Generate QR code
Peckee is much more than an online menu maker for restaurants. We also serve as a way to enhance your current marketing strategy. If you are sending out mailers, printing flyers or using any marketing collateral at all, there is only so much space you have on paper.
Use our QR code feature to generate a QR code that links visitors directly to your mobile menu. When someone uses their smartphone camera to scan the QR code printed on your flyers, they will be taken directly to your full menu containing your items and contact information.

Generate QR code page
This is pretty powerful. Any proper menu for restaurants should be intertwined with technology to help customers access the menu from anywhere, at all times, with ease. Peckee will help you leverage the power of an intuitive menu app for restaurants to revolutionize the way customers find and perceive your business. Take a look at an example of how you can use your QR code.

Scan QR code on the mailer to see full menu
Our favorite way to use this QR code is to add it somewhere inside your restaurant. Studies show that when customers see photos of all your items, they are more likely to spend more in a single sitting. Here is one of our favorite ways to add your QR inside your restaurant.

The power of social media is omnipotent. If you aren’t using the power of social, now is the time. Our restaurant menu designer will help you share your mobile menu directly to Facebook from within the app

Share feature under the order button
Once you click on share, you will be taken directly to a Facebook share page. You can enter in your message and share with the world. After you share, the page will automatically close and you will be taken back to your Peckee account. In Facebook, you will see that your post will look like the image below.

Share feature in action
By now, I hope that the question of how to create a restaurant menu is very clear to you. Even so, the fun doesn’t stop here. Peckee does it all. You don’t have to worry about expensive menu apps for restaurants, complicated POS Systems, or outdated templates for menus. Now that you have a beautifully designed mobile menu, you can start adding your customized link to your Website, Google and Yelp. Head over to your live menu and copy the link.

Simply copy your link when ever you want to share your link
You can then paste this link into your Yelp page description, google business description and even on your website. This is how you will increase your takeout orders, triple your foot traffic and increase your revenue by up to 60%. Don’t skip out on this step.
Advertise your Menu Link in Ads
This is another great way you can promote your restaurant. Hyper local advertising can help stimulate foot traffic better than any other type of marketing. Let’s say that you want to run a Facebook ad.
Head over to Facebook and create your post. At the bottom of your post, you want to paste your link and wait for the preview to populate. It will look like this.

Ad That needs to be cleaned up
After the images populate, you can clean it up by removing the additional images on your post. It’s best to leave the first image only. Then, make sure to delete the link and post. It will look like this

Facebook ad after removing the excess pictures and the physical link
Now you can share and boost your post as an ad. Make sure you utilize hyper local targeting by making your ad visible to only those in your immediate area. For example, if you live in Northern California, but your restaurant is in Hayward, narrow down the targeting from Northern California – Alameda County – Hayward. This is how you will get the best results.
There you have it. That’s how you create a menu for your restaurant that’s mobile optimized, desktop friendly and tablet ready. Enjoy.
