## Research questions

### Does submitting a food-truck event request mean a secured catering booking?

Roaming Hunger's cached FAQ (current terms unverified) describes an event request that invites truck responses, while a date is booked once the deposit is paid and the agreement signed. Separate lead submissions from secured bookings when evaluating event campaigns; a courtesy hold is not the same commitment.

### Who is the paying customer in a public versus private truck event?

Roaming Hunger's cached FAQ (current terms unverified) distinguishes public events where attendees pay from private catering paid by the host. Specify which sales model the campaign promotes: many individual meal purchases and one host-funded event are different order and customer units.

### Does a truck's guaranteed minimum add revenue on top of all meal sales?

Roaming Hunger's cached FAQ (current terms unverified) describes an organizer covering the shortfall when public-event sales miss a guaranteed minimum. Compare actual sales and the applicable top-up separately. Treating the full guarantee as an additional payment above all sales would misread that minimum arrangement.

### Can a private-event quote be treated as the final food-truck order value?

Roaming Hunger's cached FAQ (current terms unverified) ties pricing to factors including menu, headcount, travel and service time, and says additional meals can require payment on the event day. Review the contracted scope and later additions before comparing the quoted event amount with the final paid basket.
