A restaurant & live-music venue in Sacramento handed us a nearly-new Instagram account. One season later the room is setting attendance records.
Over two million views and counting — from an account that barely existed at the start of the season.
A relatively new Instagram account, grown almost 7× in one season — real local followers, not bought reach.
Multiple sold-out shows this season — attendance records the venue had never hit before.
One season of reel-first content, posted on the days that actually reach.
The audit found the leaks. The system plugs them.
We audited a full year of posts, flipped the mix to reels, gave every show days of runway with a real hook, and posted when the audience is actually looking. Same venue, same budget — different engine.
A live dashboard, not a monthly PDF.
Every client gets a private, auto-updating dashboard: reach and engagement, Google rankings and calls, website traffic, reviews — refreshed daily. The owner watches it move from his phone. That's the standard.
What we actually did
- Audited a full year of posting and found the leaks — static flyers instead of video, same-day announcements with no runway, posting on the lowest-reach days.
- Rebuilt the engine reel-first: every show gets days of runway with a real hook; food, crowd and behind-the-scenes content fills the gaps.
- Made it repeatable — a recognisable brand system the venue can sustain week after week, not a one-time spike.
- Posted when the audience is actually looking, and engineered conversation so the algorithm keeps pushing.
The results: nearly 7× follower growth in a single season, over two million views, and multiple sold-out nights — record highs for the venue.
