Essential for our family
My brother is unquestionably a foodie. He's been talking about quitting his work and starting his own business for a while now. I had no idea what he was talking about when he said "food truck business." He persuaded me to consider becoming his partner in some way. I bought this book to learn more about the procedure. I'd be in charge of a lot of the behind-the-scenes labor, rather than actually producing the food or driving the truck. This book covers everything from the beginning to the end. It includes information on where to acquire a truck, start-up fees, financing, marketing, food, permits, licenses, locations, staff, and wages, among other things. Food truck businesses are popular, so you'll need to establish your niche and put in the effort to succeed. You'll also learn how to leverage social media to benefit your business. This book will be really beneficial to us.
