Instead of restaurants though, I thought to target local industries and brick&mortar companies. Here's an additional idea to further add to this: Once you build relationships with these clients, you can also offer them other services. - Logo design / redesign and online branding. Many local small-town business often do not have a marketing identity such as a logo or a theme. You can offer them a unique logo for X amount of $ and convince them that this would give them a leading edge over the competition. I've seen logo packages go for around $1000 or so. Of course - you can outsource this work for probably 1/10th of that. - Directory submission. Tell them how it would even further benefit their name and give them extra exposure (from like nearby towns, districts, etc.) if you submit their business to proper online directories. Again, this is something you could outsource and charge x amount of $$$ for. Great post, and actually very similar to an idea I have pondered to try here locally.
