    This is super helpful! My boyfriend and I just purchased a coffee trailer and we are about to start submitting our plans to the health department. Love that you are vlogging your journey! It is a lot to handle and keep organized!

    Okay so I had an idea to start a mobile coffee biz and was looking into small carts and all and then came across your vid, I went on instagram and I have to say I want to do the same thing here in LA. But for a different scene and I’m confused, I have about 1k to start and don’t know how. I’m frustrated. I think you making a video dedicated to what you need to put in the binder and how to even start from scratch, making a logo and where to go to get your name branded or TM would be super helpful.

      Hey Johnny, if it helps I have a blog post on how to start a coffee truck with different budgets. If the authors don't mind posting, here it is: www.greenjoecoffeetruck.com/blogs/news/how-to-start-a-mobile-coffee-truck-with-different-start-up-budgets

    TAYLOR!! It's God's grace that I stumbled upon your page and see your journey -- three years ago I was inspired to start my own coffee business as well! I think I would like to start off as a coffee truck. I havent done anything yet besides think of the brand and pray for it.
    What is the most important thing I need to do NOW...?
    I wanted to learn more about business by reading books and taking online courses. I have zero experience on the business ends of things but I have experience as a barista. It's all kind of intimidating.. 😖

    Thank you for sharing all the info. I have always wanted to start a mobile coffee business. I got married this year so it was put on the back-burner. Time to get back on the wagon to creating. Good luck to you and your hard work. May it be all that you imagined it to be.

    Hi I’m a new subscriber actually also happen to be a fellow PNW coffee entrepreneur! I’m in Rainier, not Washington but Oregon!! I wanted to reach out and tell you how awesome it is that you are so young and have this business. I’ve had mine 8 years and as you know there are some days that I wonder why I’m doing it. If you’re getting a paycheck and it has overhead then you must be doing well. If I ever happen to be that way or you this way you should stop in I know I will if I’m in your area! Anyways congrats on your shop it’s beautiful ❤️

    @Carina5707 6 лет назад +2

    Not exactly sure how I got here lol but I found this really interesting. I watch a lot of youtubers and I find the BTS stuff intriguing simply because most people don't talk about it. It's very admin and not exactly "entertainment", but it's what people DO, and most people don't talk about it because they think people won't be interested. Like when big youtubers go on tour, or write books or whatever, they rarely talk about the bts stuff, but you can't imagine all the meetings and paperwork and vaccinations and visas and all of what goes into business dealings. I'm a chef, and people often ask me, "oh so you want to own your own restaurant someday?" and I'm like, "HAHAHAHA no." Admin stuff is NOT my forte. It becomes your life. I just like being the hands. Just give me a list of projects to do and I'll do it. Let other people be the brains and worry and handle paperwork and meetings. Props to you though. Power to you.
    Cheers.

    I’m not currently opening my own business, but it’s a dream and goal of mine to open my own coffee trailer one day (that’s actually how I found you!!). I’m from Everett/Spokane but am currently in D.C. due to my husband’s military orders. We’re moving back to WA to the Bremerton/port orchard area and I’m so beyond excited!!
    Long story short, your videos and Instagram really help me get an idea of what I want in a future business, and I just love your personality and think you’re an awesome lady. I hope when I’m home I can venture down to Olympia and visit your stand when it’s open!! ❤️

I appreciate your hard work keep it going.
