Marketing Solutions

City Dish isn’t just a great resource for dinner deals and events. We also provide restaurants with the right marketing tools & services to build buzz for their business.

Our services include:

• Marketing Strategy - we will help you devise a strong plan-of-attack to get people in the door.
• Promotions – we’ll create attention-grabbing concepts/ideas to get you noticed.
• Online PR – we’ll promote your specials/events to our vast network of food editors, social media networks, and influential opinion-shapers. Your events will also be posted in popular websites like: Facebook, Going, Yahoo, Yelp, SFStation, 7x7sf.com, Craigslist, and Twitter.
• Email Marketing – the best people to market to are your current customers! Alert your diners of upcoming specials, events, and menu changes. Create "forward to a friend" incentives and rewards to help grow your database.
• Customer Loyalty – encourage diners to fill out customer comment cards and surveys, and reward them for their time and input. Email thank you notes to customers after they’ve dined with you.
• Neighborhood Outreach - connect with your neighbors (All-You-Can-Eat Pizza night; Family Dinner Specials). Cross-promote your specials with neighborhood businesses.
• Community Outreach - partner with local non-profits on charity dinners (the charities will in turn promote your restaurant to their database).
• Create social networking experiences – Happy Hours, game nights, live music, fundraiser parties. Give people a reason to come in and see what’s happening. We can help connect you with liquor suppliers to off-set the costs.

We work with restaurants big and small. Our monthly retainer ranges from $500 to $1,000. And unlike other firms, we don’t require a year-long commitment.
