what the client wanted

The Requirement

Gunpowder Restaurants required a complete overhaul of their website to address inefficiencies in navigation and user experience, which were leading to significant drop-offs in customer engagement. The existing system was cumbersome, requiring up to eight clicks for users to access menus, which impacted bookings. Additionally, the restaurant needed a robust performance marketing strategy, including PPC campaigns and analytics tracking, to align with peak dining periods. With their expansion into Lisbon, they also sought a seamless digital presence tailored to the Portuguese market, mirroring their UK success.

Our Approach

We began by redesigning the website to create a streamlined, user-friendly experience that reduced menu navigation to just three clicks. By analysing Google Analytics, we identified user behaviour trends and implemented tracking codes to optimise performance marketing. Mobile displays were refined to ensure consistency and ease of use across devices, while PPC campaigns were developed to target high-traffic festive periods effectively. For the Lisbon expansion, we created a Portuguese version of the website, localising the content and promotional strategies to resonate with the regional audience, ensuring a successful international launch.
