Anyone want to pay me $200/month for my secret hot dog cooking uber-guru methods?
 
Man, what they do in a day in a busy spot is nothing to sneeze.

I got to chatting with a cart owner at union station in toronto and he said that he averages $1,000/day profit and then has spikes on busy days.

If you need cash fast and don't care how you do it - operate a hot dog stand 24/7 and you're gold ;)
 
There's money in them there dogs. I remember seeing a news segment about a guy who managed to build up a small chain of hot dog carts and was making bank. He came from almost nothing and built up a success finding a niche and automating and replicating his profit centers (sound familiar?).

Another guy from my hometown ran a restaurant and set up shop during fairs and festivals selling the same food under the same restaurant name. Then he did the math, and realized he made as much money off of the fair/festival food as he did on his standalone shop, only with 1/4th the work. So he closed the restaurant and just did fairs.

Another guy is worth about 8 mil from selling used tires and another 1.5 mil from a junkyard.

Sadly, there's also money selling "hope in a box" in so many niches, especially when the perceived barriers to entry are low (real estate, affiliate marketing). It doesn't happen without the right niche for a person, a lot of hard work and a little luck. No seminar can make it happen.

I heard they have a lottery system in place for hot dog vendors in Toronto, which makes it extremely difficult for new entrants to claim a good spot. I do, however, know a guy who has automated this business locally and is averaging over $200,000 profit per annum from several 'locations'. He claims to break-even with each new location within four months at worst.
 
thats funny. there's a guy in my office building that sells "how to start a used car lot" training for $800+ consulting fees and is making serious bank.
 
Food vending is one of those businesses where a lot of idiot politicians who know nothing about working or owning an actual business can put you out of biz on some whim.

As mentioned with lotteries ( and things similar to medallions in the cab business) there is a lot of rent seeking and bullshit going on.

Depending on where you are and what type of biz- any of the small food vendor businesses can be put out by a competitor with political connections or a town council that decides your hotdog system is not safe enough, your food is not healthy enough, Starbucks paid them to rewrite the zoning, one day they decide to require all food vendors to have both a culinary degree and MBA,etc.

There are a lot of businesses where you can make big bucks once you are in, but the hard part is getting in. Getting in usually = doing it before anyone else and paying off people or being born into a certain business.

I stick with jerking off on the internet ( official job title) and dont use PPC either.
