What is Scream Truck?

Scream Truck is an on-demand, experiential ice cream truck created by Eric Murphy, a serial entrepreneur (and ice cream fanatic) with a background in entertainment, events, and technology. After experiencing one too many old school, dirty, neighborhood ice cream trucks, Eric's goal was to build a brand that prioritizes quality, customer experience, and innovation.

What is Implse?

Implse is the proprietary software platform that generates demand (an impulse buy), creates efficiency, and manages the customer experience. From executing daily reserved routes to booking private and 'pop-up' events, Implse is the most important piece of the business, and will pave the way to support other food concepts.

WHY IMPLSE WORKS

Implse is our enterprise-level, proprietary software platform that acts as the foundation of the business.

Ubiquity

We intentionally use text messaging as the primary access point for customers. Why? It's the most ubiquitous form of communication. No need to download an app! Just sign up with a phone number and start getting Scream Truck!

Impulse buying is a tried and true strategy. Think about the checkout lanes at a supermarket. Tempting, right? Every time we text a customer, they are being offered something that's hard to resist!

The Impulse Buy

Simplicity & Efficiency

A single letter reply is all it takes to reserve a stop. Ordering is simple. Trucks are equipped with a dedicated iOS app that allows for auto-optimized routes, navigation, easy customer communication, and AI customer service.

Scream Truck's holiday menu is a huge hit every year!

PREMIUM PRODUCT

The majority of neighborhood ice cream trucks are serving pre-packaged, chemical filled "frozen desserts." It's not even ice cream.

Scream Truck serves premium soft serve ice cream along with name brand favorite toppings (Oreo, Snickers, Kit Kat, Reese's, etc.), Ghirardelli sauces, artisan waffle cones from The Konery in Brooklyn, non-dairy/vegan ice cream from FoMu in Boston, all natural fresh fruit bars from The Hyppo in St. Augustine, and cookies, brownies, and specialty items from local bakeries.

Scream Truck is always searching for local bakers, "buzzy" chefs, and unique desserts to create limited edition sundaes, shakes, and cones on our menu. The idea is to always have a reason to get Scream Truck again!

Reserved Routes

This is our experiential delivery service that sustains the business year-round and creates more predictable revenue. Everyone always pre-orders and pre-pays for reserved routes.

Private Events

90% of private events are booked on-line without having to waste time going back and forth with a customer via phone or email.

Pop-Ups

Pop-ups are pre-planned, "pay-per-person" requests for offices, block parties, sporting events, festivals, and more. Occasionally, an impromptu pop-up is also worthwhile.

Corporate Events

Corporate events can be a significant revenue driver, especially for multi-truck owners. These events require more upfront coordination, but generally a higher margin.

Scream Truck has multiple revenue streams, all with significant growth potential based on franchisees being tuned into local opportunities.
