How Restaurant Franchise Brands Outperform Facebook Benchmarks with Local Advertising
Restaurants rely on consistent foot traffic and repeat customers to thrive, but national campaigns often fail to capture local dining trends, special events, or seasonal promotions. For franchises and multi-location restaurant brands, reaching the right audience at the right time is critical to driving reservations, takeout orders, and in-store visits.
With Tiger Pistol’s localized advertising approach, restaurant brands can deploy hyper-targeted campaigns that deliver stronger engagement and cost efficiencies. Restaurants using Tiger Pistol’s platform achieve:
- 39% lower CPM than Facebook, making brand awareness campaigns more affordable.
- 10% lower CPC, helping restaurants drive more website visits, reservations, and orders.
By focusing on locality, restaurants can engage diners with relevant messaging, special offers, and promotions tailored to their specific markets. Whether promoting a lunch special, a new seasonal menu, or a loyalty program, localized advertising ensures restaurant brands stand out in a crowded digital space and remain top-of-mind for local diners.
Across all industries, Tiger Pistol’s local advertising platform consistently delivers more cost-effective results than Facebook’s benchmarks. Even during peak advertising seasons like Q4, Tiger Pistol ensures cost stability, with only a 10.5% increase in CPM compared to Facebook’s 28% surge.
Tiger Pistol’s localized approach to social advertising consistently outperforms Facebook’s Business Manager by improving efficiency and engagement while lowering costs.
For franchise and multi-location restaurants, scalable local advertising is the key to sustainable growth. By running ads from local business pages rather than a national brand account, restaurants build credibility, drive more direct engagement, and ensure promotions are relevant to each market. Tiger Pistol’s platform empowers brands to maintain centralized control while giving individual locations the flexibility to promote menu items, events, and offers that resonate with their local customer base. With a localized strategy, restaurant brands can fuel consistent foot traffic, increase orders, and strengthen long-term customer loyalty.
