SpotHopper has saved me two hours a day. The stress relief is amazing — it frees up my time and my mind to focus on what really matters: my customers.
Stephen Newmark
Owner, Toco Grill
At Toco Grill, a kosher Mediterranean restaurant in Atlanta, owner Stephen Newmark manages nearly every part of the business himself. Like many independent restaurant owners, his day moves between the kitchen, the counter, and the dining room—leaving little time for marketing.
“I knew marketing was important,” he says. “But when you’re running the whole restaurant, it’s hard to stay consistent,” he explains.
Without a system in place, marketing became reactive and inconsistent. And when restaurant marketing isn’t consistent, visibility drops, and potential customers choose competitors who are easier to find online.
SpotHopper helped Toco Grill replace manual, inconsistent marketing with a connected restaurant marketing system designed to attract new guests and save time.
The first step was a complete website redesign. SpotHopper built a high-performing restaurant website with professional photography and video, allowing guests to see the food, space, and experience immediately. Key information—menu, hours, and location—became clear and easy to access, improving both user experience and restaurant SEO.
“SpotHopper was able to help me develop a stellar website to match the diverse menu that I offer,” Stephen says.
SpotHopper also simplified social media marketing for the restaurant. Instead of creating posts manually, Stephen now reviews and approves pre-built content each month, including promotions, menu features, and updates for Instagram and Facebook.
This shift is critical for independent restaurant owners. Instead of managing multiple tools and tasks, marketing runs consistently in the background—helping the restaurant stay visible online without requiring constant attention.
After implementing SpotHopper, Toco Grill saw measurable improvements in restaurant marketing performance:
These results show a clear pattern: improved online visibility leads to more diners discovering and choosing the restaurant.
For Stephen, however, the most valuable outcome wasn’t just growth—it was time.
SpotHopper saves him approximately two hours every day by automating key marketing tasks. Instead of managing posts, updating content, and trying to stay consistent, he can focus on running the restaurant.
That time goes back into what matters most: being present with guests, creating a great dining experience, and building relationships that keep people coming back.
