Overview
Chefs have been toiling away in the back rooms of restaurants, food vans and kitchens for centuries, many times with no acknowledgment. HelloFood.co is a food social media that empowers chefs by creating a space for them to create content, get exposure and much more.

Background
When you visit a restaurant, you're not just there for the food. You're there for the experience. How many times have you check to see who the chef is? With HelloFood.co the chef can print a stylish QR code on the menu that links to their profile. This allows the chef to connect with their customers and build a following via the platform.
The challenge
Polydelic was tasked with creating an entire social media platform from scratch. That included reels, stories, posts, messaging, notifications, profiles, and much more. We had to create a platform that was easy to use and intuitive for both the chefs and the customers but also secure and scalable.
The business model
In order to maintain and grow a social media platform, you need to have a business model that gives incentives to content creators. We came up with some different models to generate revenue. The numbers include a breakdown of industry average and a high/med/low outcome.
