01 / PRODUCT & PEOPLE

Who does it serve and what problem does it solve?

Outsources catering lead generation to a team that knows LinkedIn outreach, and positions against catering platforms such as ezCater with "no platform commissions, no ads, pays for itself within 3 months guaranteed".

Target Audience

Independent restaurant and barbecue owners in the US who do corporate lunch and company-party catering orders and no longer want to pay 11%-30% commissions to platforms like ezCater

02 / BUSINESS MODEL

How does it charge?

subscription

Takeout $97/month + $497 setup fee (self-serve tools and CRM, with a 14-day trial); Delivery $747/month + $997 setup fee (adds an AI booking assistant, LinkedIn outreach, and cold email, at least 20 qualified leads a month); Full-Service $2,997/month + $1,997 setup fee (adds managed ads, referral campaigns, and a dedicated account manager); founding spots lock in $97/month; Delivery and Full-Service come with a 3-month payback guarantee; cancel anytime

The above describes historical pricing. Check official website for current prices.

03 / ACQUISITION

Where do users come from?

Traffic estimate 2026-09 lists only 9 keywords; the top three channels are direct (29.95%), organic search, and referrals, with 0% paid; the search keywords include the brand keyword catering funnels and competitor-comparison terms such as grubhub plus vs premium, sharebite, ezcater 2025 lunch report, and ez cateres delivery fees, matching the website's /compare/ pages (ezCater, CaterCow, ChowNow, DoorDash, Fooda, Grubhub, Sharebite, ZeroCater) and its ezCater-alternative blog posts. The website also has a Playbook download, a commission calculator, a client results page, and a weekly blog, and the main call to action is to book a free 30-minute strategy call. Founder Angel Roman has 10+ years of LinkedIn outreach experience, so early customers most likely came from his own outreach and network (speculation, no evidence found). Revenue record has no channel filled in. Customers are few (6 subscriptions), existing users stay on monthly renewals, and there was churn from 2026-07 to 09.

Channel share, initial acquisition, and growth drivers are distinct; correlation does not imply proven causation.
