Add a little bit of strategic marketing, and you&#8217;ll be a few miles ahead of your competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to specialty marketing, there is a fine line between fun and cheesy. Knowing the difference can make all the difference. With Valentine&#8217;s Day right around the corner, making your mobile food truck<em>&nbsp;love ready<\/em>&nbsp;doesn&#8217;t have to be overwhelming.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few ways to combine the love for each other with the love for food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>1. Set the Tune<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding just a bit of music can set the mood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consider playing Valentine&#8217;s themed music in the background while customers order. Studies show that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/psychcentral.com\/news\/2010\/06\/19\/music-can-influence-chances-of-getting-a-date\/14789.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">romantic music<\/a>&nbsp;can encourage singles to want to mingle. What better place to meet and have a first date than&nbsp;<em>your<\/em>&nbsp;mobile food truck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few apps that allow you to create a personalized playlist:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Spotify<\/li><li>Amazon Music<\/li><li>Pandora<\/li><li>iHeart<\/li><li>SoundCloud<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Grab your Smartphone. Grab a Bluetooth speaker. Set the tune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>2. Dim the Lights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Lights. Food. Magic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outdoor lighting can set a perfect mood in seconds. Simply stringing lower wattage lights around your mobile food truck can help create a relaxed and romantic vibe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>3. Dazzle with Dessert<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you do dessert?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day is&nbsp;<em>the day<\/em>&nbsp;to offer something sweet and sultry. You don&#8217;t have to actually make the dessert, though, if sweet treats aren&#8217;t your food focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A great way to boost sales&nbsp;<em>and<\/em>&nbsp;network could be to collaborate with another food truck. If you offer delicious meals, consider finding another food truck vendor that offers delicious desserts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make it a food truck date night for customers to remember.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>4. Meal for Two<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>An easy way to market your food truck is to offer specialized Valentine&#8217;s Day food truck promotions like a meal for two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating a larger portion for two can be an easy option when it comes to effective mobile food truck marketing ideas. You could also consider renaming food choices with Valentine&#8217;s Day inspired themes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>5. Specialized Menu<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a great marketing option to pair with a meal for two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don&#8217;t have to go overboard with special recipes to make your menu Valentine&#8217;s Day ready. Simply choose some sweet and sassy flavors, or choose some recipes that use red\/pink hues like marinara or tomato creams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>6. Add Some Decor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a fine balance between too much and just enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no need to be cheesy when adding Valentine&#8217;s Day decor. Adding a few sweet&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bustle.com\/articles\/139992-20-valentines-day-decorations-that-arent-cheesy-and-will-make-your-home-feel-the-love\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">signs or marquees<\/a>&nbsp;can do the trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>7. Social Media for the Win<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.customconcessions.com\/food-truck-marketing-10-ways-to-improve-your-social-media-strategy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Social media<\/a>\u00a0may be your best marketing tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Post your menu, post your theme, post your specials. Make sure your customers, new and existing, know about your Valentine&#8217;s Day plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>That&#8217;s Amore<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/digitalmarketinginstitute.com\/en-us\/blog\/14-valentines-day-marketing-ideas-for-small-businesses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">marketing ideas<\/a>&nbsp;can be a great way to make the&nbsp;<em>day of love<\/em>&nbsp;memorable for your customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add some new flavors. Add a splash of romantic color and decor, plus some romantic music. Setting a Valentine&#8217;s Day mood doesn&#8217;t have to take a ton of time or money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Valentine&#8217;s Day is the perfect time to bring the food and fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Want more food truck advice? <\/em><\/strong><em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.customconcessions.com\/why-choose-custom-concessions-food-truck-builder-concession-vending-trailers-for-sale\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\">Check out more blog posts here<\/a><\/em><strong><em>!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Thinking about starting a food truck? <\/em><\/strong><em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.customconcessions.com\/contact-best-food-truck-trailer-builder-manufacturer\/\" target=\"_blank\">Request a free custom quote<\/a><\/em> and one of our food truck specialists will help you design the truck of your dreams.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Stay up to date on everything <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.customconcessions.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Custom Concessions<\/a> has to offer!
