4. Consistent Brand Aesthetic
To ensure Masala Zone’s content stood out, Sammas developed a cohesive visual identity for the brand’s social media channels.

5. Engaging Captions and Calls to Action
Each post was accompanied by engaging, mouth-watering copy that described the flavours, ingredients, and history behind the dishes, making followers feel as though they could taste the food through the screen.
