Reels are carrying both accounts, and Hanna's the one posting them.
People reached by a typical post since July 1.
The Lounge reached 6,595 accounts in the last 30 days on 1,594 followers. One reel reached 4,694 by itself.
Oakhouse's two best posts since July are both a bartender building a drink: the Old Fashioned (Fri 10/2, 2,674 reached) and the Coquito del Norte (Fri 9/18, 1,349). One drink a week, shot at the bar, and Hanna posts it.
ASK Which drinks do they want pushed this fall?
The Rigatoni Bolognese post (Sat 9/26) reached 744 with 7 shares, about double a normal photo. The two chef's-plates carousels from July got 1,231 and 860. Only two of those, so promising, not proven.
ASK What's new on the fall menu and when does it land? I'll shoot each dish the week it starts.
New Year's Eve is a Thursday this year, a normal open night. Anything they want to sell needs to be on OpenTable by early November.
ASK A NYE dinner? Anything Thanksgiving week? (Dates below.)
The Lounge's top three posts since July are all funny phone reels: the "are you sure this is diet?" skit (Wed 9/16, 4,694 reached, 23 shares), the coworker meme (Wed 10/7, 1,713 and climbing) and the "reasons to drink" one (Sat 9/12, 1,134). That's the Lounge's voice working.
ASK What would make more of these easy? Time on shift, someone to film?
Band cards are slipping: the last four reached 124 to 173. The 9/12 reel put "live music tonight" in its caption and reached 1,134. On music nights a fun reel carries the news, and the card keeps the name, date and time.
Every usable Lounge photo has now gone up at least once (49 of 49, checked 10/7), so every photo post from here is a repeat until we shoot again. Best is a Thursday or Friday music night with people in it. Not this Saturday, the Lounge is closed for the buyout.
ASK Which night works in the next two weeks?
Neither website mentions gift cards. If they sell them, I'll add them to both sites and we push them from Thanksgiving to Christmas.
ASK Do they sell gift cards, and can people buy them online?
A small QR code that goes straight to the Google review page. In June Oakhouse had 4.5 stars on 46 reviews and the Lounge 4.3 on 27 (the June audit, not re-checked). More reviews is the cheapest way into the top three on Google Maps.
HalloweenCostume night at the Lounge? Needs a yes by mid-October to promote it.
Night before ThanksgivingOne of the biggest bar nights of the year, and the Lounge has no music on Wednesdays. Book a band?
ThanksgivingOpen or closed? Both are normally open Thursdays.
Christmas Eve and Christmas DayOpen or closed either day?
New Year's EveOakhouse dinner on OpenTable, a Lounge party? Decide by early November.
