Food trucks are the latest craze to sweep the nation. Despite their humble appearances, they house state-of-the-art kitchens and produce some of the most phenomenal gourmet food. Food Network held a competition named The Great Food Truck Race. The popular television series helped the public realize the brilliant nature of these mobile eateries.
Social Media Announces Location
Food trucks announce their locations through social media outlets like Facebook and Twitter. This allows patrons to know where to find their favorite restaurant on wheels whenever they get a craving for something different to eat. This adds an element of excitement to lunch and dinner time. Fans of food trucks can even have updates sent to them via text message or email.
Loyal Customers Rewarded with Pins
Lapel pins are being made for these vendors to give out to loyal customers to help brand their truck. When people see the lapel pins, they ask the wearer about the truck, the food, and where to find it in their city. That's what makes custom pins an extremely inexpensive and effective marketing tool.
Ways to Distribute Pins
Here are some creative ways that food truck owners distribute pins:
- Some owners include a custom lapel pin in each box of food that goes out the food truck window. This allows the customer to do some word-of-mouth advertising for the business.
- Some owners create special pins for customers that frequent the truck a certain number of times. This encourages loyalty because who doesn't love free food?
- Some owners give pins to employees for identification purposes. This makes it easier for customers to ask questions because they know who to approach.
If you are the owner of a food truck and you want to make a bold statement, consider branding yourself with custom lapel pins. Give Lapel Pins Plus a call at 1-800-252-0904 or email
