Scope of Work

What's included every month

No bundled agency fluff or 50-page jargon slide decks — just the proven creative and advertising work that turns empty tables into profitable covers.

Content, shot to sell

Photo and video shot on-site and edited for the platform it's going on — built to make people hungry while they're scrolling, not just make the plate look tidy.

Paid social strategy

Ad budget planned and managed across Instagram and Facebook, aimed strictly at the local radius that actually drives walk-ins, not vanity impressions from three states away.

Posting & captions

A real editorial calendar, so your social feeds never go silent between shoots. Every caption written in the authentic, hospitable voice of your restaurant.

Specials & promo pushes

Slow Tuesday? Limited-time seasonal menu? We build the targeted push around it — the same playbook used to double a steakhouse's midweek covers.

Executive monthly reporting

A plain-language read on what worked, what revenue was generated, and what we're testing next month — no vanity metrics.

Table Turn Media restaurant operations background
Built on the Dining Room Floor
Founder Story

For the last seven years I've run marketing inside a busy Brazilian steakhouse — the content, the paid ads, the specials that actually filled tables on a Tuesday. Table Turn Media is that same playbook, for your restaurant.

Unlike generalist agencies juggling real estate and e-commerce, we understand table turnover, prime margins, service flow, and how to communicate genuine hospitality to local guests.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from restaurant owners

Never. We typically shoot during morning prep or right before doors open for dishes, and capture live ambiance footage during service with unobtrusive, discreet equipment without disturbing your guests.

For most single-location restaurants, we recommend starting between $300 to $600/month in paid ad spend. Because we target a tight local radius (3–7 miles), every dollar works efficiently to reach actual diners.

All our packages are month-to-month. We believe in earning your business every single month through measurable covers and table revenue, not lock-in agreements.

Once we complete the initial onboarding call and first on-site content shoot, your first wave of edited content and paid campaigns will be live within 5 to 7 business days.
