Turn your neighborhood gems and curated bites into a passive revenue stream

If you’re a food influencer, chances are you’ve already done the work: uncovering the hidden ramen shop, tasting every taco in town, or crafting the perfect weekend food crawl. You’ve built trust with your audience—they want your recommendations and are constantly asking, “Where should I eat when I visit?”

Now, there’s a way for food influencers to monetize their content by turning those highly sought-after tips into  GPS-guided, self-paced food tours built using Sulu.

How Food Influencers Are Monetizing Their Favorite Eats With GPS-Guided Tours

Build a Tour Once, Get Paid Forever

Sulu is a platform that allows you to create self-guided food tours that anyone can buy and experience using just their phone. As they walk, bike, or drive through your route, GPS triggers play your custom audio narration—offering history, context, personal notes, and your signature recommendations.

Best of all: you don’t have to be there. Once your tour is set up, Sulu takes care of the rest. Every time someone downloads your tour, you get paid.

How Food Creators Can Create Custom GPS Guided Tours

1. Map Out Your Perfect Food Route

Start with a local food crawl you love—like “Best Hidden Dumplings in Chinatown” or “Downtown Date Night Bites.”

2. Write Your Story

With Sulu's easy to use CMS, you can add your personal flavor for each tour stop. Let tourists know why each spot matters, what they should order and how to enjoy it. Share personal stories, local history, or ordering hacks.

3. Let Sulu Handle the Tech

Your script is turned into professional AI voice narration in multiple languages. As customers move through the tour, GPS technology will trigger your narration at each stop.

4. Share With Your Audience

Share the tour on Instagram, TikTok, or your blog. Fans buy your tour, download the app, and take the journey on their own time.

You get paid for every download—automatically. No scheduling, no hosting, no extra work.
