Chapter 1

An ordinary Friday across your locations.

The lunch rush is strong and the delivery tablets keep beeping. But by closing, the margin is thinner than it should be.

  1. 11:52 AM
    Missed call Hi, is your Main Street store open on Monday for the holiday?

    The crew is buried in the lunch rush. Google still shows regular hours, so he plans lunch somewhere else.

  2. 1:15 PM
    Website form Do you deliver yourselves, or only through the apps?

    The form lands in a general inbox at the main office. By evening she has ordered through an app.

  3. 6:40 PM
    Google Maps It says open till 10 PM. Why are the lights off?

    That store changed its hours last month, but the old ones are still on Google. He leaves a one-star review.

  4. 8:10 PM
    Delivery app I’ll just use the app. My card is already saved.

    She has been a regular for three years. The app keeps the fee and her email. You don’t know who she is.

  5. 10:00 PM
    End of day 4 orders that went to an app or another brand.

    Next Friday starts the same way.

4 orders that went to an app or another brand today

None of them stopped liking your food. They just found an easier way to order first.

Chapter 2

Meanwhile, on the other side of the screen.

Mike is 31, has friends coming over and wants tacos for pickup. This is how he looks for you:

That’s what we do: the regular who searches on a Friday night ends up at your counter, not the one next door.

How we work with multi-unit food brands

Three steps, with dates.

  1. Diagnosis in 2 days

    We review your site, every store’s Google profile and the brands near you, and tell you where orders are slipping away. Included in the plan.

  2. New site or redesign in about a month

    A page per location, the menu in plain sight and direct ordering one tap away. It stays in your name.

  3. Every month, on Google

    We work every store’s profile and page, and show you the orders, calls and direction requests the site brought in, location by location.

A real case

Todo Service Hogar: 59 areas, each with its own page

For an in-home repair service in Buenos Aires we built a page for each service in each neighborhood: 8 services across 59 areas, each with its own content. It’s the same base we would use to give each of your stores its own page.

One plan

The restaurant chain marketing plan

A new site and Google work so every location shows up right and regulars order from you directly.

What you’re after

“Every store’s Google profile is set up differently, and we can’t tell how many orders each one brings in.”

  1. 01

    Launch Route

    Your new site, with a page per location and the menu in plain sight, delivered in stages with dates.

  2. 02

    Profile That Sells

    Each store’s Google profile with the same details as your site: real hours, photos, menu and ordering link.

  3. 03

    9-Signal Check

    The nine things a guest checks before choosing you on Google, measured at every store before and after.

  4. 04

    Plain Report

    Monthly orders, calls and direction requests from the site, store by store, with next month’s decision.

If you leave it

Every regular who orders through an app leaves part of the margin behind, at every store, every day.

Restaurant chain marketing: questions before you hire us

The ones owners, franchisors and marketing directors ask most.

How much does it cost?

We set the price after the diagnosis, which is included and takes 2 business days, based on how many locations you have. The site is billed 50% up front and 50% on delivery, and the monthly plan has a 3-month minimum.

We already use an online ordering platform. Why a new site?

The platform handles checkout. The site is what shows up on Google for each store and leads to that checkout, so the two work together.

The apps bring us volume. Do we have to drop them?

No. The apps keep bringing new guests. The goal is for regulars who already know you to order direct, and we track that by location.

Do our menus and online ordering need calorie information?

Under the FDA menu labeling rule, yes, once you are a chain of 20 or more locations with the same name and menu. Below that it isn’t required, but we can leave the pages ready for it.

How long does it take?

A new site or a redesign of your current one takes about a month, depending on how many locations you have. If you want to start simple, our Launch site is ready in 2 to 3 weeks.

Will it work with the ordering system we already use?

Yes. Each store’s order button links to your current system, such as Toast or Olo, or to that store’s page on each app. A custom system is quoted separately.

Do you also build custom software?

Yes: a central menu with prices by area, a franchisee portal or a multi-store ordering system with your own delivery zones. That’s a separate conversation and a separate quote, apart from the site.

Next Friday at 11:52 AM, someone will call to ask if your store is open.

Make sure your site already answers. We start with the diagnosis: in 2 business days you’ll know what’s costing you orders.
