From Wasted Ad Spend to Packed Tables: How We Cut Costs and Boosted Bookings by 30%
Visit WebsiteWith multiple venues across Sydney and a premium steakhouse offering, Elements Bar and Grill had a strong brand — but their digital marketing wasn't reflecting that.
They were investing heavily across META and Google Ads but weren't seeing the bookings to match. Campaigns lacked cohesion, audience targeting was too broad, and seasonal promotions weren't reaching the right people at the right time. They needed a strategy that translated their high-quality offering into measurable, high-intent bookings, not just clicks and impressions.

30% increase in online bookings YOY across all venues
Higher CTR and ROAS across META and Google Ads
Organic search traffic up 40% for "near me" and dining-intent keywords
