Food Tours as an Effective Client Marketing Strategy

If you get excited about client and event marketing like we do, you’re probably always looking for new ways to engage your customers, build loyalty, and further your team’s overall marketing goals. Client and executive dinners are undoubtedly effective marketing tools, but they’ve also been done.

A food tour for your business offers a fresh take on client event marketing, and it can be remarkably effective if done right. If you’re curious about what a food tour is and how they work at Triangle Food Tours, click here to learn more.

A food tour can help further your client marketing goals in a few key ways:

  • Offer dedicated time with your clientBetween Zoom meetings and phone calls, it can be difficult to really get to know your client and develop a relationship with them. A Triangle Food Tour offers 3 whole hours for you to interact with your clients, withoutdistractions. Although you may not spend those entire 3 hours talking about sales or products, you will have the opportunity to informally interact, build rapport, and deepen your client relationship. Tours can be a great a way to put business aside and share personal stories.

  • Shared experience → deeper relationships → stronger customer loyaltyTriangle Food Tours not only guarantee you dedicated time with your client, but they also offer the chance to learn, eat, and experience the unique culture of the Triangle together. Shared experience creates deeper, more meaningful relationships. And deeper, more meaningful relationships build loyalty. As you build relationships, you will see that clients take your calls, answer your emails, and have better odds of cross-sell and renewals.
