What We Do at Social High Rise

We are the eyes, ears, and voice of restaurants, online, through social media. When we partner with a restaurant owner or manager, we take the social media piece off of their plate so they don’t have to worry about it. Here’s what we do:

• develop authentic content and post to a variety of social media platforms each week.
• reach out to customers on review sites by crafting and sending genuine responses to individuals who write positive and challenging reviews.
• engage with customers by sharing the photos they took in-house and responding to customer questions and comments posting online.

Core Values at Social High Rise

At Social High Rise, we hustle as a team, take ownership of our work, and show gratitude often. We strive to remain optimistic, humble, and resourceful with all things. We act thoughtfully and responsibly, with each other, our clients, and our community.

Other Stuff

Our headquarters is located at the heart of downtown Chico, in beautiful Northern California. We're walking distance from the best farmers markets, shops, restaurants, Bidwell Park (one of the largest city parks in California), and California State University, Chico. We’re biking distance from just about anywhere in town and our office is literally in an old “grand ballroom” on the 3rd floor of a 100-year-old building. It features 20-foot gold ceilings, huge windows, and tons of natural light. The roof used to leak, but that's fixed now. Win. 

We gather for "team time" each week to review company milestones, recognize team accomplishments, and shamelessly share our blunders. Sometimes we even have cupcakes. 

Perks: free pizza from the best pizza joint in town, snacks, friendship, and wisdom. Plus, we have a punching bag, a beautifully customized corn hole set made by one of our dad's, and a central heating and A/C system that functions properly only sometimes. Also, we listen to music.
