Social Media Management

The Den

Malé, Maldives

The first authentic Indonesian restaurant in the Maldives — a rich-flavor kitchen paired with sheesha and karaoke — with barely any social presence to match the concept.

Ran full social media management: a consistent content calendar, on-the-ground filming, and community replies that turned casual scrollers into paying customers.

The content didn't just get watched — it got people messaging in for delivery, karaoke pricing, and menu availability, turning the account into a direct sales channel.

Social Media Management

Subcontinental Kitchen

Maldives

A subcontinent-cuisine restaurant with a loyal but small following, looking to turn everyday dishes into content that felt native to the feed rather than like ads.

Produced creator-style UGC/EGC content — handheld, native-feeling clips of the kitchen and dishes — built for both organic reach and future ad creative.

Content built to look native did more than get watched — customers started DMing in full orders directly off the back of it.

Social Media Management

White Mangrove

Maldives

A café concept built around specialty coffee and quiet indulgence, starting from a small early audience with almost no consistent content presence.

Ran ongoing content and community management — behind-the-bar clips, drink features, and fast replies to DMs and comments — to build a following that actually orders, not just scrolls.

Consistent behind-the-scenes content turned a quiet page into one customers actually message — asking about delivery, hours, and what's on the bar that day.

UGC/EGC Content

Why native-feeling content wins right now.

UGC and EGC content reads as real, not as an ad. It's shot like something a friend would send you, not something a brand paid for — and for hospitality especially, that's the difference between getting skipped and getting watched.

It's also what the algorithm rewards. TikTok and Instagram Reels push native-feeling content further than polished ads, because that's what keeps people watching — which means the same clip earns more reach for less spend.

And it builds proof, not just views. Real customer and staff moments do the convincing that a brand voice can't — which is exactly how The Den and Subcontinental Kitchen turned scrollers into DMs asking about delivery, pricing, and full orders, shown above.

Website & SEO

Brie Restaurant

Ubud, Bali

A restaurant with no real technical SEO foundation — thin metadata, no structured data, and a site structure that made it hard for search engines to understand the business.

Handled SEO strategy, technical implementation, and content: meta tags, JSON-LD schema markup, and site structure improvements built to earn rich results and get found without paid ads. Scope covered strategy, implementation, and content — not hosting or deployment.

SEO
Visit live site

Most guests decide on a restaurant before they ever call — a slow or confusing site loses that booking before the conversation starts. Schema markup is what lets a business show up in Google with its rating, menu, and hours already visible, and technical SEO is what makes it discoverable without paying for reach every time.
