Yelp Waitlist, which is available to clients starting at $249 a month, now features: Yelp Waitlist now offers more convenience than ever with Predictive Wait Time and Notify Me - new features that improve efficiency for restaurants’ front-of-house operations, and help people plan their next meal out from the comfort of their home. Yelp Connect is a paid subscription that costs $199 a month, but will be available to early adopters for a special limited-time offer of $99 a month. These followers consist of users who have previously shown high intent with their business - such as using Yelp Waitlist or Reservations, leaving a review and bookmarking a restaurant for later. Unlike other social platforms, Yelp Connect restaurants typically start out with many followers. Plus, I like that I can set expiration dates for my posts, especially for holidays and events so I can set it and forget it.” “Being able to scroll down our page and see our own photos and updates that we posted makes us look a lot better on Yelp and is helpful for our guests to see. It’s a great way to present your restaurant exactly how you want to be presented,” said Kathryn Gianaras, owner of NOVY Restaurant in San Francisco. “Yelp Connect has given me a place to share information directly with existing and potential customers. Anyone on a participating restaurants’ Yelp business page can now see updates from the business, and diners can stay in the know by following their favorite restaurants. Restaurant owners will have full control of their updates, including setting end dates for posts about limited-time offerings. Yelp Connect empowers restaurants to market themselves on their own terms and capture the right audience by sharing posts with new and existing diners, such as new menu items, happy hour specials and upcoming events. “We’re focused on helping restaurants build stronger relationships with customers by extending our products across the diner journey - everything from finding a restaurant, getting seated, writing reviews and staying connected afterwards.” “Yelp Connect and Waitlist have helped us become an integral partner to restaurant owners as we evolve from a business discovery platform to a destination where consumers not only discover, but also interact and transact directly with businesses,” said Devon Wright, general manager of Restaurant Marketplaces at Yelp. These products are now available for purchase by logging into the Yelp for Business Owners site or the Yelp Waitlist site. Yelp Connect and Waitlist demonstrate Yelp’s increased focus and continued investment in developing solutions that bring value to both diners and restaurants on the platform. Yelp Connect is a new way for restaurants to share updates with consumers.
