Why Restaurants Choose Us
I’m Gabriel Childress, 19, from Asheville, NC. I grew up filming and editing videos for fun, and after graduating from Asheville High I spent a year at UNC Charlotte before realizing school wasn’t for me. Instead, I doubled down on what I love: creating, marketing, entrepreneurship, and helping businesses grow.
I’ve always been around restaurants - bussing tables, playing jazz sax in local spots, and soaking in the "behind-the-scenes" vibe. Restaurants feel like home to me. Owners are grounded, hardworking people, and the industry itself is something AI will never replace. People will always crave food, flavor, and community.
That’s why I built Restaurant ROI: a digital marketing agency focused 100% on helping restaurants pack their tables and boost sales.
I don’t hide my age - I lean into it. Being 19 means I know where attention is, because I consume it every day. And with the mentorship, tools, and knowledge I’ve been given, I’ve built a fresh, no-fluff approach that gets results.
Today, I help restaurants boost revenue by up to 40% with a proven digital marketing system - viral video content, ads that build lists of customer data, and loyalty retention systems that turn first-time visitors into regulars. This isn’t just business for me. It’s the most fun thing in the world, and I take pride in changing restaurant owners’ lives one at a time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Other Restaurant Owners Asked Before Working With Us:
Is ad spend included in your price?
No. Ad spend is separate, and you control it. Most restaurants start with about $300–$500/month, but some spend more if they want bigger results. Every dollar goes straight to getting more locals in the door.
How much work is this for me and my staff?
Almost none. We handle the filming, ads, and reminders. Your team just needs to honor the offers at the register and know what to say if a guest asks about them (we give you a simple cheat sheet).
Does this work with my POS system?
Yes. We connect with most major systems like Toast and Clover. We’ll set it up for you during onboarding so it runs smooth without changing how you check people out.
How fast will I see results?
Most restaurants see their first new signups and redemptions in 7–10 days after launch. By the end of the first month, you’ll already have a growing customer list you own. For the e-wallet retention system, it takes about 3-4 months to see the full 30-40% revenue increase.
Does this work for bars/food trucks/nightlife/lounges too?
Yes. This system is directly applicable to any form of hospitality. All the mechanics are the same, and we have the templates/systems to fit your businesses needs.
