01 / THE OPPORTUNITY

A neighborhood story worth discovering.

Il Violino is an established Italian trattoria on Manhattan's Upper West Side. The opportunity was to translate its in-person character into a clearer digital identity—and connect the restaurant to the occasions, conversations, and people in its neighborhood.

The approach combines consistent restaurant storytelling, short-form content, local discovery, campaign development, and measurement of actions that can signal customer interest.

Strategy + hands-on execution
02 / EARLY RESULTS

Signals beyond the scroll.

Google Business Profile activity increased during the first 25 days of October, compared with the full month of September. These are observed account results during the engagement—not proof that any single marketing action caused the change.

Source: Google Business Profile figures recorded in the supplied case-study draft on October 25, 2026. September 1–30 compared with October 1–25. Booking counts reflect Google-reported actions; they are not independently verified completed visits.

Additional Google-reported bookings compared with September

Why it matters: Bookings, direction requests, and website clicks are closer to customer intent than social engagement alone. The next measurement step is linking these actions to confirmed reservations and restaurant revenue.

THE JOURNEY CONTINUES AT THE TABLE

01 · Occasion

Position Il Violino as a gathering place for runners, families, and supporters near Central Park.

02 · Menu strategy

Pre- and post-race prix fixe concepts using existing menu items rather than creating an entirely new kitchen offering.

03 · Participation

A guest story board and optional medal- or bib-inspired moments designed around human connection.

04 · Promotion

Teaser content, food-led video, and a reservation-focused communication approach.

Campaign elements are presented as concepts/development work; implementation, participation, and sales results have not yet been confirmed.

05 / CONTENT & AUDIENCE

Making the work measurable.

The 90-day Instagram view captures an audience baseline and recent activity. Because most of that period precedes October 1, these totals are context—not results attributable to Edme Enterprises LLC.

Discovery & interest

41.2%

Of views came from non-followers. The account also registered 398 profile visits and 24 external link taps in the 90-day view.

These are platform actions, not confirmed bookings. Monthly comparisons and reservation attribution will be added as the data becomes available.

06 / THE APPROACH

Creative decisions with a business purpose.

The guiding question is not merely “Does the post look good?” It is “Does this give someone a reason to discover, consider, or visit the restaurant?”

DISCOVER

Meet customers where they look.

Improve local visibility and build awareness beyond existing followers.

CONSIDER

Show a reason to visit.

Use real food, authentic restaurant moments, and relevant occasions to move people from browsing to interest.

ACT

Measure meaningful behavior.

Track taps, calls, direction requests, Google bookings, and eventually confirmed reservations and sales.
