Radio ad - Ke Buena
Focus on the Spanish target market and people who want real, authentic, Dominican food.
Alternative/Digital:
Alternative/Digital:
We want to keep the momentum going with the Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram
posts, and boost them to get even more views and a wider audience. Boosting posts lets
you choose age, gender, location, and the amount you want to reach. Adjusting the
reach adds to the cost of the boosted post, so we are keeping ours relatively close to
SLU, and are keeping the age range for these posts between 18 and 25. To accomplish
this, we would want to hire a Social Media Coordinator with a salary (for six months) of
$12,500. This way, management and staff wont have to waste too much time posting on
social media, and having one person do it will keep the posts consistent and frequent.
This will help reach any students or young people in the area who are looking for great
food and drinks. Social media events also adds to the word-of-mouth and buzz
surrounding the restaurant.

Besides the expense for hiring a Social Media Coordinator (around $2,083.33 each
month), we also aim to air around 4 radio advertisements per week to maximize our reach. The
cost of each advertisement, as mentioned earlier, is $106 and hence we will devote around
$424 per week, or $1,696 per month for this traditional outreach. We want to reply both on
traditional and nontraditional media to increase customer's loyalty and to reach new customers.
This is why we will spend approximately similar amount for each method (44.88% of our budget
for traditional media and 55.12% for non-traditional media).
We aim to air 4 radio advertisements per week and the first three will be broadcasted
around 5-6pm on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. These are the times when young people
usually make plans for their evenings to dine and go out. The last radio advertisement will be
broadcast at around 10-11 am on Sunday when everybody is thinking about having a lunch on a
nice and sunny Sunday.

2. Who are we talking to, and what insights do we have about them? What points can
we use to gain leverage? Does the target have a hot button?
We are talking to families and individuals who are of Hispanic descent or those looking to
experience Dominican/Caribbean cuisine. We can leverage certain aspects of the food (beans,
rice, meats, pork, jerk chicken, island-style drinks) to reach these types of highly involved,
knowledgeable consumers. Our hot button would be Caribbean/Dominican.
4. Whats the single most important thing we want them to take out of this advertising?
Whats the most important idea, feeling, or memory we want our advertising to leave with
the customer?
The most important thing we want the customer to take from this advertising is that the food it
the most authentic Caribbean and Dominican food in St. Louis. We want them to feel at-home
and comfortable, and we want to them to eat a great meal.
5. How can we make our promise, claim or even the ad, believable? Are we being
honest with the consumer? Can we, and do we support the claims we are making in this
advertising?
We can make out claim by mentioning that Mi Caribe has been featured in Sauce Magazine and
Feast Magazine multiple times. We can also mention that chef is Dominican, and that adds to
the credibility of the restaurant as a whole, as well as the message we are trying to make.
6. Is there anything worth thinking about that might help us achieve great advertising?
Is there any current trend, fad, or news that we might in some way relate to our consumer
insight?
Current trends that we could utilize are word-of-mouth recommendations and marketing, along
with Facebook events, and reviews on websites such as Yelp. These trends are especially
popular among the younger target market, the SLU students.
