About Hungry Crowd

Who We Are

Practical marketing for Australian takeaway restaurants

Hungry Crowd focuses on customer retention and local marketing for Australian takeaway restaurants. The services cover genuine customer feedback, email and SMS, social media and local advertising, with the scope agreed for each restaurant.

The starting point is the customer journey: how people find your restaurant, decide what to order and choose to come back. Clear information, a useful offer and a direct relationship can all support that journey.

We begin by understanding your restaurant's goals, existing tools and available data. Then we discuss a practical scope and measures that help you judge the work. Results depend on your business and customers; the approach is to test, learn and improve.

Our Mission

A clear scope and useful measures

Agree the work, responsibilities and cost before starting. Choose measures tied to customer actions, such as enquiries or repeat orders, and explain where available data limits attribution.

Our Values

Honest customer relationships

Invite genuine feedback fairly. Use email and SMS with appropriate customer permission. Keep promotions clear and business information accurate so customers can make informed decisions.

Innovation lies at the heart of our strategies.

Community engagement is vital for restaurant success.

Client success drives everything we do.
