First day out with our Hot Dog Cart

Our first day out with our hot dog cart was a success! Much to learn still, but pretty soon it will be a peace of cake. #smallbusiness #foodvendor #blackownedbusiness #softopen #hotdogcart #subscribe #like #follow #lemonade

[@randytrant]

Your setup looks great.... Keep at it.... Try not to float to many dogs , to keep wast down , customers will wait a little for a great dog, as you go along you will be able to judge how many.... The best of luck.... I'm 75 and thinking of opening another cart to stay busy.... I miss talking to all the customers , customers are the best part of vending.... You'll see...

That's so awesome! I have the same goal, also in Nor Cal. Just getting all the paperwork done now. You have a killer little Trailer. New or Used? Just seeing your 1st Day vid is so encouraging! So Happy for you guys, I know you worked really hard to get to that 1st day! All the best wishes and good thoughts your way! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Kool45llc]

Thank you and we appreciate your kind words! We sold our Popup trailer and bought our hot dog cart. We converted the trailer, which someone else was using as a BBQ trailer previously. We miss our little project, but we will be in another trailer in the near future! Good luck with your journey! And thanks for watching 😊

[@Kool45llc]

Bought our hot dog cart brand new from someone off of FB Marketplace.

[@lukewarmwater2235]

Respect, here's to years of success. I started with the same type of cart, now I'm in a food trailer. Tons of hard work but it definitely pays off.

[@Kool45llc]

That’s our goal is a food trailer. We are getting older now and the wear and tear on your body starts to catch up to you. Thanks for commenting and giving us a confirmation to keep going!

Looks great prices are reasonable I hope yall get blessed 💯

[@Kool45llc]

Thank you 🙏🏾

[@bigshowradio_550]

I imagine the first setup is perplexing. It's ok. It means you want it right. I'll begin in a couple months here in Missouri with a converted small transit bus. Shaved ice, fresh lemonade, dogs, and nachos for now. I have a buddy with multiple food trucks. His advice to me was... it you want it, you'll make it. Pretty sure he's right. Good luck.

[@Kool45llc]

Thank you! And good luck to you as well!

[@courtneyjohnson782]

I would definitely give it a try if I was in your area.

[@sophiemao8245]

yes! What other flavored hot dogs will be on the menu? Will definitely stop by!

[@Kool45llc]

We are still working on our menu. We currently sell hot dogs, hot links, bacon wrapped hot dogs and links, and We also sell shaved ice and lemonade. We are looking to add some more hot dog creations to our menu as we get out there a little more. Thanks for watching!

Congratulations guys! And, of course, mistakes are gonna happen. We learn as we go. You will succeed and grow bigger watch! Where are you guys from? Oh and how did you guys get that spot in the parking lot? I’ve been wanting to try that.

[@Kool45llc]

Thanks so much!

[@Kool45llc]

We are located in Stockton, CA. Here in Stockton you can pretty much setup wherever as long as you are permitted. In big shopping areas like that, most parking lots are not owned by any one stores, so you can setup anywhere as long as it’s not disturbing the other businesses. There is another big taco truck in this same parking lot. We recently secured a permanent spot at a small mom and pop store that gets steady traffic all day and is also near the hospital and other doctors offices.

[@RunningGriffin]

Just moved from Stockton, looks like a sick setup tho.

[@Kool45llc]

Thank you!

[@mr.entrepreneur1789]

Good luck with the business. I'm looking into getting a cart in a few months. In Long Beach California, Any tips

[@Kool45llc]

Research, Research, Research. Contact your local county health department and ask them what they require on your cart. That way you don’t waste your time or money. Take your time, and spend wisely. We will do more videos discussing this soon.

[@LevelupDaily6085]

Please do a video discussing it soon ! I want to know how to do it properly and need help to set up here in the 209.

[@oldfarmshow]

👍

[@Adnaloy411]

Your HOTDOG stand looks great! To promote sales you can put up a sign that says, HAPPY HOURS BETWEEN 3 AND 4PM. PRICES WON'T LAST LONG. BUY one, get the second HOTDOG half off. IF SALES DON'T DO WELL CHANGE YOUR LOCATION. I am sure they will sell at a county fair, church, park or college campus. April 22, 2024 MONDAY

Looks good! You'll go through a lot of changes. Every time you go out, youll try to find some way to reduce the amount of stuff you have to carry, minimize the amount of prep work, etc... Its an ever-evolving game. The more you go out, the better and more efficient youll get. Just Keep It Simple! Good luck!

You are so right about that! We are always going back to the drawing board and figuring out new ways to be more efficient. Thanks for the encouragement 😊🙏🏾

​@@Kool45llcI only suggested because I can see your set up is much better and cleaner than any street vendor I've seen in L.A. but yeah I spent some time in the Bay area Berkeley Oakland and most of y'all up north have no desire to live down in LA and usually pity us, but no offense taken I totally understand why.
