ShoutShot for restaurants

You already know the problem. People who would love your food do not know you exist, and the ways to fix that all cost more than they should or take time you do not have.

Here is what ShoutShot is, plainly, and what it asks of you.

One post a day, maximum. That is the whole job.

A Shout is one short video or one image. It goes into a feed of local businesses that people scroll specifically to find somewhere to go.

Every business gets one post a day, so everyone has the same chance to be seen. Nothing new today? No problem — your profile is still there and people can still find you.

Not a content calendar. Not a strategy. One post when you have something worth saying.

“I don’t have time to make videos”

This is the objection we hear most, and it is the right one to raise. So there are three ways to post, and only one of them involves you filming anything.

Record it on your phone. Sixty seconds of the special going out, the kitchen at prep, your chalkboard for the day. It does not need to be polished. A phone held up in a busy kitchen looks more like a real restaurant than anything an agency would produce.

Have someone else make it. A staff member, a regular who is good with a camera, whoever. You upload it.

Or upload a flyer. If you already make a graphic for the weekend special, that is a Shout. No filming at all. It works the same as a video in the feed, and it takes ten seconds.

Most restaurants end up doing a mix. A quick video on a slow Tuesday, a flyer when the week gets away from them.

Deals are optional, and most posts are not deals

This is the part that surprises people, because every other platform in this space is built around discounting.

A Shout can be a deal. It can also be the soup that came out well today, a new item on the menu, the band playing Friday, a change in your hours, or welcoming someone new behind the bar. Those are the posts that make people feel like they know your place — and they cost you nothing to run.

When you do attach a deal, the entire value of it goes to you. We take no percentage of the sale, no commission, no cut of anything a customer spends once they are through the door. If you run ten dollars off a bill, that ten dollars is between you and your customer.

A customer saves the deal to their phone, shows it when they come in, and marks it used. There is no code for your staff to type and no tablet to buy. They look at the screen and honor it, the same as any coupon.

What it costs

One flat monthly membership. That is the entire cost.

It does not go up when more people see you. It does not go up when a post does well. It does not go up because another restaurant in town started advertising. In your best month and your slowest month, it is the same number.

Your reach is not throttled and not auctioned. A restaurant paying the standard rate reaches the same audience as anyone else on the platform — you choose whether that is your city or the whole country.

The honest trade-offs

Three things worth knowing before you sign up.

One post a day is a hard cap. If you were hoping to flood the feed on a Friday, you cannot. Every business gets one a day, so everyone has the same chance to be seen — and nothing new today is no problem at all. Your profile is still there and people can still find you.

We are new, and in your area we may be small. We launch November 1, and the audience in any given town starts at zero and grows. Being early means the feed is less crowded and your posts stand out more — it also means the audience is smaller than it will be in a year. That is the honest position, and it is why the founding rate exists.

Why now

Founding Businesses lock $14.99 a month for life. Not for a year, not until we change our minds — for as long as you keep the account.

There is no charge today and no card required. Founding Businesses use ShoutShot free through January. The first payment is February 1, 2027, and the rate never moves after that.

The founding window closes January 31, 2027. After that the price is $29.99 a month, which is still a flat rate and still takes nothing from your sales — it is simply not fourteen ninety-nine.

If you have been looking for a way to be found that does not take a cut of your dinner service, this is the one we built.
