🌟 Your Social Media Can Also Fill Your Table
If you’re already a host on Homlunch (or thinking about becoming one), it’s not just about cooking well: you also need people to know you exist.
That’s where your best allies come in: Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and WhatsApp.
Using social media to promote your Homlunch profile doesn’t mean becoming an influencer. It means simply showing what you already do every day in your kitchen.
🎯 Step 1: Define What You Want to Achieve with Your Social Media
Before posting your first photo or video, ask yourself:
-
Do I want more people to discover my Homlunch profile?
-
Do I want neighbors or people nearby to book with me?
-
Do I want to show my food to build trust?
You don’t have to pick just one, but having a clear goal will help you:
-
Decide what kind of content to post.
-
Know who you’re talking to (friends, neighbors, tourists, etc.).
-
Understand how to invite people to visit your Homlunch profile.
📸 Step 2: Show Your Food in an Appetizing Way (Without Being a Photographer)
You don’t need a professional camera. With your phone you can do a lot if you pay attention to a few details: Learn more about how to take irresistible photos for your Homlunch host profile
Tips for Your Photos
-
Use natural light (near a window).
-
Avoid very busy backgrounds: let the dish be the star.
-
Take close-up shots so you can see textures, colors, steam, and details.
-
Show the dish as it will actually look when served to the diner.
Simple Content Ideas
-
Photo of your dish of the day or your star recipe.
-
Before and after: ingredients on the table → finished dish.
-
A short video of you serving the plate.
-
A “zoom in” on details: sauces, tortillas, sides.
We’re not looking for perfection, we’re looking for authenticity.
🧑🍳 Step 3: Present Yourself as a Host, Not Just “the Person Who Cooks”
People don’t only care about the food, they care about who is behind the plate.
You can share:
-
A photo of you in the kitchen.
-
A short text like:
“Hi, I’m Ana. I’ve been cooking homemade food for years and now I open my home to welcome diners through Homlunch.”
-
A short video saying hello, smiling, and showing your dining area.
This creates trust and warmth, which is key for someone to feel comfortable booking with you.
🔗 Step 4: Share Your Homlunch Profile on All Your Social Media
Whenever you post something related to your cooking, include a clear invitation:
-
“If you’d like to try this dish, you can book through my Homlunch profile.”
-
“You can see dates and times available on my Homlunch profile.”
Whenever possible:
-
Share your Homlunch profile link in your Instagram bio, Facebook description, or directly via WhatsApp.
-
Ask your friends and family to share your posts.
That way, anyone who sees your content also knows where to book, not just where to see your food.
📲 Step 5: Use Each Social Network Well (Without Overcomplicating It)
You don’t have to be on every platform, but here are some ideas for the most common ones:
-
Post photos of your dishes and your table.
-
Use Stories to show “behind the scenes”: how you prep, how you serve, how the table looks when everything is ready, you can also see how to attract foreign tourists with Homlunch
-
In your bio, you can write:
“Homlunch host · Homemade food · Book here 👉 [link]”
-
Share photos and slightly longer texts telling the story behind a dish or your kitchen.
-
Post in local neighborhood or community groups (if allowed by their rules):
“I’m a Homlunch host in the area. I cook homemade food and you can book through this link.”
-
Share your Homlunch profile link with friends, family, and neighbors.
-
Create a status with a photo of your dish and the text: “Book your spot at my table via Homlunch.”
TikTok (If You Feel Like It)
-
Short videos preparing a dish.
-
Transitions: ingredients → plated dish → table ready.
-
Voice-over telling a fun detail about the recipe or a bit of your story.
💬 Step 6: Use Descriptions That Make People Fall in Love
Don’t just write: “Homemade food.”
You can try phrases like:
-
“Homemade food that feels like a Sunday family lunch, even on weekdays.”
-
“Comfort food with fresh tortillas, served at your Homlunch host’s home.”
-
“If you love food that feels like home, I’ll take care of the table and the flavor.”
And whenever you can, add:
“Book your experience through my Homlunch profile.”
⭐ Step 7: Share Your Diners’ Reviews and Experiences
If someone leaves you a nice review on Homlunch or tells you something kind at the end of the meal, you can (with their permission) turn it into content:
-
Post a screenshot of a positive review.
-
Upload a photo of the table (without showing faces if they don’t want to) and write:
“Thank you for coming to eat at my home. If you’d also like to live this experience, you can book on Homlunch.”
That helps others think:
“If other people already went and liked it, I might try it too.”
