We run fully managed Facebook and Instagram ads for restaurants that reach 50,000 to 100,000+ locals every month, very different from basic “boosts”. These ads attract new guests through optimized, trackable campaigns. Our system not only shows ads but also captures guest info, follows up automatically, and drives real revenue, aiming for a 3x ROI. It’s a proven, done-for-you strategy that works around the clock while you focus on running your restaurant.
Video ads are an excellent way to capture the feel of your restaurant and showcase what it’s like to visit. These videos can be highly persuasive, but organic video posts often lose momentum quickly. To keep the momentum going and ensure the video continues to gain exposure, we put ad spend behind it. This strategy helps keep your video in front of local audiences and maximizes its impact.
These lead generation ads encourage new guests to visit your restaurant by offering a “gift” in exchange for their contact info, like an email or phone number. It’s not a typical discount – it’s a great way to get attention, build a database of leads, and track visits. Even if prospects don’t visit immediately, they are added to your database for future messaging. This messaging can highlight anything from new menu items, catering, to gift cards, and so much more – generating significant revenue. For example, a St. Louis restaurant sold $27,000 in gift cards from one text to their 35,000 contacts. Common offers include a free appetizer or a $10 gift card with a $50 purchase, tracked through your point-of-sale system.
These contest campaigns are a powerful way to grab attention and grow your list of email, text, and Facebook Messenger subscribers. They create buzz, get people tagging friends, and can run nonstop, constantly bringing in new contacts. Think of it like a raffle: you can announce a winner whenever it works best for you – monthly, quarterly, even yearly. But the real value isn’t in picking a winner, it’s in building your database and giving people a fresh reason to engage with your brand.
Promote your high-ticket services like catering and private events. When people search for catering or event venues online, your ads will follow up with them on Instagram and Facebook. To maximize conversions, we highly recommend connecting your appointment booking software like Calendly or iClosed so guests can easily schedule appointments to discuss.
This campaign is designed to promote your weekly specials with highly targeted ads that run only the day before and the day of each event, ensuring maximum efficiency with your ad spend. We’ll showcase offers like Taco Tuesday, Wine Wednesday, Trivia Thursday, Happy Hour, and Weekend Brunch, strategically timing ads to capture attention when guests are making dining decisions. This approach ensures your specials stay top-of-mind for your audience while optimizing ROI.
When someone engages with your Instagram or Facebook page, these ads will automatically retarget them and keep your brand top of mind. In today’s competitive world, it can take 20–30+ views before someone decides to visit. The impact grows over time as your retargeting list expands and more people see your ads again and again.
These campaigns spotlight your best content to drive guest reservations. With platforms like OpenTable and Resy, tracking visits and campaign performance becomes seamless, even without special offers. Many restaurants have incredible video content that often goes unseen organically. By using targeted ads to direct potential guests to book a reservation, you not only boost visibility but also significantly increase bookings, turning great content into results.
Birthday offers work similarly to the general special offers, but they specifically target individuals whose birthdays are coming up. This type of ad helps capture new contacts, encourages group bookings, and enhances the birthday guest’s experience, increasing the likelihood they’ll become loyal customers. If your restaurant has a private dining area, these ads are perfect for promoting group reservations and large parties. Typical birthday offers include a free dessert or a $10 gift card with a $50 purchase. Guests show the green checkmark on their phones to redeem the offer, and restaurants track it in their POS system just like other promotions.

I highly recommend working with Restaurant Growth if you want to attract new customers, build a large database and increase revenue. Like most things in life, the results take time and patience, but the results do come. I just added a second restaurant that launched today.

My independent restaurant uses Skytale, and I highly recommend it! We have seen a noticeable boost in traffic since starting, especially with first time visitors… many of whom didn’t even know we existed! I’ve even noticed a record pace of increase in local Instagram followers.

One on my better decisions to take a chance and it’s definitely paid off so far. Luke has been great and so has the rest of the team I’m working with. It’s been over a couple months and I’ve seen revenue up at least 10 percent! Looking forward to more and more increased revenue.

Incredible but true. 1 million views in just 30 days! I was skeptical at first, but I gave it a try, and the results have been amazing. Our business has seen great traction, and on top of that, they provide excellent customer service. Highly recommended!

I own a fast growing modern Chinese & Taiwanese Restaurant & Bar in SLC. We grew fast using our own digital marketing and have always looked for a more professional strategy for growth.
Unfortunately this marketing industry is full of companies that are unprofessional, but very good at getting you on the hook to try them out. Luke & his team are not like the industry norm. If you are struggling with growth, I’d highly recommend giving them a try. They were professional at every step of the process and extremely responsive with plenty of check ins.
You can message me directly if you want to hear about my experience. Bottom line, if you don’t know much about digital marketing for restaurants they are great people to work with.

I was a bit hesitant and skeptical before signing up, wondering if this was going to work. However, after starting, it didn’t take long to figure out that their system does work. Their platform & marketing was a set it and forget for me, which allowed me to focus on other tasks and goals. Having this company in a sense, is like having your own marketing arm working 24/7. The systems & structures are working all the time and getting more customers to visit my restaurant/bar for the first time. It would have taken me a lot of money and time (which I don’t have) to set up what they have going. My ROI more than pays for the systems that I’ve tapped into. If you’re looking to increase your business, market share, and people walking through your door for the first time, I highly recommend Restaurant Growth and their systems.

Luke and his team are doing an excellent job! We are seeing a difference in sales for sure.

It’s not always easy to find a marketing services company that actually listens to your needs and goals then incorporates that information into their system (tweaking where necessary) and crafting a plan that works for both you and them. Luke and the team do that. They understand that to be effective you MUST listen to your clients needs and that know they may need to tweak their system a bit to accommodate. Working with Luke, Jenna, and the team has been great. They are highly recommended.

Restaurant Growth has been so valuable in our restaurant marketing strategies (and it’s only been 3 weeks so far!). First of all, the techniques they use to drive traffic to the locations is top notch. They use many channels to reach customers and encourage them to visit the restaurants. They are hitting people on FB, e-mail, and text to name a few. We have seen hundreds of additional customers in just the first 15 days of advertising with them. They are as professional and top notch as it comes. We have worked with many groups in the past and the team at Restaurant Growth are by far the best so far. They are extremely responsive and there to answer any and all questions that we have. You can’t go wrong with them. Give them a try, you will love the results and the value it add to your business.

Working with them was awesome. We had campaigns that generated over 10-15X return within our first 3 months of working with them. I highly suggest them for any restaurant owners that are in need of bringing new customers in the door.
Harold Walters
Owner, Shootz
We started working with them a few months ago and really had a nice setup and a lot of help before the launch. The launch really has been great. Many new customers and the availability to drive that traffic back to us should be great as well.. Also, really love the live tracking of how the program is working.
