About
Feed the Sidekicks is a full-service marketing team for Houston restaurants and bars. We shoot the food, the room, and the crew, and when an owner or chef wants to tell their own story, that's usually the strongest thing we make.
Most restaurants buy marketing in pieces. A photographer, someone for social, someone for the website. Each one does their part, but the photos never make it to the Google listing and nobody builds the email list. The value is in how the pieces feed each other, which is why we run all of them.
With access to your POS, we measure the work against covers, ticket average, and catering. Without it, we report on what you watch most, which is usually social, and track what people do on your Google listing underneath. Which of those applies gets agreed before we start, so nobody's arguing about it later.
The things that make a restaurant worth visiting happen every night without anyone filming them. The pass during a rush, or a regular who's been coming since the first year. We'd rather document that than stage something on top of service.
You already paid to get a guest through the door once. Most marketing chases strangers, so we put the same effort into the email list, the texts, and the loyalty program, because regulars are what a restaurant is built on.
Everything's in-house.
The people filming your food are on the same team as the people writing your emails and running your ads. Nothing gets lost between two companies that have never spoken.
The work goes furthest when there's room to try things.
The clients who get the most out of this are the ones who hand over a problem rather than a list of tasks.
And everything stays yours.
Your Google profile, your social accounts, your email list, and every photo and video we make are in your name from day one.
Feed the Sidekicks is the food and beverage team at Sidekicks. Restaurants don't buy marketing the way anyone else does, so this side of the business works on nothing else.
Tell us what you want to promote and that's what we'll film. Two hours in your kitchen, and three days later you'll have a reel, ten photos, and a plan written for your restaurant.
