Case Study

Marketing Support for a Restaurant Opening

Avalon Prime Steakhouse recently opened inside ICONA Windrift in Avalon, NJ. The new restaurant needed some support with branding and creating collateral for its opening. Since Forge Apollo provides marketing support for ICONA Windrift as part of our work with ICONA Resorts, we were a natural fit to support their new restaurant opening. We created branding standards, shot images, and designed materials used for:

  • Branding Standards
  • Menus
  • Promotional Materials
  • Emails
  • Social Media Ads
  • And More

Our Efforts

Branding

We created brand guidelines to help Avalon Prime Steakhouse establish its brand identity and keep it consistent across channels. This included designing a primary logo and variations, choosing a brand color palette and fonts, and establishing their tone of voice, brand positioning statement, and audience.

Imagery Shoot

Avalon Prime’s marketing collateral required imagery of the restaurant and its offerings. So, Forge Apollo performed an on-site imagery shoot and expedited the delivery of the final assets for use across collateral.

Graphic Design for Physical Collateral

Forge Apollo provided graphic design for several printed collateral items. This included the following:

  • Food Menu
  • Drink Menu
  • Trifold Food Menu
  • Trifold Drink Menu
  • Church Bulletin Ad
  • Postcard
  • Step and Repeat Background Banner
  • Grand Opening Invitation

Email Marketing

We also provided graphic design for a grand opening email and built and sent it in their email marketing platform.

Social Media Graphic Design & Ads

We designed three graphics to act as the pinned banner on their organic Instagram profile, as well as designing assets and writing copy for paid ads on Meta’s platforms.

Local Listings

We set up local listings for Avalon Prime on Google Maps, TripAdvisor, Yelp, and many other platforms to ensure visitors could find the restaurant online and that they could start collecting reviews after opening.
