FRONT, BACK AND NUMBERS

We Read the Whole Restaurant.

Marketing has to fit how your store runs. Before we plan anything, we look at all three sides.

A server taking an order at a table

Front of house

What guests see and say: the storefront, menu, photos, reviews and the wait at the door.

A chef plating a dish in the kitchen

Back of house

What the kitchen can handle: prep time, best-margin dishes, and your busy and slow hours.

The numbers

What actually sold: sales by day and hour, delivery orders, bookings and ad results, from the reports you share.

We don’t manage your staff or kitchen. We plan marketing your team can actually run, and tell you when something in the store is hurting reviews.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you work with single-location restaurants?

Yes. Most of our work fits one location well: Google profile, reviews, social media, creators, delivery apps and weeknight campaigns.

What kinds of restaurants do you work with?

Tea and dessert shops, bakeries, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Cajun, American fast casual, bars and more, from single shops to fine dining. The plan always comes from your menu, your neighborhood and your customers.

Do you manage our staff or operations?

No. We don’t run your kitchen or your team. We study how the store runs so the marketing fits it, and we flag anything in the store that keeps showing up in reviews.

How do you keep track of competitors and trends?

We follow nearby restaurants’ menus, offers, posts, reviews and ads, plus what local creators and diners are posting. When something matters for you, it goes into your plan.

Do you handle delivery apps?

Yes. We keep menus, photos and promotions current on delivery apps and watch how they perform alongside your other marketing.

What do you need from us?

Access to your listings and accounts, the sales reports you’re comfortable sharing, approval on offers and budgets, and your team’s help on shoot days and creator visits.

Where do we start?

With a Growth Assessment. We look at how you show up today, from your Google profile and reviews to your social, delivery apps and nearby competitors, and recommend what to do first.

Do you work with restaurant groups and new openings?

Yes. See Multi-Location Growth for groups and Restaurant Launch Marketing for openings.

How do you report results?

Every month you get a report on customer actions such as calls, directions, bookings, reviews and reach, what changed, and what we plan next.

How much does it cost?

It depends on which services you need and how many locations. We recommend a plan and quote it after the Growth Assessment.
