Sell This Text Trick That Boosted Revenue by $15K a Month

📝 Matthew Pipis owns Hey Juan Burritos, a 12-seat burrito shop in Arcata, California.

He writes that monthly sales went from $35K in November 2025 to $50K+ after he started texting customers a ladder of coupons 👇

• $5 off for joining his text list
• Redeem that and the next text is a free lemonade
• Redeem that and a friend eats free
• Then 20% off a $50+ order to “bring the fam or crew”

Each coupon only works for 7 days, and over half his customers make it to the last two steps.

The list grew from 150 to 2K subscribers, and the texts cost Matthew about $100 a month 🤯

The catch…

every week I just look at the opt in report and use that list to manually make a group. It’s not easy and I know I can make a flow with more sophisticated tech but I’m not there yet

Another commenter couldn’t find a way to target coupon redeemers in Square at all.

That’s a service you could sell 👀

Pitch a done-for-you coupon ladder to local cafes, pizza places and barbers already using Square.

Design the four offers, set up the sign-up at the counter (with explicit opt-in, since US texting rules are strict), and send each customer their next coupon every week.
