In today’s world you see most people on their phones quite often or all the time even. Not only is social media used by young adults to gain likes and followers, now even restaurants amongst with other business use social media to attract more customers. With all these hashtags, likes, comments and sharing your location with others helps recommend to you what to and not to eat. With all the photos taken by customers, and then them sharing then with their followers helps gain and attract other new customers.
I myself use instagram as a tool to trying to locate other places where I can enjoy a good meal or dessert other than the ones I usually go to. It’s very convenient as well because it would show you places you’re nearby or it also has recommendations based on posts you’ve liked before. I also noticed that now snapchat is also doing this where you can add your location and others can swipe up and it instantly tells you how to get there and what they serve.
As technology advances more people and businesses gain more followers/customers. You can say that almost everyone can gain more from it. Also taking awesome photos is a great advantage because when someone posts something that looks delicious they might just ask you, “Where did you eat that? it looks tasty!”. If I see good reviews or comments on a certain place, I would definitely give it a try.
