Example marketing text messages for takeaways and restaurants

{“type”:”block”,”srcClientIds”:[“1fdb39ac-3f6c-4666-ace4-c254cc077086″],”srcRootClientId”:””}Your chefs may be superstar cooks like Gordon Ramsay or Jamie Oliver, but if you can’t get people into your restaurant, how will you be able to treat them to your world-famous chilli crab curry.

To be able to get people to come to your restaurant or order from your takeaway, you need to be able to do 2 things;
1. Communicate with them
2. Persuade to them that coming to you or ordering from you, is the best option for them

The first one is easy, just send them a simple text message. With 98% of all text messages being opened and 90% being read within 3 minutes, SMS is the perfect marketing channel to communicate with customers, knowing that your message will be read almost instantly.

Being a restaurant or takeaway, knowing that your message will be read as soon as it is sent is vital. If your message is not read, even just a couple of hours after it was sent, then the message is void and a waste of time and money, because your customers may have already eaten, or already decided what to eat.

Below we have added a whole bunch of example marketing text messages for takeaways and restaurants. Feel free to copy or adapt any of these to suit your needs. They are all 160 characters or less, so will only cost you 1 credit to send.

Remember to put your specific opt-out code at the end of each marketing message, by clicking the ‘Stop’ button, so customers can opt out if they don’t want to receive your messages anymore{“type”:”block”,”srcClientIds”:[“1fdb39ac-3f6c-4666-ace4-c254cc077086″],”srcRootClientId”:””}
