  • Good Job man! I'm working hard in Seattle while slowly building our Beach Resort Hotel in the Philippines. We open next year! Dreams come true!

    Thank you so much for posting this video. I'm opening up my own food trailer with branding and all of the marketing tools that you're using basically the same exact operation. It was the real talk that I needed to hear. You got me feeling optimistic! We open in a few weeks. Sissy's Steak Sandwiches baby! 😂❤
  • I've been buying equipment for over a year and bought a 2002 Ford transit bus (small one). Going through the pre-build jitters. My worry is since I haven't done a food truck before, I'm not sure where the equipment needs to be placed etc. I'll be doing mostly a one man operation but will have help if needed. Like you, I haven't financed anything. Having no debt is the biggest stress relief. I made a list and bought something every month or two. Still have a couple items to go. Your trailer looks nice!
  • Hey man congrats on your Buisness. Living my dream. I’m 28 year old man. Looking to start a high quality quesadilla and Spanish rice trailer. Keep it simple and delicious. I live in Glen Allen Va. My county requires a prep kitchen I’m stuck on what to do with that. Will it cut into my profit too much? Your video is the first I’ve heard of that you can get approved to cook your food on the trailer aslong as you don’t have many ingredients. I’m thinking of doing just chicken and beef quesadillas with different peppers and cheese. With Spanish rice on the side. Any tips? I don’t have a lot of money saved up at the moment and would take me awhile to save up 20-40k to get started. I have great credit though and could finance it pretty comfortably. I already own a truck to tow it with. Thanks a bunch! I don’t plan to have any employees and run it myself.
  • you really need to check out and interview with Freddy Franks awesome food and fantastic people in grand Rapids area

    We’ve been talking about starting a trailer and later to a truck, if the numbers can justify upgrading. We have some killer recipes for simple foods with quick preparation. We have tried them out at parties and church open houses, etc, and all have been so well received. Now, the research of the raw numbers, I have obtained over the past 2 years. The pros who have been all out full time, without employees, and just family help, all come down to the same bottom line number over and over again. That number, after all expenses covered, boils down to 8% net profit. Gross annual sales of $100,000 equates to $8,000 net income. That is more than three times below poverty level. I can’t figure out why anyone would want to do it; and moreover, how anyone can possibly say they are doing well. With that said, I also wonder if the 8% net profit they agree over, is sort of an agreed number to keep the IRS away. Such like if everyone is only reporting that, then it doesn’t draw any attention, or fly under the radar. Any true knowledgable incite differing from that please comment.
  • How much is profit and it's a lot more than hot dogs u have to sell
  • @Pasakoye
    Oh. I thought it was hot "dog food" business like some advanced gimmick near a dog park.
  • @ytho7618
    How much does a food trailer similar to that weigh?
  • @sopascat7
    … How much does the IRS get of this income during Tax Season?
  • @neilburgess8751
    Your old truck was no good anymore? Pretty much anything can be fixed.

    He's poisoning his customers. Wherever 517 area code is.
  • @yougotit7144
    Did he say he saved to buy his equipment? I don't believe it!
  • @Saki630
    I dont even watch these videos, they are all cookie cutter copy+paste guru clickbait scams. No way you are going to say this hot dog guy will make 20K a month and the other hotdog video is $5k a month. Is he selling $20 hot dogs? Or the cringe thumb and title for 16year old kid starting a $220k pressure washing business doing 8 2500sqft homes a week with no days off every day.
