Overview Challenge Web & Dev Analytics AI & Automation Marketing Results

THE PROJECT

ShoreFyre Fresh Bar & Grill is a locally-owned restaurant with two locations in the heart of Waikiki — on Koa Avenue and inside the International Market Place. What started as a website redesign quickly evolved into a full-service partnership spanning web development, data analytics, AI-powered operations, and ongoing marketing.

We replaced their aging WordPress site with a fully custom platform built for speed, SEO performance, and multi-location complexity. Then we went deeper — building automated reporting systems, integrating third-party platforms, and running their digital marketing. This is an ongoing engagement where we serve as ShoreFyre's dedicated technology and marketing partner.

WHAT THEY NEEDED

ShoreFyre was running on a generic WordPress template that didn't reflect the energy of their brand or the complexity of operating two distinct locations — each with different menus, hours, events, and reservation systems. The site was slow, difficult to update, and offered no visibility into how customers were actually interacting with it.

Beyond the website, the ownership team had no centralized way to monitor daily sales performance, track employee metrics, or catch anomalies across locations. Marketing efforts were scattered, and there was no system in place to measure what was working and what wasn't. They needed a partner who could handle the full picture — not just build a site, but build the infrastructure behind the business.

CUSTOM-BUILT FROM SCRATCH

We stripped out WordPress entirely and built a custom site from the ground up — fast, lightweight, and designed specifically around ShoreFyre's multi-location model. Each location has its own menu pages, hours, reservation flow, and event listings, all managed through a unified structure.

The site integrates directly with OpenTable and SevenRooms for reservations, and supports online ordering flows for both locations. We implemented full technical SEO — structured data markup, XML sitemaps, optimized meta tags, and performance tuning — to maximize organic visibility in a competitive Waikiki market.

DATA ON EVERYTHING

We deployed comprehensive GA4 analytics across every page, with custom event tracking on every meaningful interaction — reserve a table, order online, view a menu, click a location, and more. This gives ownership a clear picture of how visitors move through the site and which calls-to-action are actually driving revenue.

We also built a custom QR code tracking system for ShoreFyre's physical promo cards. Each campaign gets unique QR codes that route through our analytics layer before landing the customer on the target page. This connects offline marketing efforts directly to online behavior — something most restaurants have zero visibility into.

DAILY INTELLIGENCE, AUTOMATED

We built a custom AI agent that connects directly to ShoreFyre's Toast POS system via API. Every morning, the agent pulls the previous day's sales data, processes it, and delivers a detailed summary to the owner and general managers via PDF — automatically, before they even walk in the door.

The daily report includes a full breakdown of revenue by location, employee performance metrics (tips, hours worked, voids, refunds, and per-employee revenue), and trend analysis compared to the same day in previous weeks. A weekly digest rolls everything up with bigger-picture patterns.

Critically, the agent is trained to flag anomalies that could indicate theft, fraud, or operational issues — unusual void patterns, refund spikes, or revenue dips that don't match traffic. This gives ownership a layer of oversight that would otherwise require hours of manual review or expensive third-party audit tools.

FULL-SERVICE MARKETING

We manage ShoreFyre's entire digital marketing operation on an ongoing basis. This includes Google Ads campaigns targeting tourists and locals searching for dining in Waikiki, optimized Yelp and TripAdvisor listings that drive high-intent traffic, and custom blog content designed to build organic search presence over time.

All marketing spend is tracked end-to-end — from ad impression to table reservation — using a combination of UTM parameters, GA4 conversion events, and platform-specific attribution. We continuously optimize campaigns based on what the data shows, not guesswork. The result has been a measurable increase in online reservations, order volume, and overall brand visibility across both locations.

WHAT CHANGED

Since launching the new platform and taking over marketing and analytics, ShoreFyre has seen measurable improvements in online reservations, order volume, and customer engagement across both locations. The ownership team now starts every day with a clear picture of business performance — delivered automatically, without lifting a finger.

The anomaly detection system has flagged operational issues that would have otherwise gone unnoticed, and the QR tracking system has given the team direct insight into which physical promotions are actually converting. What was once a restaurant with a basic website is now a data-driven operation with a full technology stack behind it.
