Get more orders by using the Preferred Partner and ezRewards program

Be seen. Drive clicks. Get more orders.

 

“If you’re not on page one of the search, you’re not getting seen.” Chief Marketing Officer Cole Robillard of Smokey Bones and Owner and CEO Pete Minich of Fresh City share how improved page placement on ezCater led to huge returns. “If you can be above the fold, the attention that you get from clients is exponential.” Originally a brick-and-mortar business with 15 locations, Fresh City saw so much success in the catering industry that they switched to a full-time catering operation. They’ve been in ezCater’s Preferred Partner Program for five years, and now ezCater accounts for 20% of their business. Smokey Bones uses the Preferred Partner Program to increase awareness for their virtual restaurants that don’t have the same awareness as their core ones. They now have the ability to invest in specific, targeted markets, and the boost in visibility leads to a direct boost in sales.
