Personality, connection and experience: everything Handshakeproductions helped Forneria 1121 achieve

Have you ever imagined gathering three branches, in different cities, in a single place? If you think that is impossible, Forneria 1121 can prove to you that it is not.

How it all started

Forneria 1121 opened in March 2016 in the Aflitos neighbourhood, in Recife, Pernambuco. It was the first forneria in the state to make its dough with levain — the famous natural fermentation — and success came quickly.

Over the following seven years Forneria 1121 kept expanding, opening the doors of two more branches, one of them in the city of Natal, in Rio Grande do Norte.

With growth running at full steam, the owners ran into a problem: how were they going to publish the contact points of three branches in a single space? After all, Instagram only had room for one link. That was the question that led Forneria 1121 to Handshakeproductions.

Much more than a link in bio

Christian tells us they found Handshakeproductions through a Google search, when Fernando, one of the directors, was looking for a tool that would solve exactly that problem.

They decided to try the service, and since then they have been taking advantage of everything the platform offers. Forneria 1121 can now gather the contact options of all its branches on a single page, improving communication with its customers in a practical and simple way.

“We are using it well. It has some nice data, you can see how many people opened the links — it is really good!”
— Christian

A page that looks like the brand

Forneria 1121 knows very well how much the visual side matters — in the architecture of the restaurants themselves as much as on the links page behind their social profiles.

That is why another big advantage for them was the chance to customise the page with the colours of their own brand, which made the look unique and attractive, together with the animated buttons that help draw attention to a link they want to highlight. You can see the result on their page.

How Handshakeproductions transformed Forneria 1121's digital experience

With Handshakeproductions, Forneria found a way to concentrate every important link of every branch on one page, so that customers — whether they are in Recife or in Natal — can reach what they need straight away.

And with an attractive, intuitive layout, the team cut the time customers spent looking for information, reduced the share of people who gave up on ordering because they could not find the contact details, and improved the whole digital experience.

My two-factor verification code does not work
Almost always this is the clock on the phone: the codes are generated from the current time, so a device that is a minute out shows codes that are already wrong. Turn on automatic date and time, then try the next code. If it still fails, use one of the recovery codes you saved when you switched two-factor on.
My link is under review. Why, and how long does it take?
Pages are reviewed automatically when they contain something our filters treat as risky — a shortened address pointing at another shortener, a payment form or a download. The page stays online for you while it is reviewed, and a review normally finishes within one business day.
I cannot access the email address linked to my account
Change it from a device where you are still signed in: open your profile, enter an address you control and confirm it from the new inbox. If you are signed out everywhere, write to support and include the address of your page.
Can I add a PDF to my list of links?
Not as a file upload, but a PDF works as a button like any other address: put the file somewhere it can be opened publicly and paste that address into the button.
