Social Media Management: Baking Up Engagement for a Local Bakery
The Challenge
Sweet Crumbs Bakery, a beloved local shop in a small town, struggled to maintain a consistent online presence. With limited staff and time, their social media accounts were rarely updated, missing opportunities to attract new customers.
- Inconsistent posting on social media platforms
- Lack of engaging content to showcase daily specials
- No strategy to reach local customers online
- Missed opportunities for seasonal promotions
