Get More Customers to Your Restaurant
Proven strategies to attract new customers to your restaurant. Get found on Google, capture walk-ins, and fill more tables without spending thousands on ads.
More customers without breaking the bank
If you're a restaurant owner searching for "how to get more customers," you're probably dealing with one or more of these problems:
- Empty tables during slow periods (Tuesday lunch, anyone?)
- Losing customers to chains with bigger marketing budgets
- Inconsistent walk-in traffic that makes it impossible to predict revenue
- Spending money on ads that don't seem to work
Here’s the truth: Getting more customers isn’t about spending more on advertising. It’s about being found when people are looking for a place to eat.
The 3 Ways Restaurants Actually Get New Customers
1. Get Found on Google When People Search
- Optimize your Google Business Profile so you appear in local searches
- Respond to reviews (Google rewards active businesses)
- Keep your menu, hours, and photos updated
- Add posts weekly to show you’re active
We automatically sync your menu, hours, and updates to Google so you always show up in local searches. No manual posting required.
2. Capture Walk-Ins and Turn Them Into Regulars
- Place QR codes on tables that let customers join your VIP program in 10 seconds
- Capture their name and phone number
- Build a customer database you OWN (not Yelp, not Google—YOU)

3. Get Customers to Spread the Word
