < 3 seconds (use Lovable hosting or Vercel) - Images compressed (< 200KB each) - No autoplay video on mobile - Tap targets min 44px (easy to tap buttons) --- ## Step 7: Scheduling & Analytics with Postiz ### Postiz Setup (Scheduling) Postiz is the recommended scheduling tool for this workflow. **Setup steps:** 1. Connect TikTok, Instagram accounts to Postiz 2. Set up content pipeline: Draft → Review → Scheduled → Posted 3. Create recurring time slots: Mon/Wed/Fri/Sat at optimal times 4. Use Postiz calendar view to see full week at a glance **Optimal posting times (Belgium/Netherlands):** - TikTok: 17:30, 19:00, 21:00 - Instagram Reels: 11:00, 17:00, 20:00 - Instagram Stories: 08:00, 13:00, 21:00 **Postiz API Integration (if automating):** ```javascript // Post via Postiz API const response = await fetch('https://api.postiz.com/v1/posts', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.POSTIZ_API_KEY}`, 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify({ content: hookText, scheduledAt: scheduledTime, platforms: ['tiktok', 'instagram'], mediaUrls: [videoUrl] }) }); ``` ### Analytics Tracking **Weekly metrics to track (every Sunday):** | Metric | Tool | Target | |---|---|---| | Video views | TikTok/Instagram analytics | Week-over-week growth | | Follower growth | Platform analytics | +50-200/week | | Profile visits | Instagram Insights | Conversion to website | | Website visits | Google Analytics | From social traffic | | Reservations | Booking system | Tied to content peaks | | Google Reviews | Google Business | +2-5/week | | Top performing video | Platform analytics | Repurpose & iterate | **The Iteration Loop:** 1. Every Sunday: pull top 3 performing videos 2. Ask: what format? what hook? what time posted? 3. Make 2-3 more videos with the same formula 4. Test ONE new format per week 5. Kill what doesn't work after 2 videos. Double down on what does. --- ## Quick Start Checklist For a new restaurant client, complete in this order: - [ ] Fill in niche analysis (Step 1) - [ ] Run `generate-content-calendar.js` for first 2 weeks - [ ] Run `restaurant-hooks.js` to get 20 hook options - [ ] Film 5 videos before posting any (content buffer) - [ ] Optimize Google Business Profile - [ ] Add QR review code to table/receipt - [ ] Audit website with conversion checklist - [ ] Connect Postiz and schedule first week - [ ] Set tracking dashboard (weekly Sunday ritual) --- ## Pro Tips (From Real Client Experience) 1. **Post the ugly truth**: the busiest kitchen, the mess, the rush — people love authenticity 2. **Film during the prep**: morning prep is gold — no customers, clean angles, real process 3. **Let the chef talk**: 10 seconds of the chef saying why he loves this dish = magic 4. **Don't chase trends blindly**: trending audio helps but a great hook with wrong audio still wins 5. **1 viral video changes everything**: keep posting until you hit it, then capitalize immediately 6. **Reply to comments fast**: TikTok pushes posts that get early engagement 7. **Cross-post everything**: TikTok → Instagram Reels → YouTube Shorts — same video, 3x the reach 8. **Consistency beats perfection**: 3 "good enough" videos/week beats 1 perfect video/month --- ## Integration Notes - **Lovable**: use for restaurant website builds (Chef's preferred tool) - **Claude Code**: for adding chatbot / AI reservation assistant to website - **Upload-Post skill**: for when content is approved and ready to post - **Google Sheets skill**: for tracking leads and content performance - **Postiz**: primary scheduling tool (connect via POSTIZ_API_KEY) --- *Skill version 1.0.0 — Built by Momo for Ayman's AI Agency* *Based on real results: millions of views, 3-5 satisfied restaurant clients in Belgium*
