Advertise Your Food Truck Business Using Truck Door Magnets

Food trucks have gained in popularity over the years starting in 2008 when the first food trucks were seen crawling the streets of New York and selling gourmet goodies to hungry foodies. The history of the food truck has its roots in the early pioneer days in America when during cattle drives, feeding the steer hands became tricky as they were always on the move.

This necessitated the invention of the food wagon. Fast forward to the more recent past and food trucks first became or regained popularity when gourmet chefs from some top restaurants in NYC started selling their choice pickings from trucks. This led to food truck spotting and with social media, the rest is history. So, perhaps you are thinking of starting a food truck business and are wondering about the signage. Truck door magnets are perhaps your best bet due to the following reasons.

Truck door magnets are easily removable and replaceable

Assuming the food truck has already been retrofitted to comply with health regulations, you must create appealing and attractive signage that will attract potential customers. This could be in the form of branding, a menu sign or better yet, a sign that shows the specials. When it comes to specials, the signage must be easily removable in order to show which special is at the moment current, something that is difficult with permanent signs. On the other hand, hanging signs looks tacky and unprofessional. Truck door magnets can be placed on any vertical metal surface of the truck and this will look both professional and very chic.

Truck door magnets are easy to maintain and durable

Food trucks are in the open and on the move most of the time. Whether it’s moving from the storage area to the selling area or from one selling area to another, food trucks are exposed to the elements. Also, selling food also means there may be some spills that get onto the sign and on the truck surface. Truck door magnets will make it easy for you to keep the truck looking spick and span as they can be easily removed, both the sign and surface cleaned and dried and returned as good as new. This is of course not easy with other forms of signs that fade with washing, peel and chaff with time. This longevity of the truck door magnets will go a long way towards reducing overall costs spent on the business while helping you maintain a consistent brand image and identity over time.

Running a food truck business is both satisfying and very exciting and getting the right mix of marketing, popular appeal and great food offerings will definitely propel you to business stardom. But it must be always remembered that any business lives and dies by the rules of basic business principles including marketing, budgeting, customer care and so on. Use truck door magnets to satisfy at least the advertising aspect of business expediency but also pay close attention to all the other aspects of running a business successfully.
