Why it works: This Tweet was sent out on a bitterly cold day, and the idea of a hot meal delivered hit home. NY Slice Truck added in their hours and a phone number, along with their daily specials. Way to use those 140 characters wisely!
Aver’s Pizza
@averspizza
Tuesday lunch pie is Lambda Gyro Pi: Zaziki, beef/lamb Gyro, Onion, Tomatoes & Feta. 11-1 North & South slices and 11-2 on East Buffet.
Why it works: Sick of pepperoni and cheese? Aver’s can fix that. The Greek-themed pizza (a tongue-in-cheek play on the Greek social system at the nearby university) transcended traditional offerings. Aver’s also let customers know that they offer slices at one unit and a buffet at another. This tweet packed in a lot!
