Respect your visitors

And trust me that’s all they want, they may let go even if their pizza comes out bland or coffee lukewarm at times if you make them feel at home. Also, to make them feel at home is not entirely the responsibility of your interior designer that means to say how you’ve set up your cafe, restaurant or food van. How you treat them, matters most.

Guide your customer’s entire home delivery journey through text messages. Acknowledgment through text messages is a thing that would give closure to your customers while their food is on the way. Your order has been accepted; Your order is on the way, We are just 5 minutes away! Are some of the examples you could put to use.

A message to deliver gratitude after the payment has been done is an added cherry on the cake.

Nurture the relationship

The best use you can put your begotten cloud-based Bulk Text Messaging Service is that you can send promotional text messages and offer messages to your users. Festival discounts, discounts on days like Black Friday, Cyber Monday, etc., will for sure pour you in a lot of customers back.

You may also ask them to share promo code for your restaurant to share any number of people and get incentives accordingly.

Text them updates on new arrivals, create texts that describe some of your very loved dishes, scrumptiously and give a link to order the same.

Do not bunch and blast

Segment your audience to serve them better. Make a little effort to see their background and what institute or organization they belong to. Send them offers and updates according to their requirement and also previous choices.

Maintain their privacy  

Make sure your customers have consensually given your restaurant or cafe their phone numbers. If you send them messages when they haven’t opted for the same, could be illegal and only do you harm.

Do not annoy them with text messages haphazardly fix to time, as to not invade their personal space.

Time matters, as usual

Send them text messages during prime time or peak hours before people are expected to have their meals, this increases the efficiency of your delivered text message but obviously. Do not send them early in the morning and any other time when it is not needed.

Unexpected messages cause a general spurt of annoyance and can cause aversion from your brand, making a dent that wouldn’t be easy to fix.

Keep the interval between two of your text messages enough, so as to not appear clingy and annoying, keep them sparse, it only makes sense.
