Project: Creating Local Buzz for “The Chai Spot” in Clifton
Challenge: “The Chai Spot,” a popular new cafΓ© in Clifton, Karachi, needed to generate buzz and drive foot traffic using social media within a highly competitive local market. Their presence was minimal, and they needed an authentic, engaging approach to connect with Karachi youth.
Solution/Approach: We launched an Instagram-first strategy focusing on visually rich, localized content. This included ‘Karachi Rains and Chai’ themed posts, local food blogger collaborations, and running hyper-targeted engagement campaigns for the Clifton and DHA areas. We used Urdu and local slang in captions for an authentic feel.
Key Metrics (KPIs):
- Engagement Rate: Increased by 190%.
- Local Reach: Increased by 240% in the targeted area.
- Geo-tagged Check-ins: Grew by 65% in the first month (direct attribution to foot traffic).
Duration of Service: 3 months initial, now ongoing.
Client Feedback: “Epik Funnel truly understands the Karachi vibe! Our weekends are fully booked, and the local check-ins are through the roof thanks to their strategic content.”
Project: E-commerce Sales Flow for “PakStyle Fabrics” (Karachi Base)
Challenge: An established textile business in Saddar, “PakStyle Fabrics,” needed to transition from traditional sales to a profitable e-commerce model specifically targeting customers in Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad through social media platforms.
Solution/Approach: We designed an Instagram and Facebook Catalogue-based advertising strategy. This involved dynamic ads showcasing their latest lawn and formal wear collections, using compelling visuals and clear Call-to-Actions (CTAs) for “Shop Now.” We meticulously tracked conversion data to optimize the sales funnel.

- Return on Ad Spend (ROAS): Achieved 4.5x in the first quarter.

The content was tailored to address common IT challenges faced by firms in Pakistan.

Project: Highly Localized Campaigns for “Foodie’s Delight”
Challenge: “Foodie’s Delight,” a restaurant with multiple branches across Karachi (e.g., Gulshan-e-Iqbal, PECHS), needed a social media strategy to boost visits to specific outlets without diluting the overall brand message.
Solution/Approach: We ran geo-fenced ad campaigns on Facebook and Instagram, customized for each location, promoting special weekly deals only valid at that specific branch. Used high-quality food photography and short video reels that felt native to the platform and the local area.
Key Metrics (KPIs):
- Foot Traffic Attribution (via Offers): Increased by 40% per branch.

Project: Authentic Community Management for “Karachi Auto Care”
Challenge: “Karachi Auto Care,” a leading auto repair shop, had a negative reputation online due to a few bad reviews and needed to actively manage its online image and build trust within the busy Karachi motoring community.
Solution/Approach: We implemented a proactive social listening and community engagement protocol. We addressed all queries and complaints immediately and professionally, turning negative interactions into positive resolutions. We also launched a user-generated content campaign showing satisfied Karachi customers and their vehicles.
Key Metrics (KPIs):
- Negative Sentiment Reduction: Decreased by 75%.
