Explore Scottsdale: A Vibrant Hub for Your Restaurant Business

Scottsdale, Arizona, is known for its luxurious resorts, vibrant nightlife, stunning desert scenery, and thriving arts scene. The city is home to a diverse population of residents, snowbirds, and tourists, all seeking unique and memorable dining experiences. With its reputation as a destination for high-end shopping and cultural events, Scottsdale is a prime location for a restaurant business looking to make its mark.

Scottsdale’s dining scene is a reflection of its cosmopolitan nature—ranging from upscale, fine-dining establishments to trendy, casual eateries. The demand for high-quality food and unique concepts is always on the rise, as residents and visitors alike seek exciting culinary experiences. With the right marketing strategy, your restaurant can stand out in this competitive market and become a go-to spot for locals and tourists.

Why Scottsdale is Ideal for Your Restaurant Business

Scottsdale offers the perfect environment for a restaurant to flourish, with a year-round flow of tourists and a local population that appreciates quality dining. The city’s culture emphasizes luxury and wellness, making it an ideal market for restaurants that offer innovative, health-conscious menus, as well as those that deliver a luxurious dining experience. Whether your restaurant focuses on farm-to-table, fusion cuisine, or fine dining, Scottsdale provides a sophisticated audience ready to explore new tastes.

We were approached by a team of three people – one chef and two investors to develop a marketing plan for them to take over restaurant premises which had recently closed and make it a high-quality establishment serving high quality cuisine.

Marketing Ideas to Elevate Your Restaurant in Scottsdale. Here is an outline of the main marketing points proposed:

  1. Postcard Mail Campaigns
    1. Direct Mail:  Scottsdale is a prime area for direct mail campaigns. Arizona Sales and Marketing (ASAM) can design eye-catching, professionally designed postcards to introduce your restaurant to potential diners. Postcards can highlight your menu, grand opening, or special promotions. You can target specific neighborhoods like Old Town, Gainey Ranch, or North Scottsdale to attract the right clientele.
    2. Every Door Direct Mail: In addition, using the post offices resources we can design an Every Door Direct Mail program (EDDM) which, because of the high quality of homeowners they can comfortably attract the quality residents which can be reached at significant cost savings.
    3. Branding and print materials:  we can design a full range of print products that will reflect the quality of the restaurant. These will include:
  • Menus
  • Business Cards
  • Sidewalk signs
  • Promotional products
  • Canvas Prints – a new range of canvas prints and other art works that will create an excellent ambiance to the premises.
  • Branded Merchandise: Consider creating branded merchandise such as T-shirts, hats, or even special sauces or spices from your kitchen. Merchandise can not only increase your restaurant’s visibility but also create an additional revenue stream.
    1. Exclusive Dining Experiences: Scottsdale residents love exclusive experiences. Consider offering VIP tasting menus, chef’s table dinners, or wine pairing nights. You can promote these exclusive experiences through social media, email campaigns, and direct mail. By offering something unique, you’ll create buzz and attract foodies looking for something beyond the ordinary.
    2. Leverage Scottsdale Events: The city is home to numerous events like the Scottsdale Culinary Festival, Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction, and Scottsdale Fashion Week. Partner with event organizers or host your own pop-up dining experiences during these events to increase visibility and draw in both tourists and locals.
    3. Influencer Marketing: Scottsdale has a strong presence of local influencers and food bloggers. Invite influencers to your restaurant for complimentary meals in exchange for social media exposure. Scottsdale’s audience is engaged on Instagram and TikTok, making influencer marketing a key strategy for building your restaurant’s reputation.
    4. Health-Conscious Menus: Given Scottsdale’s wellness culture, offering health-conscious options like organic, vegan, or gluten-free dishes can help you cater to the health-conscious crowd. Highlighting these options in your marketing materials-whether through postcards, your website, or social media-will resonate with locals who prioritize wellness.
    5. Outdoor Dining and Ambience: Scottsdale’s beautiful weather makes outdoor dining a must-have for many customers. Promote your patio or al fresco dining experiences through professional photos and marketing campaigns. Emphasize your restaurant’s atmosphere—whether it’s a romantic evening under the stars or a laid-back brunch with mountain views.
    6. Loyalty Programs and Discounts for Locals: Implement a loyalty program that rewards regular customers for their continued patronage. Offering locals discounts or loyalty rewards can encourage repeat visits, especially during the slower tourist season. Promote these programs through direct mail campaigns or digital marketing to reach Scottsdale’s year-round residents.

Products and Services to Market for Your Restaurant

  • Seasonal Menus: Capitalize on Scottsdale’s tourist seasons by offering seasonal dishes that highlight fresh, local ingredients. Promote these menus through email newsletters, social media, and postcard mailers to keep customers coming back for more.
  • Event Hosting and Catering: Scottsdale residents love to celebrate, making event hosting and catering services a lucrative avenue for your restaurant. Promote your space for corporate events, weddings, or private dining experiences.
  • Happy Hour Specials: Scottsdale’s bustling nightlife makes it the perfect place to offer enticing happy hour deals. Create special promotions on drinks and small plates to draw in the after-work and pre-nightlife crowds. Promote these deals on social media and through direct mail to local residents and businesses.

How to Stand Out in Scottsdale

To make a lasting impression in Scottsdale’s competitive restaurant market, you need to focus on offering both exceptional food and a memorable experience. Market your restaurant as a destination—not just for a meal, but for a full sensory experience. Whether it’s through stunning interior design, unique menu offerings, or exclusive events, let your restaurant’s personality shine through.

Additionally, a strong visual presence is key in Scottsdale. ASAM can help with all of your marketing needs, from high-quality postcard mailers to social media management and branding. Utilize our expertise to craft compelling marketing campaigns that reflect the elegance and excitement of Scottsdale and drive more diners to your restaurant.

With a strategic mix of direct mail, digital marketing, and local partnerships, your restaurant can quickly become one of Scottsdale’s most talked-about dining destinations.
