The Current Situation
The Toasted Yolk Café came to Studio Brand with a goal to increase online brand awareness to establish a strong presence throughout all of the Greater Houston area.
The Solution
The Toasted Yolk Café had aggressive plans for the restaurant’s expansion in and outside of Houston. Studio Brand organized all these goals into four tangible digital marketing plans to introduce the brand to new audiences, promote franchise growth, announce special offers, and establish the restaurant as a community staple throughout the region.
“It has been such a pleasure working with and learning from the team at Studio Brand. They believed in The Toasted Yolk form the start, and I am amazed at how quickly our dreams are becoming a reality with their help.”
— Chris Milton, Co-founder, The Toasted Yolk
PROJECT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

Studio Brand created a brand personality that formed all social media accounts (Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter), the creation of content, and personality of the brand online that audiences enjoy engaging with.

After using social media to get users into restaurant, Studio Brand increased engagement by creating table tents featuring a one-month campaign incentivizing people to post and use the hashtag #WeGotToasted on social media.
