Summary
Mobile vending is one of the easiest, least risky, and least expensive home based businesses to start up. And it’s fun! It is quite different, however, from other conventional businesses. Festival vendors and food truck operators need specialized techniques to succeed. There are hurtles you may not have anticipated that can kill your new enterprise before you finish one season.
With over a decade in the business, Jarvis met and learned from hundreds of traveling concessionaires. Many of them said they wished they’d had a guide when they started their home-based businesses. That's why this book was written - to help others avoid costly goofs many new vendors make. The techniques in this audiobook will smoothly propel you to a successful food truck or merchandise vending operation.
Whether you're just in the thinking-about-it stage or already have a booth up and running, you'll find loads of info to make your small business thrive. It's all covered: designing a stand, dealing with government agencies, finding events, choosing products to sell, how to draw customers, and how to keep records. Both merchandise and food vending are covered in detail.
What this audiobook does not cover is finance. There are already hundreds of books about SBA loans, writing business plans, and setting up business structures, such as LLCs. This audiobook is specific to the fair and festival vending industry, and it's packed with useful tips.
Mix your entrepreneurial spirit with the strategies in this audiobook, and you're on your way to a nice income through a vending venture. And you'll discover the satisfaction of running your own enterprise.
