Thank you!!! Great suggestion 👌👍

wow!

Ayo where is the sauce? Don’t say 16 dollar lobster rolls and leave.

I think thats called conflict of interest

@@BboyRacing lol what? This makes zero sense. He's literally sourcing lobster and selling it to people. Where exactly is the conflict of interest

then the video falls apart lol

not alot enough to survive for sure though.

My first year I grossed 100k at 65% profit. Expenses depend on the gig. Different gigs require different payroll. At the end of the year I walked away with 65k. I worked 30 hours a week...on average. Hope that helps. P.S. coffee trucks are better thab food trucks :)

Green Joe Coffee Truck thanks’

Green Joe Coffee Truck I’m thinking about starting my own taco truck. I’m barely 18 but I really want to have my own business however my parents don’t want me to 👎🏾

Cajun truck owner don’t want no more competition

@Old Man hendo i think that sometimes that is true. but other times i think people know just how hard it was to get where they are and know most people dont want to deal with what they have dealt with. i own a barbershop and when up and coming barbers question me about business it is definitely hard to give straight answers because its so double edged. you love it but it is very very hard to start a business and run it till it is consistently profitable.

@Old Man hendoriiiigghhhtt. People have such simple minds. Hes just speaking facts

@Old Man hendo oh you feel that way. Must be true

i dont think bitter is the right word, do be attentive in how one name-calls someone

$8,000 is a lot on a food truck

Exactly. Food cost, labor, gas, overhead.

$3300 for storage. You are getting robbed.

You call your employer "captain"? xD

@Justin Mason I think he was referring to food waste, equipment repairs as well as storage

Nik Murphy it’s normal food truck owners are always called captain

They also should asked "What are earnings on AVERAGE". A stable steady estimate $ amount.

25 to 33% is the usual cost of food, labor and liabilities combined. That being said, you havent invested and how much did earned from what you haven't?

Beats working a 9to 5 tho

Vanilla Theis Do you think it’ll make you you more money later on? Or are you planning to do something else?

@@capcap7456 So I own the truck with my dad and my brother. As of right now I'm the only one who is doing it full time, which is tough because I used to make more money working construction, and I could go back to that anytime I want. We haven't been in business for a full year yet either though, so I want to give 2019 a full go to see if we can find a location that works for us. I personally enjoy it. It is a lot of work, and it can be tough, but it is a cool job, and you are working for yourself. We work at breweries a lot. Where else do you get to work and drink at the sometime lol. As far as the money goes though, my goal for the year is to have the truck working 6-7 days a week and bring in over $100,000 in sales. If we can do that then imo its gunna be worth it. If not then I'll prob go back to working construction and do it as a side hustle on the weekends. Festivals and parties pay really well, compared to the daily work site/brewery jobs, because its guaranteed money, and you can factor expenses into the cost.

@@capcap7456 Are you thinking about starting a food truck?

Vanilla Theis yes I’m 18 right now so I’m saving up to buy a food truck with my co worker at McDonald’s. Im planning to get a degree too but I want to own a business of my own. I’m willing to work hard for it and my coworker has excellent cooking skills for Mexican food and so do I do we’re planning on having a Mexican food truck.

@@capcap7456 That sounds awesome! I encourage you to do it. And the fact that you have a friend who is committed and doing it with you will definitely help. Don't listen to the guys who say the market is over saturated. We were getting offers to work events the 1st month we opened. There is a learning curve though, so you've gotta be ready to have some bad days. But you guys will iron out all the kinks within the first year. Stay positive and work hard and you can make a career out of it. When you take servsafe, you should ask your instructor a lot of questions and take down their e-mail. Health Inspections and Permitting can be tricky, and there is really no handbook to tell you what you need to pass in inspection. It is a town by town thing. The servsafe instructor should have a lot of knowledge about the local inspections and help you prepare.

Ofc

good point.

Never pay a flat rate for a spot. If there’s a fee, it should be a percentage of sales during the time of the event. That way you protect yourself from getting swindled. The better you do, the better they do.

brown wolf how long have they been at it?

@@moesmith1307 probably like between 10 years still running

How long does she work a day ?

@@michaelmurdock7331 when you're the boss 24/7. The food game is definitely a huge commitment.

You don't need luck or faith in god for a food truck. You need to plan, prep and work your ass off. Start with local markets on the weekend until you save enough for a trailer or truck. Then move up. One step at a time. ~

Totally - work from the bottom. There is NO quick money to be made in most businesses, including food trucks. Rubbish like this is infuriating.

LMAO GOD will FUCK YOU every time. "Money will come" You must be serving up FAILURE on your food truck. Some truck is bleeding $$$ like no tomorrow but the person keeps going because "GOD". They lose everything and kill themselves Thanks Kim for fucking up someone's life haha.

Kim, youre betting on a wrong horse there.

dude , your idea has risen my horizons thanks for your inspirations , best wishes man

good luck. im just outside houston. i hope to get mine going in the next five yrs.

good luck to you too.

You're going to have a interesting time with food waste. Also, school mechanics are hard to find. Make sure you locate one before purchasing. Auctions are the best to find busses. Look into city, federal, school auctions. Talk to a mechanic about what years are good years first.

Check out my youtube I might have what you are looking for.

rsmugs amazing

What is the cost of building food truck including equipments please guide me

This and all these "business" videos tend to use gross which is misleading. Net profit is probably going to average 10% on a good food truck. Average will be less. The top trucks might do 15% net profit.

L.A RAMS4EVER there are a ton of taco trucks in california, but because of the high popularity, I would say most of the taco trucks I know are successful. I plan on opening one next year.

did u end up opening one ????

$100-3000

Depends on equipment Sean. Depends if you build it. I feel comfortable that I could build a truck for less than 30k. How much would you rent it for? $200 a day? It's going to be a long time before you see your 30k again...

Green Joe Coffee Truck

lies....

Still more than my job pays...😏

S you took home $0 dollars and you don't pay maintenance fees everyday stop misleading people.

You cant do that if they are hungry infront of that fucking food trucks
