Arepa spots: why your Google profile matters.

People search for arepas nearby, or for Venezuelan or Colombian food by name. A Google Business Profile with photos of your own arepas, current hours and a recent update answers all three searches.

Asked by Venezuelan and Colombian restaurants.

What should a Venezuelan or Colombian restaurant post on social media?

The arepa of the day, tequeños and empanadas fresh from the fryer, weekend plates such as cachapas and bandeja paisa, December orders for hallacas and buñuelos, and party trays. Show an arepa cut open.

Which social media is best for an arepa restaurant?

Instagram for the food and Google Business Profile for nearby searches and hours. Facebook reaches families and the local Venezuelan and Colombian communities.

Can the posts be in Spanish?

Yes. Your assistant drafts in the language you write to it in, so you can ask for Spanish, English or both, and approve the version you want. For example, “Arepa del día: reina pepiada” can go out in Spanish, English or both.

Can I schedule December order reminders in advance?

Yes. Ask for the announcement, a reminder a week before the deadline and a last-call post in one message. All three are scheduled and you can move or cancel them later. For example: “Tequeños and empanadas, hot until close”.
