From Restaurant Launch to Viral Growth
From strategy to virality —here is how we helped Birmingham’s hottest new restaurant blow up online.
The Challenge
Mr G’z approached us before launching, with a vision:
Launch with impact, build hype, and stand out in a competitive food scene.
They had:
Zero presence on Instagram.
12K dormant followers on TikTok.
No content strategy or marketing plan.
They needed a full social media launch strategy that would generate buzz, drive traffic from day one, and build a loyal, engaged audience.
Our Approach
We crafted and executed a full 360° social media strategy, covering every stage of launch and beyond:
- Pre-Launch Planning
Developed a custom restaurant launch strategy to create hype and drive demand before opening.
Built a tailored influencer marketing plan, targeting Birmingham’s top food creators.
Created teaser-style content to stir curiosity and anticipation.
- Influencer Event Execution
Planned and hosted an exclusive influencer launch event before opening to the public.
Filmed and edited:
A cinematic teaser trailer (pre-event)
A full influencer event trailer — filmed, edited, and delivered within 24 hours.
Invited top-tier food influencers to attend, review, and share.
- Post-Launch Content Strategy
Rolled out a content calendar featuring:
Informational videos (e.g. how to order, where to park, food prep)
Entertaining & relatable content tailored for TikTok & Instagram
Offers and food box promotions
Created responsive content based on feedback — like transitioning from takeaway boxes to plates and announcing it in a fun, viral format.
