CaminitoAs far as our ROI on social media efforts, of

course it’s always hard to determine that. But,

what I do know is that since we turned our

focus to social media, attracting inbound links,

more internet marketing/less print advertising,

etc., we have seen an approximate 30

percent boost in sales (year to date) in a

time where a lot of restaurants are down 10-

20 percent. Not all of that can be attributed to

our online presence but I’m sure a good

portion of it can. The blog and social media

outposts help us reach and interact with our

community as well as show our expertise in

our space. I have done some research and

can’t find anyone in our area (or in general)

that’s doing what we’re doing as a restaurant.” Justin Levy
