Hi my name is Joe.  Until the middle of 2009, I was working in a ‘pay the rent job’.  Without much prospect of getting a better one, I decided to be my own boss.  Without anything more than a high school eduction, my options were very limited until I found a website about starting a hot dog business.

Within three weeks of finding the website, I had my own stand that I put together with second hand equipment.  All the information on getting the equipment cheap was in the guide on the website and the owner of the website, Perry, included everything you need to now about the legal stuff too.  He’s been in the industry for years and really knows his stuff.

He even said that if I tell other people about his website and they decide to get his book, I will make a little commission, so I got my girlfriend to build this website and if you’re reading this, then maybe it will help you to decide if having your own hot dog business is for you.

You won’t have to spend a lot of money to get started.  I spent just over $1200 for my cart.  It’s not very big, but it has everything I need in it.

Within the second month, I was earning the same money that I was getting in my last job.  The business is growing slowly, and I am learning as I go along.  What is really great is that I now have prospects and might even be able to afford to get married in the near future.
