Small business opportunity

[Joe Capobianco]

A friend of mine came to me to start a small side business on weekends and some weekdays. He wants to become a hotdog vendor and would like me to be his business partner. He's getting everything we need as far as the cart, licenses and spot to work. He wants me to work it to start and of course eventually hire someone to work it for us. The reason I'm posting this is because I don't know anything about hotdog vending and wondering if anyone knows if it's worth the time and if the money's worth it. I know there's barely any overhead but wondering how popular buying hotdogs off a cart actually is. The only thing I'm actually risking is just my time because my partners investing in all the equipment and I'm going to pay him back half once we start profiting. I would like to hear back from you guys to see what your opinions are on starting up a small business like this.
