For restaurants and venues

Influencer marketing for restaurants and venues

People choose where to eat from creators who live nearby and show the meal. We help venues find those creators and plan the visits; book a call and we set it up with you.

We set up venue campaigns with you on the call.

What works

What works for restaurants and venues

Go local first

A creator with followers in your city fills tables; a bigger account elsewhere does not. Check where the audience lives before you invite anyone.

Invite, then see who brings guests

Offer a meal or an experience to a group of local creators, give each a code or booking link, and see whose post brings people in.

Be clear about the offer

Say what is included, for how many, and when. A clear invite gets better posts and fewer awkward bills.

Ask for the moment, not the menu

The dish arriving, the room on a busy night, the drink being made: real moments persuade more than a menu shot.

Judge the views, not the followers

Choose on the views recent posts get, especially among people near you.

Disclose clearly

A free meal counts as a connection that must be disclosed. Ask for #ad or a paid-partnership label at the start of the post.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do restaurants find local influencers?

Look for creators who post about food and nights out in your city, whose followers live nearby, and whose recent posts get real views. On a call we find them for your area and plan the first visits with you.

Should a restaurant pay influencers or invite them?

Start with an invitation: a meal or an experience for local creators. Pay those whose posts bring guests through the door, once you know who they are.

How much do food influencers charge?

It varies widely. On TikTok, where creators publish their rates, the median ask we measured was $100 a post for 10,000 to 50,000 followers and $250 for 100,000 to 500,000, across all niches. For a local venue, a hosted visit is often the first step.

Can I use Acurrate for my venue today?

We set venues up with you on a call: we find local creators for your area and plan the visits together. Book a 15-minute call to start.

Can an agency run this for several clients?

Yes. Agency is $399 a month for 5 client brands or $599 for 10, each with its own creators, forecasts and payments, and your agency’s logo on the workspace, set up with our team. Agency has no free trial; you can try Pro free on one brand first.
