Our Approach
Persist Digital team approached the client’s asks by creating a unique digital marketing strategy, custom tailored to their specific needs and goals. Our ultimate goal was to drive reach, awareness, and conversions through web design and its special functionalities, content and branded storytelling, outreach, reputation management, social media marketing, and email marketing.
We built out a digital marketing strategy that attracted people who were looking for delicious and simple meals, conveniently located near their place of work in the San Francisco Bay Area and Financial District.
SINI needed a website that would reflect the vibe and atmosphere of their restaurant and overall digital visibility to get the word out and establish authenticity. The objective was for the new web design to be all about the authentic and tasty Mediterranean food. We worked their existing palette of striking shades of yellow and black, building out their brand story through lively photos of their tasty eats, their unique restaurant interior buzzing with energy, their happy guests, and staff. Each website page uses modern typography and attractive images to convey their welcoming message. The new SINI website is mobile-friendly, location-driven user experience. Visitors can quickly see current menus, hours, features, catering options, private dining options, and more. Blog content delivers informational and relevant content to each visitor.

In only 10 months, we helped SINI to go from $0 in online sales to more than $4,300 per month. Currently, their website is ranking for 525 keywords and it attracts more than 600 organic visitors a month. Before Persist Digital, no one was visiting their social media channels; now they have close to 400 visits per month. We also boosted their SEO on a local level, which was one of their most important goals. Now they have close to 30.000 searches from Google My Business and 53.700 total views on search results, 10.900 views on search, 42.800 views on maps, 500 direction requests per month, and 50 phone calls per month.
