How do I get more direct orders without depending on DoorDash or Uber Eats?
By building your own ordering channel. With paid traffic on Meta, Google and TikTok, Beatus sends customers straight to your website, app or SMS/chat line, not to a third-party marketplace. That means you skip commissions of up to 30%, own your customer list, and can use automation to bring past customers back.
How much does it cost to hire a paid traffic agency for my restaurant?
There are two separate costs: your ad spend, which you set and which goes straight to Meta and Google, and the agency's management fee. Beatus starts every relationship with a free audit to size the right budget for where your business is today, with no long-term lock-in contract.
Does paid traffic work for a small, independent restaurant?
Yes, and it's often where well-run paid traffic shows up the most, because it only reaches people who are hungry and nearby, at the right moment. It's not about a huge budget: it's about strategy, creative that makes people want to order, and a direct channel to receive that order. We start small, track cost per order, and scale what's actually profitable.
What is the difference between boosting a post and running paid traffic?
Boosting a post optimizes for likes and reach. Paid traffic optimizes for orders. Hitting "boost" hands the algorithm the wrong goal. A real traffic campaign is built with the right audience, creative, offer and destination to generate a sale, and it's measured by cost per order and return, not engagement.
How long until paid traffic starts bringing in orders?
The first orders usually come within the first few days of launch. The first two to four weeks are a learning phase: the campaign collects data and we adjust audience, creative and offer until cost per order comes down. Consistent results come from continuous optimization, tracked on a live dashboard.
