  • Don’t bother with Facebook groups

    I haven’t quite made it through all of the podcasts yet, but in my opinion, this podcast covers almost all of the information that people ask about in Facebook groups when they are starting a mobile Coffee business. This podcast is for people who own coffee carts who have the goal of the coffee cart being the business and not necessarily opening a Café. It’s for Coffee caterers.

    the people who run this Podcasts clearly know what they’re doing, and they share the information and very open and tr... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

72.How to Hit Your First $100k With a Coffee Cart (with Christian Lynch)
Q: How should a new cart owner approach marketing and outreach in the early days?
Start with two hours of daily outreach to offices and event planners, engage on LinkedIn with founder-led content, use a plain, high-value offer rather than heavy sales pitches, and test demand via pilots like weddings or private events while gradually increasing post frequency as comfort grows.
72.How to Hit Your First $100k With a Coffee Cart (with Christian Lynch)
Q: What is the practical path to reaching $100K in revenue with a coffee cart?
Focus on high-ROI activities: build a steady pipeline through warm outreach, optimize event mix to favor high-value private events, use LinkedIn to reach decision-makers, and consider multi-cart strategies or value-added services to raise average order value; also track numbers to understand which months and events drive revenue and adjust staffing and location accordingly.
70.We Reacted to 7 Mobile Business Ideas. Here's What We'd Actually Start (July Q+A)
Q: What are your tips and tricks on closing the sale for mobile catering services?
Focus on communicating the full value and scope of the service, present a clear menu and visuals, follow up persistently, and avoid leaving the conversation open-ended; use structured questions to guide the lead toward a decision and address objections with concrete benefits and next steps.
25. Event Biz Q&A: From Pricing to Scaling, We Answer it All
Q: When should I hire a second in command, and how do I know I can afford them?
Promote from within where possible to keep compensation growth manageable and leverage existing staff who understand the business. Build a clear org chart, determine which departments you'll delegate, and ensure you have the cash flow to support a higher payroll with gradual raises as performance justifies it.
25. Event Biz Q&A: From Pricing to Scaling, We Answer it All
Q: How do you juggle transitioning from a side hustle to catering being the main source of income while working another full-time job?
Start by calculating your minimum living expenses and confirming if you can cover them for a few months with a buffer. Increase lead generation and leverage the extra time to focus on marketing, while gradually ramping up events. Consider keeping a secondary, non-W2 income during the transition for stability, and think about bringing in a second barista or partner gradually to share responsibilities.
