AI SMS automation · for mobile bars, pop-ups & mobile services
Your business moves.
Your customers should follow.
VendorLoop’s AI texts your followers before every pop-up, public event, and open booking window — automatically. The people who loved you at the last event find out about the next one.
Start texting the same day — no waiting on carrier approval
It happens at every event. Great drinks, great service, “where do we find you next?” — and then most of those people never see you again. The next pop-up got announced in an Instagram story that disappeared in 24 hours. The festival was two towns over. Your open Saturday slots went to whoever happened to DM first.
VendorLoop is built for that exact problem. It gives you a direct line to the customers who already love what you do — without relying on the algorithm to reach them.
The one-tap move
Different event every weekend? Text them all at once.
Most mobile businesses rotate — a wedding Saturday, a public pop-up Sunday, a festival next month, open booking slots in between. Your followers want to catch you; they just can’t keep your calendar straight.
Tap once and text your whole list the lineup — every public date, place, and time, plus “we have two Saturdays open in August” when the calendar has gaps. Your schedule lives in their phone, not buried in a story from four days ago.
Connect Google Calendar
Your bookings already live in a calendar. Let it text for you.
Connect it once and the season runs itself — every public event you add imports automatically, AI writes the announcement, and it goes out to your followers the day before. You never retype the schedule.
Connect in two clicks
Link Google Calendar once. Add a festival, a market, or a public pop-up there and it shows up in VendorLoop on its own — re-syncing through the day so changes keep up.
AI writes each text
Every imported event gets a ready-to-send announcement with the place, the city, and the time — drafted automatically. No blank screen.
Day before, hands-free
Turn on auto-text once and the announcement sends itself the day before each public date. Set it and forget it.
How it works
The crowd at this event becomes the crowd at the next one.
1 · They scan at your setup
A QR code on the bar top, the trailer window, or your booth table. Guests scan, tap, and they're following you — no app, under 10 seconds.
2 · Your list grows itself
Every event adds the people who already sought you out — the highest-intent list a mobile business can build. It compounds season over season.
3 · AI announces every date
Public pop-ups, festival appearances, open booking windows — written and sent automatically. 98% of texts get read within minutes.

Does VendorLoop work for mobile bars, pop-ups, and mobile service businesses?+
Yes. If any part of your business shows up in public — pop-ups, festivals, markets, taproom takeovers — VendorLoop announces every date to your followers automatically, and a QR code at your setup turns tonight's guests into next event's crowd. Booking-based operators (mobile bars, detailers, groomers) also use it to blast open slots: one text like 'two Saturdays open in August' fills gaps faster than waiting on DMs.
Is VendorLoop free?+
Yes — VendorLoop has a free tier that includes unlimited QR code signups, your subscriber list, and your event schedule, with no card required. Texting is the paid part: when you're ready, pick a plan and start texting the same day — no waiting on carrier approval. Starter is $29/month for 1,000 messages, Growth is $59/month for 2,500, and Pro is $99/month for 5,000. No free trial because the free tier is the trial — use it as long as you need before picking a plan to text.
How do customers join my list?+
Two ways. (1) They scan a QR code at your booth, truck window, or counter — no app, no typing, opt-in in under 10 seconds. (2) They text your keyword (like JOIN or HONEY) to your dedicated number, which works anywhere — IG bio, business cards, even printed on your napkins.
What's a toll-free number and why do I need one?+
It's a dedicated phone number (starting 8XX) that's used only for your business's texts. Phone carriers require it so customers can opt out cleanly and you don't get filtered as spam. We file the carrier paperwork for you in the background — and you don't wait on it: from day one your texts go out through VendorLoop's verified number with your business name leading every message, then switch to your own dedicated number automatically once carriers approve it (usually a few days).
How is VendorLoop different from SlickText or other SMS tools?+
Generic SMS tools charge $29/month for around 500 messages and don't know what an event is. VendorLoop is purpose-built for mobile vendors: it tracks your upcoming markets, fires reminder texts automatically when each event approaches, and gives every customer a public 'where are they next' page. Same starting price ($29) for double the messages (1,000) and the workflow shaped around how food trucks and craft vendors actually operate.
How long does setup take?+
Five minutes to register, print your QR code, and add your first event. You can collect subscribers same-day — and text them same-day too: pick a plan and you're sending right away through VendorLoop's verified number, no waiting on carrier approval. We register your own dedicated number in the background, and your texts switch to it automatically once carriers approve it (usually a few days).
