You own a restaurant.
We bring you more catering orders.
The Office Down the Street Wants You for Lunch
Every office near your restaurant feeds its people. Staff meetings, trainings, birthdays and the Friday before a big deadline all end with somebody ordering lunch for twenty. Big Order Catering finds every business with 10 or more employees in the area you deliver to and emails them on your restaurant's behalf, offering your catering.
“I owned a cafe. Our best months were when we had large catering orders. The labor cost was about the same as a normal month, because we could plan for it ahead of time and be efficient. We were always looking to add more catering orders. Now we bring them to you.”
The Email They Get
An example. Yours is written from your menu and approved by you.
Subject: catering for [the office's company name]
Hi there,
[Your Restaurant] is about two miles from your office and caters breakfast and lunch for teams: boxes of breakfast sandwiches, hoagies or salads, delivered and ready to eat.
If you have a meeting, a training or a birthday coming up, reply with the date and headcount and [your first name] will get back to you with a quote. Your first order is [X]% off.
Big Order Catering, on behalf of [Your Restaurant]
[Your restaurant's street address]
If you'd prefer not to hear from us, reply "no thanks" and we won't email again.
What do I have to do?
Answer the replies and cook the orders. We find the offices, write the email and send it.
Will it go out from my email?
No. It goes out from inboxes we set up and run, so your own email account and its reputation are never touched.
Is cold email legal?
Yes. Every email includes your restaurant's address and a way to opt out, and anyone who asks is removed for good. That follows the CAN-SPAM Act.
What if I get more orders than I can handle?
Tell us and we'll slow it down or pause it.
Do you take a cut of the orders?
No. It's a flat monthly price, and every dollar of every order is yours.
Can I cancel?
Anytime. There's no contract. Email us and it stops at the end of the month you've paid for.
