BRIZZY's GLIZZYS
I once had an idea that I'd like to run a hot dog cart and I told a bunch of people about it.
One of them is my Brother-In-Law, Brian, who confided that that was also his dream.
And in fact, his dream was much clearer than mine was.
He grew up in a Beach Town.
He lives in that same Beach Town.
He delivers Mail today.
He could deliver Hot Dogs tomorrow.
But he got sick, and now he has the big "C" - but he's still out there slinging LLBean Catalogs around.
I wish I could help him sling tube steaks instead, helping him fulfill his dream.
So for now, Brizzy's Glizzy's will be a WeMailCoconuts Endeavor, until such a time as Brian retires and can comfortably take over the burgeoning empire.
There are about 20 miles of Shared Use trails (Paved former Railroad Tracks mostly) in Northampton alone.
Northampton is also the home of 5 colleges. It is an Outdoor friendly community, with a focus on the environment and local crafts and foods.
My idea is to buy an ELECTRIC BIKE HOTDOG CART and sell locally manufactured hot dogs in local buns.
I can purchase one of those Bendy wavy Feather Flags to hang off the bike to promote my wares.
I can attend festivals and Indoor events in the Winter.
Here is a $9,500 Bicycle ready to serve this purpose:
The T-REKS Hot Dog Bike - (bikeandabox.com)
Napkin Math - Sell Hot Dog for $5. Subtract from that sales tax (.40) $4.40, weiner (1.00) $3.40, bun (.50) $2.90, supplies (.25) $2.65.
$2.65 x WHAT = Lots of Money
WHAT = 100 hotdogs/day = $265
How many Hotdogs is a lot to sell? What is the flowthrough rate for people to weiners, and did I use the word flowthrough rate correctly? I doubt it...I may have even just made that up, but the idea is - How many dogs do I have to vend to justify a $10,000 business startup investment?
Realistically how many could I sell on in January vs August / Rainy vs Sunny / what events are out there?
