The Virginian Restaurant Co. | Web Development

Posted Jerry Miller Jun 16, 2012

Featuring a portfolio of four successful restaurants, our team was presented the opportunity of conceiving, creating and executing four unique websites built and designed on WordPress and four Facebook “Call to Action” pages for The Virginian Restaurant Company.

 

Follow a handful of meetings with the owner and general manager of The Virginian Restaurant Company, our team had a feel for the message, menu, ambiance, service and specialties each restaurant had to offer.

 

Here was the challenge: We had to build one template for all four restaurants while still maintaining the brand identity and unique qualities each had to offer.

 

We also conceived and executed four Facebook “Call to Action” or “Welcome Pages” for each restaurant. These Facebook “Call to Action” pages improved The Virginian Company’s social media presence.

 

In short, we overhauled The Virginian Restaurant Company’s digital infrastructure to appeal to today’s digitally-educated consumer.
