What's Cookin'
Hey food truckers, do you ever wonder what to do about your income if you're involved in a significant accident or fire? We are thrilled that our partner carrier offers loss of business income coverage for food trucks! This is the only or one of the only insurance carriers offering this important coverage.
Do I have your attention now...? What costs between $3,000-$5,000 is vinyl and may not be covered on your insurance? ANSWER: your wrap! Your wrap is your identity and probably worth way more to you that the actual dollar cost, but did you know that unless specifically covered on your policy you probably do not have coverage?
I am constantly amazed by the reach of social media and it's forever changing capabilities. Food Trucks and mobile food vendors are perfect examples of businesses mastering this art. When starting to write food trucks I was surprised how many did not have a website... How can you be in business without a website? Easy, be where your customers are. A friend of mine, owner and operator of The Chairman Truck is a more percise example. No website, but now almost 11,000 followers on Twitter and over 2,500 likes on facebook!! Their fans can easily find out where the Chairman trucks will be, what they are up to (up to the minute) and what's on the menu. They do not need a website and do not have to advertise. They simply have to engage their customers socially (while continuing to slang awesome buns).
Now I'm in insurance. Try getting fans talking insurance, I dare you! This is not the point, whither you have an irrestible product like savoy baos or a tough to talk about service like insurance social media WORKS, if done right. What is the most important thing to a consumer? My guess? It's what they want. Socia media is all about giving people what they want.
My question to you, what do you want from your insurance agent/broker? I'm still trying to figure it out, but in the meantime check out this video from Seabirds Truck from LA. They prove social media is for the birds!
It's exciting to finally get our website live and social media sites into action! We have been helping mobile food vendors for quite some time. Now we have a venue to post news, inform you of important insurance coverage and changes that affect your business and have some fun!
Insurance does not always carry a positive connotation, but it is our mission to help you to the point that you will love insurance as much as we do! Okay, I suppose that's a stretch, but we will at least inform and try to entertain you! We have been fortunate to attract a loyal following and rarely lose customers. Give us a shot, we will not disappoint.
