TapLocal App℠
Case Type: Mobile Catering

Fed the whole party.
Hot, and on time.

Catering reviews are written by the host, the day after the event, and they come down to food that arrived on time, tasted great and fed everyone. TapLocal App℠ sets up a service-area Google profile for the area you actually cater, gets an NFC + QR Google review card to the host, and hands you a report on what clients already say.

No gating. No incentives. No guarantees. Ever.

Exhibit A — the card, with the final invoice
// Why catering is a special case

One host, a hundred guests

The host writes the review

Guests enjoy the food, but the person who booked you is the one who reviews. That's who should get the card.

Timing and quantity matter most

Arriving on schedule and having enough for everyone come up in review after review.

Guests become future clients

Guests who loved the food ask who catered. A card on the serving table answers that, and lets them look you up later.

Hidden address, one service area

Google chooses how you verify; for a business like this it's usually a short video, not a mailed postcard.

// Process

Four steps, no theatrics

Already have a service-area Google profile claimed? Start at Install.

Set Up

We build your service-area profile, hide your base address, define where you actually work, and walk you through Google's verification (usually a short video).

Install

A branded NFC + QR card handed to the host at cleanup or included with the final invoice, a small sign on the serving table so guests know who catered, or a link in your thank-you email. Tap or scan, straight to your Google review page.

Collect

Customers leave reviews the normal way, at their own pace — one tap and two clicks. No scripted asks, and no discounts, freebies or rewards for reviews — of any rating.

Learn

You get a TapLocal Intelligence Report™, built only from your own public reviews — what's working, what to fix first.

// Mobile Catering questions

Mobile Caterers: questions, answered plainly

Who should get the card, the host or the guests?
The host first: they booked you and they're the one most likely to review. A small sign on the serving table helps guests find you later, without asking anyone for a review.
When is the best time to ask the host?
Right after the event or the next day, while it's fresh. A card at cleanup and a link in your thank-you email cover both.
Can corporate clients review us?
Yes. Whoever arranged the order can review your business on Google; the card and email link work the same way.
How does verification work for a mobile caterer?
As a service-area business, your base address stays hidden. Google chooses how you verify; for a business like yours it's usually a short video of your kitchen, vehicle or equipment.
Will the report show which dishes people mention?
Yes. If reviews keep mentioning certain dishes, portions or service staff, the report shows those patterns.
Is there anything we should avoid asking customers?
Yes: never ask for a specific star rating or wording, never offer anything in return for a review, and never ask only the customers you think are happy. The card simply makes it easy for everyone to leave an honest review.
