In a competitive hospitality market, standing out requires more than just great food—it takes strategic, consistent marketing that connects with customers on every level. At EzyMarketing, our flexible, subscription-based marketing services give businesses an all-in-one solution without the overhead of building an in-house team. Our long-term partnership with Phoenix Restaurants, one of Australia’s most recognised Chinese dining groups, showcases how our model delivers real, measurable results.
1.
Transforming a Contact List into a Core Asset
When we began, Phoenix had around 2,000 customer contacts. Through digital campaigns, events, and in-store collection methods, we helped them grow this number to over 30,000 active contacts—building a powerful database for future engagement.
2.
Email Marketing That Delivers Results
We manage Phoenix’s bi-weekly newsletter, featuring:
Signature dishes and seasonal menus
Event announcements and promotions
Behind-the-scenes and staff stories
Each campaign is performance-tracked (open rate, click-through, engagement), allowing us to continuously improve based on data insights.
3.
Website Optimisation & Lead Capture
We collaborated with Phoenix’s web development team to:
Enhance website performance and mobile experience
Integrate a visible newsletter subscription form
Promote seasonal offers and events directly on key landing pages
4.
Video & Photography Production
EzyMarketing produced a wide range of short videos and photography content for Phoenix, including:
Store and dining environment showcases
Kitchen and behind-the-scenes preparation
Signature dish highlights
Event coverage, such as Lunar New Year lion dance performances
Founder interviews, including stories behind their Yum Cha series
These assets were used across social media, websites, newsletters, and ads to drive engagement.
5.
Membership Program Development
We helped design and launch a loyalty membership system, complete with a points-based rewards structure to:
Encourage repeat visits
Reward long-time patrons
Personalise email and social media content based on membership behaviour
6.
Shopping Centre Collaborations
We facilitated marketing partnerships with Westfield and East Village, resulting in:
In-centre promotions
Cross-brand exposure
Seasonal campaign participation
This positioned Phoenix as a trusted, family-friendly dining choice in premium locations.
7.
Engaging the Chinese Community via Xiaohongshu
We established and managed Phoenix’s verified Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book) account, a growing platform among Chinese Australians. Our content strategy helped:
Share real dining experiences
Promote dishes and campaigns
Connect with younger, highly engaged Chinese-speaking audiences
8.
Unified Social Media Management
EzyMarketing coordinated all Phoenix’s platforms—Facebook, Instagram, and Xiaohongshu—for consistent branding and efficient cross-channel publishing.

Media Partnerships
We collaborated with local media and influencers to:
Promote Phoenix’s seasonal campaigns
Generate editorial and organic social mentions
Reach multicultural food lovers across Sydney
10.
Google Business Profile Optimisation
We manage Phoenix’s Google Business Profile, regularly updating visuals, responding to reviews, and optimising information—crucial for local SEO and online credibility.
