Toast Social Media Marketing

For Restaurants

Your POS already knows what to post. Toast social media marketing is Mindshare Consulting's service for turning the data inside your Toast system, including menu items, specials, catering offerings, and best sellers, into Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok content that fills seats. As a Certified Toast Partner and Integration Partner, we build content strategy from what your restaurant actually sells rather than from guesswork. The dish that quietly became your best seller deserves a starring role. The Tuesday special nobody knows about deserves a push. The catering menu deserves an audience of office managers. With Toast social media marketing, every post has a reason behind it, a place on a calendar, and a person managing the comments afterward.

Why Restaurant Social Feeds Go Stale

Most restaurant social accounts start strong and fade. The owner posts during a slow week, then service gets busy and the feed goes dark for a month. When posts do happen, they are improvised, so the same three dishes appear over and over while the rest of the menu stays invisible. Comments and messages pile up unanswered, which reads as indifference to the guests who bothered to reach out.

The fix is not more effort from you. It is a system run by someone else. A calendar planned around your menu and seasons, content batched ahead of time, posting handled on schedule, and community management that answers questions about hours, reservations, and that one dish everyone tags their friends about.

What Our Toast Social Media Marketing Service Includes

We run your social presence as a managed program with a monthly rhythm. A typical engagement includes:

• Content strategy from Toast data, using best sellers, specials, and seasonal items to decide what gets promoted
• Monthly content calendars planned around menu launches, holidays, dayparts, and slow nights that need filling
• Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok content, formatted natively for each platform instead of cross-posted as an afterthought
• Photo and video direction, with shot lists built from the dishes your data says deserve attention
• Specials and catering promotion, giving high-margin offerings a recurring place in the feed
• Community management, answering comments, messages, and tags so guests always hear back
• Links that lead somewhere, sending followers to online ordering, reservations, and your loyalty signup
• Monthly performance reviews connecting content to follower growth, engagement, and order clicks

Content Decisions Backed by Sales Data

The difference between a decorative feed and a productive one is what informs it. Because we work inside your Toast system, we know which dishes drive revenue, which specials underperform, and when your slow dayparts fall. That tells us what to feature, when to post it, and what to send people toward, whether that is commission-free online ordering or a loyalty enrollment. The connections that link Toast to marketing tools run through Toast Partner Connect, with a partner directory published on Toast's Partner Connect page. Data in, content out, guests through the door.

A great feed should end in orders, not just likes. Turn attention into revenue with Toast restaurant advertising, make sure locals can find you through Toast restaurant SEO, and keep guests returning with Toast email marketing.
