FoodChoo is an OnDemand! Now!™ Food delivery platform that consists of three separate apps.
This is the first main difference between FoodChooand other food delivery platforms.
Your drivers will often be current Staff - or you can hire someone for an hour where they deliver ONLY for you during that one hour shift.
A shift will most likely last just a single hour as you won't want hot food on the road for more than that (more on this later).
Now with traditional food delivery apps, you'll receive the order, an app delivery driver will turn up and grab the food and dash off.
This is the main difference FoodChoo offers you and your restaurant or establishment.
Let's use an example to show what we're all about, and how FoodChoo is going to benefit you:
Let's say your business is called KombuchaWOW and you sell a range of delicious kombucha flavours. However, it's the Phuket Blue flavour that the Customers best know you for!
So, wanting to try FoodChoo straight away, you'll create your own Phuket Blue kombucha deal.
Make sure you use a killer description and a great photo taken with your own mobile phone like you do with your Instagram photos.
Total time to set this up = 5 minutes
And yes, you could just as easily be a burger restaurant, or sell amazing pizzas - or Chinese. Or vegan food. Or.. (you get the idea!)
Being your first day on FoodChoo, you decide to just sell 5 bottles of Phuket Blue kombucha to see how well it goes.
So in the FoodChoo Establishment you'll create a NEW POPUP MENU and set 5 as the amount you're going to be selling, and set the delivery area you want to cover tonight (or leave the default 3 miles / 5km)
Total time to set this up = 1 minute
We always suggest selling just 2 or 3 of your most popular menu item through FoodChoo on your first couple of days. Pizzas and hotdogs are always crowd favourites too!
Although you have a few staff that work for you, for today's Kombucha deliveries you want Abraham to do them. Now Abraham can use his own transport, or maybe you have a scooter or transport he can use for the hour.
Abraham needs to have been verified by us as an authorised Driver first (the app asks to take a picture of his driving license and verifies within 30 seconds)
Once verified, then he taps START SHIFT in his app.
Now you can assign him menu items ready for him. Could be 5 bottles of cold sparkling kombucha, or it could be 3 of your best-selling pizzas!
Now, if you're selling kombucha, you can give the bottles straight to Abraham and off he goes, BUT let's say you're selling tacos! It might take you a while to cook up 5 x Chicken Taco Supremes, but once they're ready, you tap the FoodChoo app and assign all 5 items to Abraham.
Time taken to set this up = Less than 10 seconds!
FoodChoo will immediately notify Eaters in your area that there are 3 bottles of delicious sparkling kombucha (or, remember the 5 x Chicken Taco Supreme deals!)
Pretty much, as soon as you tell the FoodChoo app you've given the menu items to Abraham, you should start getting orders within a minute or so!
By the time Abraham starts his engine, there's a good chance all of the menu items you assigned to him will be ALREADY SOLD!
Time taken from FoodChoo signup to being ready to sell your menus..
6 MINUTES.
Yes. Really.
This is the second part of our FoodChoo "secret sauce" - it's how we made our Eater app work better for everyone - here's a quick rundown for you to better understand how we use our On Demand! Now! technology to help you sell more food.
As you already know with current food delivery apps and food delivery platforms; The Eater opens their app, thinks they want a pizza and 45 minutes later a cold, lifeless box of stringy cheese crust disappointment is dropped off to them.
It wasn't your fault - you did everything right and cooked the pizza and it was hot, fresh and delicious when you gave it to the Driver
But then 45 mins later, the Eater finally gets that pizza and it's been smashed around, it's got colder and it's made the box greasy and has made your restaurant look bad, and made the Eater annoyed af
They have two methods to order from you:
As you already know with current food delivery apps and food delivery platforms; The Eater opens their app, thinks they want a pizza and 45 minutes later a cold, lifeless box of stringy cheese crust disappointment is dropped off to them.
The Eater sees that your Driver has 3 of the 5 Chicken Taco Supreme deals left, after already selling 2 already and also sees the Driver is only 1 minute away from them!
They order, and then see your Driver's live location as he heads towards them in real time.
The Eater wants Mexican food, and isn't interested in anything else!
They tap their I AM HUNGRY button and set "Mexican" as their preferred cuisine type. If they have any food allergies too, they would have set that up already in their app.
For the next 20 mins - even if the phone has been put down - then if any Driver who is carrying Mexican cuisine menus comes into range of the Eater, the Eater app will start to alert them that a Driver is near them. Hopefully YOUR driver!
They then follow the previous steps from example 1 above, and you have another sale of your Chicken Taco Supreme this evening!
We also kind of like using the example of ice cream trucks when you were a kid - remember them? Remember how you heard their catchy tunes playing from way off, so you'd badger your Mom into giving you money so you could run outside and be waiting for them to arrive?
We're like that - but with a bang up to date app, for how people want on demand food delivery these days. Could be ice cream still, but could also be your Chicken Taco Supreme delivery. Or your coffee cart delivery. Or your pizza delivery. Or your... (you know what? I'm the copy writer guy Nate writing this, and I'm hungry now. BRB, just using FoodChoo myself right now for Indian food delivery...)
* You need to be verified on the FoodChoo platform, which can take up to 24 hours, and your own Drivers also need to be verified separately too with us. When we say 6 minutes, we're not lying - you can create your menu and sell in just 6 minutes after being verified. We'll show you how in our app and at our Chooniversity learning area. It's simple, we promise.
