Captions that get replies for catering services
Every caption should make the enquiry easier and the shortlist shorter. State the per-head figure, what is included, and how fast you reply. Caterers usually post a food photo with a phone number and nothing else, so the family messages four pages and picks whoever answers first.

Using these captions
How do I use these captions?
Every caption should make the enquiry easier and the shortlist shorter. State the per-head figure, what is included, and how fast you reply. Caterers usually post a food photo with a phone number and nothing else, so the family messages four pages and picks whoever answers first.
Should I use them word for word?
Use the shape, change the words. These are written for catering services generally; the version that works is the one with your own price, your own area and your own customer's actual question in it.
Do these work in Urdu?
Several have a Roman Urdu version below, and in the twin cities that version usually performs better on TikTok and Facebook. On LinkedIn, stay in English.
