DRIVE MORE SALES TO YOUR BAR & RESTAURANT.

People have plenty of reasons to stay home. Give them a better reason to come to your place.

​

Running Sidework builds unique, ready-to-run promotions that bring people together, give them something fun to do, and create more opportunities for your business to make money.

​

The ideas. The drinks. The marketing. The game plan. Already done.

What's Included

We don't just hand you an idea and wish you luck.

We build the pieces that help you actually pull it off. Less time making shit from scratch. More time bringing it to life in your restaurant.

Promotions

Fresh ideas you haven't already seen at six other places in town.

The plan. The marketing. The staff tools. The details that turn “we should do something” into something you can actually run.

Beverage HQ

Drinks interesting enough to get attention, but realistic enough to make when the bar is slammed. Menus, bartender recipes, Beverage Director Notes and practical bar guidance.

Coffee And Laptop

Monday Morning Coffee

Coffee, restaurant stuff, and a few things worth thinking about before another week starts. What's working. What's not. What we're seeing. And what we'd probably do about it.

We Already Did The Sidework

Because the last thing you need is another great idea that creates three hours of work. We did that part. Take what works for your restaurant and run with it.

Touchdown Tour

Football season is four months long. Maybe your promotion should last longer than one Sunday. Turn the season into a weekly reason to come back, with something happening game after game.

First Haunt

Why wait until Halloween weekend when every other bar in town is doing the exact same thing? Kick it off early with costumes, cocktails and a reason to be first.

YEAH, WE ACTUALLY MEAN DIFFERENT.

Anybody can say they have fresh ideas.

Here are a few of ours.

Sun & Salt Weekend

Summer doesn't have to end just because somebody put pumpkins in the grocery store. One last patio weekend built around cold drinks, good food and refusing to admit fall is coming.

Pumpkin Spice After Dark

Pumpkin spice grew up. And we guess it drinks now. A fall night built around cocktails, pumpkin decorating, atmosphere and an excuse to stay a little longer.

Pink Party

If you're going pink, go all the damn way.

A full pink celebration built around cocktails, community and a cause worth showing up for.

Puzzles & Pints

A ridiculously easy midweek promotion built around team play, repeat visits and bragging rights.
