Google posts are short updates with a photo that appear on your Business Profile. They show the restaurant is active and tell people who are already looking at you what’s new. Here are 12 ideas, one per month, ready to adapt.
How to make a good post
- Your own clear photo (no images from the internet).
- Two or three sentences: what it is, when, and what to do.
- A button: “Call”, “Order online” or “Learn more”.
- If your customers speak both languages, alternate posts in English and Spanish.
12 ideas for the whole year
- January — Your best-seller: a photo and one line on why people love it.
- February — Lent: your fish or meatless options for Fridays.
- March — Meet the team: introduce your cook, with their permission.
- April — Holy Week and Easter: special hours and seasonal dishes.
- May — Mother’s Day: a reminder to book or order early (second Sunday of May in the US; May 10 in Mexico).
- June — Cold drinks: horchata, tamarindo, jamaica.
- July — Party catering: if you offer it, how to order.
- August — Takeout and direct ordering: how to order from you without apps.
- September — Hispanic Heritage Month (Sept 15–Oct 15): the story of a dish from your country.
- October — Behind the scenes: how your tortillas or salsa are made.
- November — Day of the Dead and Thanksgiving: pan de muerto, tamales or your holiday hours.
- December — Tamales and year-end orders: order deadlines and special hours.
Consistency beats perfection
One simple post a month is better than ten in a row and then nothing. Set a fixed reminder; our restaurant dates calendar helps with key dates.
LocalDual plans include monthly Google posts (4 on Growth and Pro; Team also adds 12 Facebook and Instagram posts) prepared with your photos.
