Holiday shopping in major cities across the United States, often brings shoppers out on days when the temperatures are chilly. One of the most popular cures for cold temperatures is a warm beverage. If you are a food truck operator consider adding a couple festive holiday beverages to your menu. Peppermint hot chocolate or warm spiced cider are among the most popular steaming beverages that attract customers. Once word gets out that you are offering something warm to drink, customers are likely to try one of your other menu items as well.

Another way to attract shoppers during the holiday season is to show a little cheer yourself and let people know you are embarrassing the holidays at your food truck. Creating a custom wrap for your truck might not be in the budget but spending a few dollars to decorate the inside of your truck with lights and other festive decorations can go a long way toward showing people you are in the holiday spirit. Encourage your employees to wear holiday pins or have new holiday themed company shirts made for your employees to wear during the holidays.

This holiday season, say thank you to your current followers and entice others to join your online network by offering them a special holiday gift. Send out a tweet to your followers wishing them a happy holidays and offer them a free warm beverage if they send out a tweet about your business.
