FOR CAFES AND RESTAURANTS

Technology is changing the restaurant business and it's cooking a storm.  With busier lifestyles and diminishing leisure time, consumers are exhibiting an increasing appetite for restaurant dining over the last five years. Technology is changing the way consumers search for restaurants. According to Dimmi Australia Dining Index 2013, consumers are reading restaurant reviews online and looking at the restaurant's online presence like its website or social media pages. Online restaurant bookings have increased by 564% since 2011. Over 33% of all bookings, which equates to $2.6 billion are made with mobile devices and/or apps on phones. 

The increasingly fashionable image of restaurant eating has supported solid revenue growth. Technology changes the way you market your restaurant. What does your online presence say about you? How do you know what works and what doesn't? It is so important that you market to the right audience at the right time using the right tools.

Perhaps you already know the importance of marketing and technology but you just don't have the time to do it all and you do want to keep your cost down.

Let APPY-Business help you market, sell and manage your cafe or restaurant better and cheaper.
