The "Outreach Overload" Problem
Chasing event planners via endless emails between shifts, like following up on wedding catering inquiries right after serving lunch rush
Missing peak-season vendor partnerships, such as summer festival supply deals, due to scattered follow-ups amid fluctuating ingredient orders
Wasted fuel and time driving to cold pitches that go nowhere, like scouting parking spots for unbooked corporate pop-ups
Overwhelmed by seasonal demand, like holiday party surges, without automated lead nurturing for repeat catering clients
Struggling to personalize outreach amid fluctuating street traffic and daily menu changes for pop-up locations
Losing corporate catering leads to competitors with slicker systems, such as office lunch box deliveries outpacing your manual bids

Why Choose Us
Here's the thing: running a food truck means you're always on the move, but sales outreach shouldn't chain you to your phone during prime serving hours. At AIQ Labs, we build a tailored AI system that automates the grunt work—researching local events, crafting personalized emails to planners and vendors, and even scheduling follow-ups. No off-the-shelf templates. We integrate it directly with your booking calendar and CRM, so every lead flows seamlessly into your workflow. You're probably thinking, 'Does this really fit my unpredictable schedule?' Absolutely. We map your routes, peak times, and target clients—like festivals or office parks—to make it hum like your best kitchen setup.

Save 15 Hours Weekly on Prospecting: Let's be honest, you're not a salesperson—you're a chef on wheels juggling grill times and plating. Our system handles the research and emailing, so you spend less time typing pitches and more prepping sauces for that big wedding gig. Owners see a quick ROI, often recouping costs in the first month through one extra $5,000 catering booking.

Boost Bookings by 40% with Smarter Targeting: Picture your truck as the star ingredient in every event, from farm-to-table festivals to boxed lunch corporate meets. We train the AI on your sales data—like past taco truck hits at music fests—to prioritize high-value leads. Result? More yeses on 20-event proposals, fewer no-shows, and a productivity spike that turns outreach into a revenue machine with $10K+ monthly upsell.
Cut Costs on Hired Help or Wasted Ads
Cut Costs on Hired Help or Wasted Ads: No more paying $500 for generic lead lists that flop on low-budget wedding inquiries.

It's like having a sous-chef for sales: efficient, reliable, and always ready to scale with your growth during peak festival seasons.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, I was emailing event coordinators manually after every shift—it ate my weekends prepping for the next day's grill. Now, the system sends tailored pitches for summer festivals, and I've booked three corporate taco lunches in the last two months without lifting a finger. Saved me about 12 hours a week, easy, letting me focus on perfecting my salsas."
Maria Gonzalez
Owner, Taco Trekker Food Truck, specializing in mobile Mexican catering
"We were missing out on vendor deals for fresh produce because follow-ups slipped through the cracks during busy barbecue rushes. Their AI not only automates it but personalizes based on my menu tweaks, like adding vegan options. Landed a steady supplier partnership last quarter for summer events, cutting ingredient costs by 20%. It's a game-changer for mobile ops like mine."
Jamal Reed
Founder and Head Chef, Grill on Wheels, mobile barbecue specialist
"I thought automation was for big chains, but AIQ built something that fits my truck's crazy schedule around pop-up spots. It researches local corporate parks and drafts emails that sound like me, highlighting my fusion sushi rolls. Doubled my catering leads for office events in six weeks—no more cold calls during lunch rush, and bookings jumped from 5 to 12 per month."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle my irregular food truck schedule?
We get it—your days aren't 9-to-5; they're dictated by permits, weather, and crowds. Our custom AI learns your patterns from past data, like peak lunch hours or weekend festivals. It schedules outreach during downtime and pauses during service rushes. For instance, if you're at a market all day, emails draft in the background and send post-shift. We've built this for trucks like yours, ensuring it boosts efficiency without adding stress. Owners report 15 hours saved weekly, directly translating to more family time or menu innovation. It's all tailored—no one-size-fits-all here.
What kind of ROI can I expect from this for my food truck?
You're probably thinking about the numbers. Let's break it down: most food truck owners see a 3-5x ROI in the first quarter. If manual outreach costs you 10-15 hours a week at $50/hour opportunity cost, that's $500-750 saved monthly. Add in 20-40% more bookings from personalized pitches—say, two extra $1,000 catering gigs—and you're netting $2,000+ profit. We track this with built-in metrics, like conversion rates per lead source. One client turned a $5K build into $25K annual revenue uplift. It's not magic; it's smart targeting of events where your truck shines.
Is this system secure for my customer and lead data?
Absolutely, security is non-negotiable in food service where one data slip could tank your rep. We use enterprise-grade encryption and comply with standards like GDPR and CCPA, plus food-specific regs for vendor info. Your leads—event details, client emails—stay locked in a custom dashboard only you access. No third-party clouds we don't control. We've audited systems for mobile ops facing theft risks at events. Think of it as a locked cooler: everything's protected, with audit logs for peace of mind. Clients love the two-way integrations that keep data flowing safely without exposure.
Can it integrate with my existing tools like Square or Eventbrite?
Yes, we specialize in seamless ties to tools you already use. For a food truck, that means pulling sales data from Square to inform outreach—like suggesting add-ons based on popular items—and syncing bookings directly to Eventbrite. No manual exports; it's all automated. We map your exact workflow: a lead from an event planner flows into your calendar, updates inventory forecasts, and even triggers invoice prep. This cuts errors, like double-booking spots. One operator integrated in a week and saw leads convert 50% faster. We're builders, so if it's not perfect, we code the fix on the spot.
How long does it take to set up and see results?
Setup is quick but thorough—typically 4-6 weeks from discovery to launch, customized to your pace. We start with a deep dive into your operations, build the AI core, test with sample leads, and train you hands-on. Results kick in fast: initial outreach campaigns run in week 3, with owners spotting more responses within days. For example, a taco truck client had their first automated booking in under a month, scaling to steady gigs by quarter's end. It's not overnight, but the time savings start immediately, letting you focus on what matters: serving killer food while leads roll in.
What if I expand to multiple trucks or a brick-and-mortar?
Our systems scale effortlessly as you grow—that's the beauty of custom builds. Start with one truck's outreach, and we expand to fleet-wide targeting, like coordinating pitches for group events. When you add a fixed location, the AI adapts, incorporating walk-in data to refine vendor deals. We've helped trucks transition to full restaurants, maintaining the same dashboard for unified leads. No rebuilding; just modular upgrades. A client grew from one rig to three and saw outreach efficiency double without added headcount. It's designed for your journey, from street corners to storefronts.
