Questions

Does Loco Eatz accept paid collaborations?

Yes. Sponsored features, placements, event coverage, product launches and ambassadorships are all available. Every paid or hosted collaboration is clearly disclosed to the audience.

Does payment guarantee a positive review?

No — never. Payment covers Brandon’s time, creativity and reach, not a guaranteed opinion. The honest take is what makes the audience trust it, and that’s the whole value. If something isn’t great, it gets said respectfully — or we talk first.

What areas do you cover?

Home base is Stockton and the 209 (Lodi, Manteca, Modesto, Tracy). Coverage extends to Sacramento, Oakland, San Francisco, wine country and select travel destinations like Tijuana.

How far in advance should we reach out?

For a standard feature, two to three weeks is ideal. For events, launches or dated campaigns, the earlier the better — reach out as soon as you have a timeline.

Can we use the content in our own ads?

Yes. Usage rights, content licensing and paid-media whitelisting can be included. Mention it in your inquiry so it’s scoped from the start.

How do Spotlight placements work?

Your business is featured at the top of the homepage and The Guide for the agreed window, clearly labeled as sponsored. Impressions and clicks are tracked and shared with you in a report.
