Tips for Your Food Truck Business
1. Follow the Food Truck Trends
Food truck owners active in the culinary industry need to stay on top of the latest food truck trends. As time passes, the world sees changes in attitudes about health, the environment, and the community. All of these changing attitudes can affect your food truck business.

2. Market Your Food Truck
One of the benefits of owning a food truck is that the vehicle itself is a larger-than-life, mobile advertisement.

Your truck should not be your only advertisement, however. If you are in the food industry, using the visual appeal of the food you serve is critical, especially on social media platforms like Instagram.

3. Ensure that You Meet All Legal Requirements
As a food truck operator, you have to show that you meet all city regulations as well as relevant state and federal laws. These requirements come down to health safety, business licensing, and rules about zoning and parking.

4. Stay Organized
Imagine being hired to do the catering for a public event but failing to show up because your food truck broke down. If you don’t organize properly, catastrophic failures like this can occur.

Food Truck Management Tips For Maximum Profit
1. Focus on great service
In our growing foodie culture there are plenty of places to eat. Make a visit to your food truck a special place for the food and the way your customers are treated.

2. Keep staff optimistic
Negative emotions are contagious. If your staff is feeling down (for whatever reason), their performance will drop and customers will quickly catch on.

3. Build trust
This makes it easier to clear up problems in areas such as scheduling or personal relationships, and helps your employees work together effectively.

4. Plan ahead
Don’t let surprises happen. Keep an eye on your truck’s inventory closely and order as needed, schedule with vacations, special events, and extra tasks in mind.

5. Keep your cool
Don’t blow up at employees. You need to understand that mistakes are part of human nature. Instead of assigning blame, look for solutions.

Things to know before starting a food truck:

1. Stay Up To Date On Rules In Your Area
As an owner, it can get quite confusing trying to keep up with and understand all of the different mobile vending laws and to obtain all of the required credentials.

Each state and city’s requirements are different, but out here in California you need about a handful of different credentials before opening up your doors such as a California Seller’s Permit (from the state), a Local Health Department Permit (from the county), a city business/peddler’s license (from the city), etc.

As a food truck owner you also need to have a Food Safety Handler’s certification and even your truck itself needs to be certified as well through the Housing & Community Development (HCD Department). If you operate in multiple counties or in different cities, you would need a whole new set of credentials for those locations as well.

2. Give Yourself Enough Time To Get Everything Together
Check with promoters, farmers markets, lunch spots, etc. about their waiting lists for trucks. A lot of trucks come out with the thought that they will be able to bring their new truck to all these events, but sometimes the waiting lists are months, even years.

3 Ways How to Attract More Customers to Your Food Truck

1. Create Custom Signage
Branding is key when it comes to selling food, coffee, and even alcohol, so it’s best to design and create a brand that will attract people before revealing your product. One of the most famed food truck brands in America is named “Eggslut.” A food truck that concentrates on egg-based food items at an attractive price point. The name is catchy and turns heads, combined with incredible food, and it was no wonder these guys expanded to 5 locations in the US and 6 locations across the planet. From a concept to reality in less than a weekend, Eggslut really shows the beauty of how a food truck can take over the minds of the public.
2. Utilize Social Media
In the film “Chef,” the chef’s son shows his Dad how to use social media for the benefit of creating more custom. Despite only being young, he attracts the largest crowds using clever social media marketing techniques. Fortunately for you, this isn’t something that can only happen in the movies. Creating, developing, and implementing a social media marketing plan can help you attract more than a few customers. You’ll have a line around the block before you know it.
3. Invite Influencers For Free
This might be one of your least favorite tips on how to attract more customers. No one likes giving out free lunches, but in this case, it might be worth it.
Depending on who you ask, you might be able to get away with just giving an influencer some free food for the chance of a shout out to their followers. With the growing number of food bloggers and wannabe food bloggers hitting socials, it’s wise to take advantage of them instead of snubbing them.

5 Must-Know Tips for First Time Food Truck Owners

- Research & Planning
Know your options and your needs before making any purchases. Evaluate all the potential trade-offs for buying versus renting, custom build versus buying used. Consider the immediate Investment of new versus ongoing maintenance, improvements, or modification costs that might come up over the first year or two with a used option.

- Organization & Layout
A food truck is a kitchen on wheels with limited space, yet rapid prep and cooking expectations. Diagram out a few different layouts options that might accommodate your needs. You could even create a physical model with boxes or tables so you can get a feel for how you would work in the space.

- Know the Regulations
Check not only your state and local regulations but county and fire department as well. There are many regulations impacting food trucks and a variety of licenses and permits required. Review online resources for guidance. This is another situation where it is advantageous to network with other food truck operators. You can benefit from their experience in helping to navigate the variety of requirements and other potential obstacles.

- Menu Simplicity and Uniqueness
When developing your menu, keep it simple, yet distinctive. Look for niche food concepts that have broad appeal and can fill a gap in current local truck offerings. Consider classic comfort foods that you can reinvent with a signature new spin. Incorporate some of the latest trends or seasonal flavors into familiar favorites.

- Branding Your Truck
Stickers or wraps? Bold branding or simpler signs? Classic or kitchen? Picking the theme and imagery that best captures your menu and personality is absolutely part of the fun of starting up your food truck
