PROFILE
SUPERIOR VALUE TO MATCH YOUR SUPERIOR SERVICE
Only 3.
We only allow three Superior Partners to represent each drink and dining category.
We do this to keep our audiences from being overwhelmed and to prevent our recommendations from being diluted. To ensure that the correct three venues are selected to spearhead each category, applicants must go through an approval process. Once approved you’ll be welcomed and utilized as a cornerstone in our efforts to grow the Duluth drinking and food industry as a whole.
Once approved, the position is yours until you elect to drop the position. Unfortunately, this means that once the three slots of each category are filled, no other venues within that category may be accepted as a Superior Partner until/if a current Superior Partner elects to step down.

FAQ
-
The partnership fee is applied to our higher level partnerships that are looking to grow their business with Dine in Duluth. We promote these partners though both paid and owned channels such as digital advertising, our email list, our social media platforms, and our digital guide. The partnership covers the financial and time investment these services require.
-
No, there is an application process and standards that must be met prior to an organization being accepted into our Superior Partner Program and being rewarded with our Superior Host Recommendation. The application process consists of an interview, tasting, and online review benchmarks that must be met. Businesses are evaluated strictly on performance.
This ensures that every member of our Superior Partner program provides both great food and service to our community that we can proudly stand behind and recommend to our audience.
-
Yes, our start up partnership package is free and ensures that no restaurant, brewery, or local venue is left behind. We want to help promote the incredible flavors within the Duluth Community and feature all of the venues that make Duluth one of the premier dining centers in the United States.
-
We limit the number of Superior Hosts we recommend to only 3 per category to prevent our audiences from being overwhelmed and thus diluting our recommendation. It also keeps us honest in the evaluation process and forces us to be thoughtful and selective with our partnership approvals.
-
Once selected Superior Partners remain in the program until they opt to cancel their partnership or their performance drops below our Superior Host standards.
This means that if all Superior Partner slots have been filled within your category you may join a wait-list for the next open slot. We can not guarantee that a slot will become available again after all within your category have been filled.
