[01] The Audience
1.1M+ restaurant contacts. One HQ decision beats a thousand single-store pitches.
Restaurant sales teams waste most of their list on single-location owner-operators who can't sign anything beyond their own four walls. The real buyer sits at the group HQ - Operations, Purchasing, or a multi-unit franchisee who decides for every location at once - and generic restaurant lists don't separate the two. Ken qualifies every restaurant group and operator in its 1.1M+ restaurant and food service contact base against your ICP with AI - unit count, footprint, technology stack - then personalizes every email around the group's actual footprint.

[02] Buying Signals
Signals Ken Can Actually See
Restaurant HQ buyers move on real engagement and real fit, not a hunch. Ken watches what a prospect does and qualifies who they are before they enter your sequence.
Multi-click intent on location pages and franchise kits
An Operations or Purchasing lead who clicks your demo or pricing link more than once is showing real intent. Ken flags it and can fire the next touch automatically or route the contact straight to you.
Re-engage quiet restaurant operators
An HQ contact who engaged and then went quiet gets picked back up automatically. Ken watches for clicks that stop and re-approaches with a different angle before the deal goes cold.
Sort Restaurants & Food Service replies the moment they land
Every reply from a VP of Operations, franchisee, or purchasing director is classified the moment it lands - interested, not interested, or out of office - and routed or handled automatically, so real conversations reach you fast.
Qualified to Your Unit Count
Score every restaurant group against criteria a dropdown cannot express - “10+ locations still running a legacy POS” or “franchise operator with in-house purchasing.” Ken reads each group's footprint so single-location owner-operators never enter the sequence.
[03] Why Ken
Built to reach HQ, not the counter
AI QUALIFICATION
Filter by unit count, not just “restaurants.”
“Restaurant groups with 10+ locations” or “multi-unit franchisees with in-house purchasing” isn't a filter a generic list gives you. Ken's AI reads each company's footprint and scores it against your actual ICP - our clients report under 10% unqualified leads.
AI PERSONALIZATION
Emails that speak to group-wide rollout, not a single store.
Restaurant HQ buyers ignore anything that reads like a single-location pitch. Ken writes from the group's actual footprint, unit count, and role - inside human-written frameworks. In our 500k-email study, Ken personalization lifted engagement 127% while generic AI copy dropped it 25%.
SEGMENTATION
Independent, franchise, and enterprise groups need different pitches.
A 3-unit independent and a 200-unit franchise operator buy differently. Segment your list by unit count and operator type, run parallel campaigns, and see which pitch converts by segment - not just in aggregate.
