Hey guys, this is going be a long read..
Where do i start?😅
Running a successful, very busy food truck is honestly stressful.
4 years of blood sweat and tears… literally..
Nobody talks about everything thats behind the scenes with running a food truck.
Whether it’s ;
Permits for EVERY city / townships you set up at,
Food license & inspections,
Insurance hikes,
Taxes,
Equipment failing, equipment breaking on the road to an event,
Rising food costs,
Paying off loans timely,
Booking events,
Event coordinators not having an accurate count of their guests, or just straight up lying about the expected number of people (we’ve been hit super hard with this, this year),
Finding consistent good employees,
The truck that pulls the trailer.
This list could quite literally go on and on.
I’ll be honest with all of you, this past year was our worst year in public sales on record.
Yes I’ll admit, I’ve made some crucial mistakes this past year running this business, whether it was not being able to make an event that we had obligations to make, or not replying fast enough to event coordinators and missing out on events, or even selling out / closing early..
these are all MAJOR disappointments to customers…
If you’re one of those people thats been affected and you’re reading this, I truly am deeply sorry. But you’re still here, reading this so I’m grateful.
Personally;
I’ve had the worst year I’ve had in quite some time. I’ll be real, im human. Youre human..
we make mistakes,
I’ve been dealing with a nasty divorce along with an expensive custody battle.
Mentally ive been so exhausted, the anxiety is real,
but I’ll always keep trying to keep the bills paid and food on the table for my family. When youre truly passionate about something you will do ANYTHING in your power to make things possible..
With all this being said, I’ve decided that I’m going to practically start over AFTER this season.
(I moved outta the 989 so the name doesnt make much sense in the 810)😅
I’ll be making another post some other day revealing our new exciting plans for NEXT SEASON.
We are NOT going anywhere, we are just rebranding ourselves. We are going to switch up how we serve, what we serve.
Just a good hard RESET.
If you’re looking to book for next season, please continue to message / email us as we are not going anywhere. I’m just taking the winter off so we can go over EVERYTHING to ensure our mistakes this year don’t cost us for next season. I’m learning through these mistakes, and I promise we will be back BETTER THAN EVER next season.
(If you have us booked this month and next we will still be there!!)
