Step by step

  1. Food. Best seller close-up. New dish. Today’s special. Behind the counter. The sauce being made. A family meal laid out. Dessert. A drink. Before and after plating. The menu item guests ask about most.
  2. People. Meet the cook. The owner’s story. A staff birthday. Family recipe history. A regular’s favorite order, with their OK.
  3. Moments. Morning prep. Rush hour at the window. A busy Friday. Snow day, still open. The first customer of the day.
  4. Offers and news. Slow-day offer. Holiday hours. Catering for parties. Holiday trays. Points and rewards. Friend gift.
  5. Thanks. Thank you after a busy weekend. A five-star review. A local school or team you support. A milestone.

Questions owners ask

How many posts a week?

Three good posts beat seven rushed ones.

Should every post sell something?

No. Mix food, people and moments. Put the order link in each, but keep most posts about the food and the people.
