01 — THE CHALLENGE

After a short‑form video of their signature maple latte went viral, Maple Creek Café saw a surge in online interest but struggled to convert viewers into paying Customers.

01

Untracked demand

Spikes in Instagram traffic did not translate into measurable in‑store orders because there was no way to capture contact details.

02

Low appointment bookings

The café offers limited‑capacity tasting sessions, and many reservations were missed or forgotten.

03

Manual follow‑up fatigue

Staff spent hours each week calling or texting Customers individually, leading to inconsistent messaging.

02 — THE SOLUTION

Ferbz gave Maple Creek Café a unified workflow that linked Instagram buzz to WhatsApp‑driven appointments and automated follow‑ups.

Customer records (CRM)

Every Instagram lead was added to a Customer profile with purchase history and contact info.

Appointments

The tasting sessions were booked through Ferbz’s calendar, which sent automatic WhatsApp confirmations.

Automation

The owner described a “welcome‑back journey” and Ferbz built a multi‑step WhatsApp sequence that nudged first‑time visitors to return.

Broadcasts

A scheduled WhatsApp broadcast announced the next viral‑inspired flavor, with real‑time delivery and read stats.

The integrated WhatsApp flow turned social spikes into repeat Orders with minimal manual effort.

03 — THE RESULTS
