SMS for Food Trucks
Text your regulars where you're parked today, promote festival bookings and run discount codes on the go.
How food trucks use SMS
A food truck's biggest problem is that customers never know where it'll be tomorrow. Australian food trucks use Mobile Message to text their regulars the day's location the moment they set up, promote a festival or event booking ahead of time, and run a time-limited discount code to bring the lunch crowd back.
Mobile Message sends these at 1.6¢ per message on your first purchase with no monthly fees or contracts, so a daily location text to your whole customer list costs next to nothing. Send from your truck's name, personalise with a first name, and let customers reply to ask if you're coming to their street today.
Daily location and roaming alerts
Text your regulars where you're parked today, the moment you set up, so they don't waste a lunch break looking for you.
Festival and event booking promos
Let your list know when you'll be at a festival, market or private event, and drive a crowd before you arrive.
Discount and loyalty codes
