We've Got Your Back.

Stop letting a great restaurant get outshined by mediocre marketing.

Get an all-in-one, fractional marketing team built by industry insiders. We handle your photography, graphic design, local SEO, and automated guest retention, so you can keep your focus on the floor.

You built an incredible venue. Your digital presence should reflect that.

Running a successful restaurant or bar is already a full-time job. You deliver phenomenal food, craft incredible drinks, and build an unforgettable atmosphere. But in today's market, great hospitality isn't always enough to fill seats on a Tuesday night.

Most owners get stuck choosing between two bad options:

Bloated corporate agencies

Expensive, slow, and run by junior staff who don't understand hospitality culture.

Unreliable freelancers

Cheap, but missing the high-end marketing systems, SEO tools, and strategic depth needed to actually drive revenue.

The result? You're left feeling overworked, taking low-quality iPhone photos during peak service, and watching less deserving places steal your local foot traffic.

Built by hospitality veterans, for hospitality leaders

We've been on the floor.

Detrás is the kitchen call you hear when someone has your back while you're holding a hot plate. That's exactly how we operate.

Between us we have spent close to 45 years across hospitality and marketing, so we know the chaos of service, the late-night ideas, and how frustrating it is when hard work doesn't translate to a full dining room. We bring enterprise-grade marketing technology, real creative production, and industry grit, without the agency bloat.

Detrás Co. is led by founder , who owns the local search, website, menu, and reporting work. A partner runs photography and video production; a third runs sales and first calls. It is one small team, and the person who scopes your account is the person who runs it.

We don't try to save sinking ships. We partner with healthy, great concepts to gas them up and make them shine.

What we do

Everything a guest sees before they pick your place.

Detrás Co. is a fractional marketing team for independent venues. We run Denver restaurant marketing, Denver bar marketing, and Denver hospitality marketing for owners who would rather be on the floor than in a dashboard. See all seven services.

Local SEO & Listing Management

Your Google Business Profile, Apple Maps, and Yelp kept current, so a guest three miles away gets the right hours and the right menu. See how we run restaurant SEO in Denver.

Photography & Video

Monthly shoots on your floor, during service, with your food and your room. Short-form video cut for the feeds your guests already scroll. See our Denver restaurant photography and video.

Menus, Websites & Ordering

Almost every guest meets you on a phone first. We fix the menu that opens sideways and the order that takes six taps. Read what a restaurant mobile agency handles.

Menu & Brand Copywriting

Your food is better than your menu says it is. We write the dish descriptions, the about page, and the emails in your own voice. See our hospitality copywriting services.
