HOW RESTAURATEURS BENEFIT Restaurants benefit from cost-effective marketing. Whether they are paying someone to manage social media, manage emails or send press releases, these are all marketing costs. Swizzle Chill provides access to high-quality coverage in an efficient manner to save restaurants money. Restaurants that invest in themselves and support Swizzle Chill, also contribute to the local foodservice ecosystem. Through EPN Cafe, our learning and business improvement series, and via our sister foodservice industry publications, we support the local restaurant industry in the nation’s capital.

Swizzle Chill creates thousands of impressions on social media, including Facebook, online and on Twitter. Video is an excellent way for restaurant owners to tell their story, and is more powerful than blogs or website content.
