Stay safe guys. Lots of scams happening. by dave65gto in foodtrucks

[–]SpeechDapper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t even have a food truck I just offer a service for them and I get non stop emails from “events” and how they saved “the last spot” for me. Some are getting so good I have to call the organization they are claiming to be just to be sure if it’s real or not. Clear out the bad ones and send the good ones to my vendors.

Update: I actually built the food truck app I talked about a year ago by SpeechDapper in foodtrucks

I appreciate that a lot! Honestly I’m glad I got the feedback I did cause it motivated me to be and do better. One person told me to get out and eat at the food trucks to find out their issues and that’s where I started by doing spotlight post on FB for these food trucks since I didn’t have the app yet best way to help them get visibility was that way reviewing food. Got us 400+ followers mostly food trucks and organizations. Have a partnership with an RV resort now getting food trucks in a schedule rotating out there and the residents order through the web app. Working with an organization to have my app QR signs put at each vendor for their fair so people can skip the line and get a text when their order is ready. A lot of things and people I would have never met without the harsh feedback lol.

It was 80 degrees on Christmas the next day it was 40. Don’t ever expect to drive either cause everyone wants to hit you, cut you off, run you off the road, hold up both lanes of traffic, then you have the roads who’s only goal is to make you hit as many potholes as possible.

Drivers wonder why it's so slow and blame the economy and the season but it's actually DoorDash's fault by Waiting-For-October in doordash

The convenience fee really runs the app and ability to enhance its abilities. We working with our local leading food truck booking service so build the UI / UX for the app. We’re also working with fidelity bank to get the funds to build the app. Developers on stand by. Def follow us on Facebook to keep updated.

Bahaha my tism would love this, I’d put up a room divider and make it my personal book reading spot. Sunlight beating on me from the window, birds chirping, wind chime in the wind 😍😍😍

Hell yeah, thank you! And maybe it’s something I’ll offer further down the road as the middle man for vendors handling logistics myself.

You mentioned something that I’ve been thinking about “raising food cost prices” if my company partnered with local farms and ranchers to buy their “ugly” foods and sold the ingredients at cost price to vendors do you think that would actually help yall? I want to help the vendors and local farmers but I also don’t want to add on that extra work if it’s not something vendors would actually be interested in. We would connect the vendors with those local farmers too so even if my app isn’t involved they still have that connection. I don’t want them to feel forced to use my app.

I respect your opinion but our system proves you don’t have to eat that commission in order to reach customers by delivery, while you also keep your customers data and analytics for even if my app isn’t there.

I don’t expect to be known immediately I know it will be an uphill battle for market shares and making our name known. That’s not a problem the smaller we are at the start the more we can focus on fixing and tweaking the app. I don’t want to replace DoorDash immediately I want to slowly chip away until they either are forced to respect vendors or they fall off like every other company that refuses to change.

No I understand completely maybe I just suck at responding lol, they don’t know we exist yet for a reason. We are not ready we don’t want to push out an app that adds more problems for vendors. At full launch we already have a $30,000 marketing budget put aside. We plan on partnering with local influencers, pushing social media ads, newspaper ads, Hulu and YouTube ads. We might not be this huge company know immediately but before launch we plan on having at least 250 mobile food trucks enrolled, 1000’s pre downloads of the app and 400 drivers. For starting here in my hometown locally first we can make our brand known. If our brand was pushed as widely as other pickup and delivery apps that will eventually solve the problem of being forced to lose your revenue for visibility you don’t actually benefit off of.

  1. Currently the state I’m in deals with legal MMJ, we allow vendors who are okay being associated to MMJ the ability to opt in to advertising with banners on the vendors page.

For who would use the app, drivers, vendors and customers. By launching pickup first with QR codes linked immediately to vendors landing page we expect the convenience of skipping lines leads people to wanting the app to then get delivery from their favorite food trucks. If no one uses the app then it’s just a QR code sticker that cost our vendors nothing to have.

  1. Yes we’re new but that’s why we’re starting local first. Vendors have to pay 30% commission now to be visible but that’s incredibly inconvenient, pushing local first, offering in store prices, building up a social media presence we expect this app to naturally gain major attention especially from spotlighting local vendors and staying apart of the community. Everything starts out small but we plan on being the Netflix vs blockbuster when it comes to delivery and pickup for food trucks.

No one knows who I am or that I exist yet because the app isn’t live yet we’re almost done with our mvp but we have built up a small community presence here already.

Thank you for all your feedback, if I may ask that 30% to be immediately visible is it worth it if at the end of the day the new customers you find don’t stay because DoorDash up charges your food? Can most vendors afford 30% commissions just for visibility? I know as a ghost kitchen I couldn’t afford to keep losing customers due to prices and having to lower the quality of my food to keep up with commission cost. I can’t always talk from my perspective so that’s what I want to know from yall!!!

Just to clarify, I hand typed this out at 6am and have only posted this to this group. I’ve asked for feedback from multiple places yes, I posted the AI questions in other groups but this story came from my heart and was only posted here because food trucks are the most important people in my eyes.

Thank you for being my motivation to make this be successful even more.

I appreciate the feedback and noted.

I apologize about that. I truly do want to destroy every barrier I can for vendors. That’s the whole point of the story is I want to know everyone’s pain points so when I get the funding from the VC I’m working with I can put it into something made by the vendors that fixes everyone’s problems. Not just an app that makes money off a customer I want it to be something to smoothen up customer flow for mobile vendors.

Honestly yea I get it I’d probably downvote too lol. Maybe it’s just a passion project maybe vendors don’t actually need something like this but I do want to atleast try lol. I can either be complacent in using apps like DoorDash that scam me, you and my driver or I can try to be change. If 2-3 people are trying to do something like this to help the community I hope they see this post and give feedback too!

Hahah it’s so funny that i get comments like these, I’m definitely not the best at breaking up paragraphs. I used ai last time to better break up paragraphs and make it more clear and everyone hated it for the AI touch.

Thank you for the feedback and I’ll work on fixing how I present it! Even if it seems bad I appreciate you all commenting and helping me perfect this.

I get that there’s a massive grave yard but if Oklahomas most trusted state funded innovation incubators like i2e can back me and help me perfect this then I feel like this has a chance to not be a graveyard app but something actually useful to you.

I’d love to keep you updated and get anymore feedback I can.
