What we handle each month

You pick what you need. We recommend where to start, and the free review shows you where the work is.

  1. 01

    Found on Google, Yelp and Nextdoor

    Listings, hours, photos and posts kept current, and reviews answered.
  2. 02

    Social media that shows the food

    Posts written, designed and scheduled, with photos and video shot at your restaurant. More on social media marketing.
  3. 03

    A menu that sells

    Descriptions that make people hungry, best sellers first, and the same menu on every platform.
  4. 04

    DoorDash, Grubhub, Uber Eats and other menu platforms

    We set up your menu on each platform and manage it to raise orders, profit and upsells. Offers and ads are checked weekly, order-error charges are reviewed and disputed when they're wrong, and payouts are matched to your sales.
  5. 05

    Orders that come straight to you

    Delivery apps take a commission on every order. If you have your own ordering page, we steer regulars to it, then bring them back with email and rewards.
  6. 06

    Offers, email and ads

    Win-back offers for past customers, holiday and seasonal campaigns, and paid ads on Google, Meta and YouTube when they make sense for you. More on digital advertising.
  7. 07

    AI search answers

    We keep your name, hours and menu consistent on Google, Yelp, Nextdoor and your own site. We can't promise a place in AI search answers, and nobody can.
  8. 08

    One plain report each month

    Sales, orders and what moved, with a budget and yearly plan so you know where each marketing dollar goes.

What a menu rewrite looks like

An example with an invented dish. It is not a client's menu. The rewrite leads with the dish, and it adds nothing the kitchen doesn't do.

Before (example dish)

Chicken Enchiladas

Corn tortillas, chicken, roasted green chile sauce, cheese. Served with rice and beans.

After (example dish)

Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas

Corn tortillas rolled around chicken and covered in roasted green chile sauce and cheese. Rice and beans on the side.

  • The dish name says what makes it different.
  • The sauce gets named up front, because that is what a diner pictures.
  • A rewrite adds only what your kitchen confirms.

Why direct orders matter

Delivery apps bring you orders, and they charge a commission on each one. Orders through your own ordering page carry no app commission. Many restaurants can use both.

Through a delivery app

  1. Customer
  2. Delivery app takes a commission
  3. Your restaurant

The app takes a commission on every order.

Through your own ordering page

  1. Customer
  2. Your ordering page no app commission
  3. Your restaurant

No app commission. Payment processing fees still apply. With a customer's consent, you can email them offers.

+$543K

more sales a year than in 2022

What one restaurant's numbers show

One family-owned restaurant we work with saw annual sales rise by $543K, or 22.8 percent, from 2022 to the 12 months to May 2026. We have run its marketing since early 2023. Marketing is one of several things that move a restaurant's sales, and these results are not typical or guaranteed.

Before you ask.

How much does restaurant marketing cost in Fresno?
You pay a monthly fee for the work you pick, and it depends on what that is. Ad spend and platform fees are separate. We quote the price and terms before you start.
Do I have to sign a long contract?
Plans are built around 12 months, so there is time to see what works. You sign nothing to get the review, and the quote states the price, the terms and how to stop before you sign.
Do you work with DoorDash, Uber Eats and Grubhub?
Yes. We set up your menu on each platform and manage it to raise orders, profit and upsells. We also check the charges.
Can you get us more direct orders?
If you have your own ordering page, yes: we steer regulars to it with email and rewards that give them a reason to use it. We can't promise a number or change what the apps charge. Many restaurants keep the apps and use both.
Do we keep our accounts?
Yes. Your Google, Meta, DoorDash and ad accounts stay in your name. If you leave, we hand over access and remove our own.
Do I need Yelp and Nextdoor, or is Google enough?
Google first. Yelp and Nextdoor matter where your customers use them. We check which do for you and skip the rest.
Will this get us into AI search answers?
We can't promise that, and nobody can. We keep your name, hours and menu consistent on Google, Yelp, Nextdoor and your own site.
How do I know a result came from your work?
We can't prove it for sure, and marketing is one of many things that move a restaurant's sales. We report what we did and what moved, month by month, and we tell you when a month was flat.
Do you guarantee more orders?
No. We report what moved, and we don't promise orders.
