Vendor application

We're inviting restaurants and local businesses to become official participants in The Grubb Club Vendor Program, a growing community offering exclusive discounts to members. You choose the discount, we bring the patrons. It's free to sign up and free to offer a perk. What we ask is that the offer is worth someone's trip: a free soda and the like won't be accepted.

Attract new customersOur members are always looking to discover new spots. Your business could be their next favorite.
Increase repeat businessOffer irresistible deals that keep satisfied customers coming back for more.
Stand out from the crowdGain added visibility through our platform, social media, and member communications.
It's freeFree for businesses to participate. The goal is to drive traffic while helping members save.
You get the membership tooWhile you're running a special, your own Grubb Club membership is on us. Use the other vendors' discounts, the weekly grocery deals, and the member recipes, exactly like any other member.

Offers that work best

Bring real value to the customer. A free soda is easy to offer, but it rarely makes someone choose you specifically. A few that have worked:

15 to 20% off a meal or item (10% off is the minimum for the program)
A free item such as an appetizer or entree with purchase
Buy one, get one free
A dollar amount off an item (e.g. $3 off any burger)
Kids eat free
A free item for the first 50 members on a set date, then a discount for everyone after
Timed specials (e.g. between 4:00p and 7:00p members get a special discount)

How it works

Members show a digital Grubb Club membership card, or use a custom promo code you provide based on your POS.
No extra hardware or software is needed on your end.
We ask that specials run at least a month, since Grubb Club members subscribe monthly.
You can run multiple discounts in the same month on different items.
It helps if you can track Grubb Club uses in your POS, for data purposes.
Once you're accepted your deal goes live right away, and you'll get an email confirming it with everything you need.
You get a Grubb Club membership on us for as long as you're running a special, so you can use the other vendors' discounts and the weekly grocery deals yourself.
