Why Hospitality Brands Choose Us

An agency that speaks hospitality fluently.

Most agencies treat hospitality like any other client. They don't understand covers, RevPAR, seasonal menus, or why your Tuesday content strategy should look nothing like your Saturday one. We do. Jude's decade of global hospitality experience means we know the difference between marketing a 20-seat wine bar and a 200-room resort - and we build campaigns accordingly.

We work with the platforms your venues already use - SevenRooms, ResDiary, OpenTable - and we build content strategies around the rhythm of your business. Pre-service, post-service, seasonal launches, chef collaborations, event coverage. Every piece of content is built to drive bookings, not just likes.

What We Deliver

Full-service creative for Sydney hospitality.

Positioning, identity and brand guidelines for hotels, restaurants and bars. We define what makes your venue worth choosing - then build a visual identity that delivers on that promise across every touchpoint.

02
Content Creation & Direction

Photography, video and design under Jude's creative direction. Menu shoots, venue atmosphere, team profiles, event coverage - produced on-site at your venue, styled properly, edited for every platform.

03
Social Media Management

Strategy-led social for hospitality. We handle content, copywriting, scheduling and community management across Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. Your team runs the floor. We run the channels.

04

05
SEO & Local Search

Technical SEO, Google Business Profile optimisation and local search strategy. We make sure your venue shows up when someone searches 'best restaurant near me' or 'boutique hotel Sydney' - not buried on page three.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about hospitality marketing.

Q
How much does hospitality marketing cost in Sydney?

It depends on scope. Social media management for a single-venue restaurant typically starts from $1,500/month. Full-service retainers covering content production, social, SEO and campaigns range from $3,000-8,000/month. We provide custom quotes based on your venue, goals and budget.

Q
Do you work with single-venue operators or only groups?

Both. We work with independent restaurants and bars as well as multi-venue hospitality groups. The scope and pricing adjust to fit - a neighbourhood bistro doesn't need the same deliverables as a hotel group, and we build packages accordingly.

Q
Why hire a hospitality specialist over a generalist agency?

Because a generalist has to learn your business on your budget. Jude Cohen has spent 12+ years inside hospitality across six continents, so we already read covers, RevPAR, ADR and the seasonal swing - and we know a Tuesday lunch service and a Saturday night need different content, not the same post rescheduled. You skip the months a generalist spends working out why your floor is empty at 6pm and full at 8.

Q
Do you shoot food, drinks and venue content in-house?

Yes - on-site at your venue, under Jude's personal creative direction. Plated dishes, cocktails on the pass, the room at golden hour, the team mid-service: we capture it in your space and your light, then edit it for each platform. We work around service so the shoot never costs you covers, and there are no stock photos or outsourced crews on your account.

Q
Can you integrate with our booking system?

We work with the major hospitality platforms including SevenRooms, ResDiary and OpenTable. Our campaigns and SEO strategies are built to drive direct bookings through your existing systems, not just surface-level engagement.
