Social media publications can bring companies recognition and customers.
On his Instagram channel, he presented his almost 30 million followers with pictures of the city with the accompanying words \”postcards from Helsinki\”.
Among Collins’s shots, pictures of local coffee shops and restaurants were also selected. The photo collage included, for example, a photo of a portion of the Relove cafe in Helsinki and the sign of Cafe Regatta. In addition, one of the pictures shows the music restaurant Storyville located in Töölö.
Our reporter visited the places shot by Lily Collins and asked the companies what the significance of a big star’s Instagram post is.
– Of course, it was a great honor for us that out of all the places in Helsinki, he found his way to us at Relove, says Alavuo.
Alavuo adds over the phone that social media photo publications are meaningful to them. They can also bring more customers.
– That’s why our dishes are also made in such a way that they are Instagram-worthy.
*Listen to the journalist’s departure on the trail of Lily Collins and why the visuality of portions is important in the opinion of shift manager Iris Parkkinen:*
Actor Collins also posted a picture of Cafe Regata.
– It’s pretty amazing. Admirable in the sense that here she modestly sat like other women among the customers.
Kuitunen says that a lot of foreign tourists visit the cafe anyway, and social media plays a role in finding the cafe.
He has also noticed that customers take a lot of pictures in the cafe area. For example, the campfire site in the terrace area, the seascape and the food portions attract tourists to take pictures.
As an entrepreneur, he thinks it’s great that pictures of the cafe are shared on social media.
– I would also hope that when people come and queue for coffee and buns, they could focus on traditional conversation as well. And it’s not like the camera needs to sing all the time. But everyone has their own style, Kuitunen states.
*Listen to why the reporter thought Lily Collins visited Cafe Regata and what entrepreneur Marina Kuitunen said about the visit:*
In addition to cafes, Collins’ photos also showed the Storyville music restaurant in Töölö and the \”Happy Jazz Club\” light sign.
Our reporter toured the restaurant before the evening’s music gigs, but unfortunately we couldn’t catch the owner of the restaurant for an interview.
