#roxtoberfest

When The Couch Tomato in Manayunk was looking for ideas to help expose their product to additional audiences they turned to the team at ADVENT. Owners Craig & Mike were looking to tap into Roxborough for those who may not have tried their award winning restaurant. ADVENT was able to help facilitate The Couch Tomato’s inclusion in Roxtoberfest, the signature fall event on Ridge Avenue in Roxborough. 

Through promotions for the festival, The Couch Tomato was featured on Good Day Philadelphia discussing their expansion into the West Chester market and the delicious Cider Braised Pulled Pork sliders being served at Roxtoberfest.   

By joining Roxtoberfest as a vendor, The Couch Tomato was able to interact with over 6,000 people during the event. Their pork cider sliders were such a hit, that they sold out!     

When The Couch Tomato was looking to advertise with online news outlet Billy Penn, the ADVENT team advised using a native marketing strategy to compose a brand highlight article about the 10 Reasons We Love The Couch Tomato In Manayunk. Using copy writing skills, witty gifs, and a love for everything Couch Tomato the end result was this mouth watering article. Take a read for yourself.

If you have been following closely to our blog then you are well aware of the event that ADVENT is helping the RDC produce in Roxborough. If not, I will give you a brief description of the event. First, I would just like to state how excited ADVENT is to be working with the RDC. We love Roxborough and think that Roxtoberfest is exactly what this community needs! It will be on October 5th from 12-6pm located on Lyceum Avenue in between Ridge and Mitchell. Lyceum Ave will be shut down for the day and open to the Roxborough community and everyone else who wants to enjoy Roxborough. There will be live music, carnival games, inflatables, a beer garden, as well as tables set up by the lovely Roxborough businesses! The RDC wants this to be a day where the businesses of Roxborough and the community can come together! This is a great opportunity for local businesses to advertise and market their products or services to the community! So far there are 20+ businesses participating in this event, and the numbers are still growing!
