Through this blog, you’ll look at how you can use Lokobee’s marketing tools to improve your promotions and make your business more profitable.

Discount Coupons 


By allowing you to create discount coupons, Lokobee lets you easily set up promotions to entice hungry customers. By giving your customers up a small portion of the order value, you can earn even more.

Digital Menu 


The digital menu makes the life of a restaurateur easier. Your staff doesn’t need to follow the traditional way of upselling and cross-selling. Instead, Lokobee’s restaurant marketing system allows you to simply recommend popular items, best-selling items, regional specialties like wine, or even additional ones to your customers. The system does it all for you. 


You can also hide and show dishes, update new dishes and make changes suiting your changing business requirements. Also, the enticing images are a good way of marketing your food as they inspire people to order more. The system allows you to easily add, remove, or change dish images in your menu instantly. 




Feedback & Dish ratings 


Most customers check the reviews before ordering a dish, Lokobee helps you get them. After every order a customer places, the system gives your visitors a reminder to leave feedback. The same thing happens with the dish ratings. The system automatically collects their feedback and sends all that to you so you can work on these raw opinions and bring more diners to your restaurants by doing better.


As a restaurant owner, you know how hard it is to attract new customers, but also how important it is to keep existing ones. Lokobee can help with both of these goals. This online ordering system for restaurants has a wide range of features to help you market your restaurant to new people and retain your existing customers.
