Bishop Sessa
We worked with owners Erez Gordon and Paul Cooper and their team to solidify the Bishop Sessa story. We then completed a photoshoot with photographer Samuel Webster and shared the story through copywriting and blogs on the website, press releases, a Yelp event and social media (Instagram, Twitter and Facebook).
Online audience and recognition by press and influencers increased, and most importantly – so did bookings.
Bishop Sessa currently run their own social media, marketing and PR.
Website copy excerpt:
“There were knives, a few fights and a gun, but eventually the regulars moved on and Erez moved from the door to behind the bar.”
