As the team at GoTab, we've seen how being digitally savvy can transform your food truck business. Here are some insider tips from the pros on making your food truck shine on TikTok.
Behind-the-Scenes Action
Show your followers what goes into running your food truck. Share clips of daily prep, cooking, and setting up. These behind-the-scenes looks are perfect for social media. Maybe it is what goes into picking a location or a collage of driving to some different spots.
"A Day in the Life" Series
Create videos that highlight a day in the life of your team or the journey of your ingredients. This personal touch helps connect with your audience and showcases the people behind the food. This can be a weekly or monthly series where you talk about your sales journey, slow nights, and busy nights while adding a sense of authenticity.
Join the Trends
TikTok is all about trending content. Participate in popular food challenges or create your own to boost visibility. We've seen food trucks go viral overnight! Here are some currently trending videos-
- Brat Summer- Yes, there is a dance to learn, but there can be some fun twists on this trend such as apple pay or a themed sauce or menu item bassed on this (we advise looking it up)
- Olympics are hot right now, maybe see if theres a fun twist on one of the snoop dogg means or any country specific videos you can do, creating food items for each country.
- Yes, thanks to the new deadpool movie, “ Bye Bye Bye” is popular once again, do with that information as you will.
Customer Creations
Encourage your customers to create their own TikToks at your truck. Set up a designated spot for filming. A unique hashtag for your truck can help track these posts and foster a sense of community.
Influencer Partnerships
Collaborating with influencers can significantly boost your reach. You don't always need a big budget – exclusive offers or previews of new menu items can be very effective. Micro or nano influencers would usually be open to working with you for comped food, a simple message to them may do the trick.
Educational Content
Position your truck as a food authority by sharing educational content. Quick facts about your dishes or cooking techniques can engage and inform your followers.
