A community manager for your restaurant, no agency and no hassle for you.
We manage your Google profile, your reviews and your social media for you. Everything included, no commitment, for €389 excl. VAT per month: two to four times cheaper than an agency.
This week at Le Comptoir du Marché
A restaurant community manager usually costs €400 to €800 per month as a freelancer and €900 to €2,000 per month through an agency. Plat du Jour offers an equivalent done-for-you service (Google review replies, your daily special posted every day, Google profile optimisation and social media posts) for €389 excl. VAT per month, with no commitment and 100% focused on restaurants.
I know I should post and reply to reviews… but between lunch and dinner service, I never have the time.
The result: a neglected Google profile, unanswered reviews and silent social accounts. That is exactly what drives away customers looking for you online.
What we handle for you
Every week, without you lifting a finger.
A real team specialised in restaurants, backed by our technology. Not yet another tool to learn.
We reply to every review, positive or negative, within 24 to 48 hours, in your restaurant’s tone. You approve, or you let us handle it.
Send a photo of your chalkboard on WhatsApp, or tell ChatGPT or Claude your dishes: it goes out on Google, Instagram and Facebook, with a visual.
Hours, photos, description, posts: we keep your Google profile in top shape so you climb in Google Maps.
No photographer? We create appetising visuals of your dishes, ready to post.
Google, Instagram, Facebook, plus TikTok or LinkedIn if you wish, posted at the right frequency.
Someone on our team knows your restaurant, checks your posts and reports to you every month.
