2018 is the year of restaurant email marketing

2018 is the year email marketing will become essential for restaurants, says industry media company, The Rail.
They believe this year email will overtake Facebook as the marketing tool every restaurant will need to utilise.

Facebook organic reach

In 2017, as every restaurant with a Facebook page will know, Facebook drastically limited organic reach for business pages meaning any who want their post to be seen by their target audience will need to pay for it.
Understandable – Facebook need to profit from their platform somehow (Mark Zuckerberg’s hoodies are not going to pay for themselves).
But this means email marketing has become drastically more important for restaurants.

Restaurant email marketing

“Email is the platform that guarantees your communication will be presented to your followers,” The Rail said. “Even if it’s only your sending address and subject line they read you are at least gaining their attention for a few seconds.”
“Every email address is like currency in the battle to speak to consumers and give them reasons to visit your restaurant. Smart operators will focus on gathering email addresses and regular communicating with their guests.”
