As you know, the restaurant business is tough right now. Customers are keeping more of their dollars in their pockets, and making tough decisions about when and where to go when they go out.

It's not uncommon now for a couple or group to spend time deciding where to go, sometimes looking at a website, sometimes through their iPhone or Blackberry, sometimes looking at online review sites like CitySearch, Westword, or Yelp. The big corporate competitors all have listings on these sites. They're also listed in the iPhone and Blackberry apps, and most importantly, they all have their own websites.

When your customers are looking for a place to go, they're looking at the postings from other customers - reviews, comments, and recommendations from others who've been to your competitors restaurants and are telling them all about it.

Your competitors are using advanced marketing tools to steal your customers away. Things like email marketing, text-messaging, and promotions like Birthday and Anniversary Clubs. But these programs take big bucks to set up, and are expensive to operate and a hassle to manage.

Even if you have a website, your competitors websites are probably much better.  It takes a lot of hard work and a big budget to make cutting edge, dynamic websites with features that draw customers into your place: live online menus, maps with directions, content that changes with your daily specials and events (like live bands or other entertainment), and online food and service reviews.

The corporate chains have all these features, and they're stealing your business from you! Are you ready to fight back?

Now, you can take the advantage back! OnlineEateries.com has created a marketing system designed for you, the independent restaurant, to give you all the advantages of a big-budget website with built-in marketing features to get new customers into your restaurant and get returning customers coming back sooner and more often.

You'll have a great-looking, functional website designed for your restaurant, with built-in marketing tools!

At the core of the system is a brand new, custom designed website for your restaurant.  You may already have a website, and if you do we can re-use any parts of it that are doing their job to bring you business. If you don't have a website, we'll create one for you. But not just any website: A full, custom-designed website with the logos, colors and style to properly represent your place. We'll create the site from the ground up with search engine optimization features built into every page to make sure your site gets ranked in the search results.

We'll also put features into your website that brand new customers will love: they'll be able to look at your menu (an illustrated text-based version, not just a static PDF); they'll be able to find you on a scalable map, and get directions to your place. We can also add specific instructions like parking information and walking directions.

Once the customer has dined with you, how quickly do you want to get them back in? How about Right Away?! To do that, you'll want to get their contact information so you can send them information about upcoming specials or events. You may also want to offer something special for events like their birthday or an anniversary. We'll show you ways to get the customer to want to sign up for your features. Once you've got their contact information, you can create your own special promotions and events.

The big restaurant chain competitors are using their marketing techniques to grab your customers. It's your turn to fight back. You can offer your customers a much more personalized and compelling reason to get them back into your establishment. But you have to have a contact list to work from, and we'll show you ways to build it!

I know what you're saying: "if the big-budget chains pay huge money for websites and marketing tools like these, how can I afford it?" We realize that most independent restaurants don't have the budget to put together a full-featured marketing website. It's a big up-front cost, plus ongoing hosting and maintenance costs that keep adding up. We've created our system so that there is NO Setup Fees at all, and we've made it so that all you pay is an affordable monthly fee, with no additional charges or "nickel and diming" you. In fact, once signed up, your rate will be guaranteed not to change for a year!

We've designed a system where all the core framework is already done. We add a custom-designed look for your restaurant, and give you the tools to use it. We can create a new website for your establishment, with all the look and style of your place, without having to worry about recreating the back-end, heavy lifting work. Then, we'll show you how to maintain your specials, events, and menu from within the easy-to-use administration section of the website.  Sign up today, and we'll create your online menu, specials, and events for you! (A $50 value!)

You'll also be able to create your own marketing emails, and send them out whenever you want. The customer has requested the information, so the email is never considered "spam". Plus, we'll make sure your emails follow the "unsubscribe" rules so customers feel more comfortable signing up for your specials and notifications.

We're taking the expensive cost of creating a full-featured marketing-driven website, and spreading the cost out for you, at the same time bringing in new customers right away! The system will pay for itself with each table of new customers.
