One Bite Foodie Investor Pitch Deck
Purpose:
Why One Bite Foodie Exists
At One Bite Foodie, our mission is simple: to empower local food influencers and small restaurants by providing a platform to share authentic stories, drive traffic, and grow their businesses. The heart of our platform lies in creating genuine connections between foodies and the mom-and-pop establishments that bring communities to life.
Inspired by a taco tour in Cancun, Mexico, our founder, Joseph Haecker, built One Bite Foodie as a space where influencers can earn money while promoting local culinary gems. It’s more than just food—it’s about people, stories, and community.
Problem:
What Pain We Solve
The food and beverage industry faces two significant challenges:
1. Influencers Struggle to Monetize
Current platforms like TikTok and Instagram are saturated, making it difficult for smaller influencers to stand out and earn a living.
2. Local Restaurants Struggle for Visibility
With limited marketing budgets, small businesses often can't compete with larger chains, leaving them overlooked.
The result?
A missed opportunity to create meaningful connections and growth for both parties.
Solution:
Why One Bite Foodie Is the Answer
We’ve built a unique platform tailored to meet these challenges:
For Influencers:
• Unlimited public content for free, including a tip feature to start earning immediately.
• Private content for $4.99/month, where influencers earn 80% of subscriber revenue.
For Restaurants:

• Opportunities for collaborations, food tours, secret menu promotions, and more.
One Bite Foodie isn’t just another social platform—it’s a revenue-driving machine for food creators and local businesses.
