Grande Media was able to slash our marketing costs in half, eliminating advertising that was no longer effective. They worked with different television stations and video editors to get us advertising on two different TV stations. We experienced record sales during this time period.

Overview
ssGeorge’s of Galilee has been a Grande Media client since early 2015. For over five years, Grande media has helped George’s implement new social media strategies and systems to increase the overall audience reach and engagement for the restaurant. In year one, Grande Media helped oversee the negotiations and creation of all print and digital advertising, analyzing and assessing all new and existing marketing ventures. As the business grew, Grande Media helped the George’s team manage key B2B and B2C communications, helping to lead the internal management team in overall business growth objectives. George’s of Galilee has broken sales records year after year and continues to be one of Rhode Island’s most beloved tourist attractions and community leaders.
As the summer seasons wind down in Rhode Island, we work hard to transition the marketing & presentation of the restaurant to cater to the fall & winter. This was another collaboration with Streamline HD Studios, one of New England’s best video production companies for marketing & PR.
