Nice! Have you been getting any bookings?

Yes been booked. Had to raise price to slow it down. Thought had to compete with hotel pricing but realized this is a different market. Want to raise it again and see what happens. Just seeking 2x a month.

@@innrpce Awesome, I'm glad it's working well for you!

Glad it was helpful!

It's definitely tough and changing fast!

Yeah, to do it right you typically need a business permit in the city (or cities) you will be operating in. Although to be honest most people doing this are doing it without a permit.

Fortunately there are a decent amount of charcuterie companies out there now so I would recommend finding one near you and partnering with them. You should be able to find small, local charcuterie companies if you search on Instagram or TikTok.

There are quite a few charcuterie companies out there now so I would recommend finding a small, local one and see if they are willing to provide you with the charcuterie boards.

Thanks!

We operated in a bunch of cities all over the Phoenix metro area.

Thanks!

@@kristinrodriguezrealtordmv3434 Thanks! I think it's a good option for some situations.

Hey! If you haven't created a website yet and you don't want to spend the time designing one, the template we offer is a well designed website that will help you establish your online presence. Best of luck to you!

My family uses other agents working in the same area

Unfortunately I am not qualified to give insurance advice which is my recommendation is to have a conversation with an insurance agent in your area. They typically will have a consultation with prospective customers for no charge.

It's okay to start small and test it out, but it's better to start than to not! You've got this!

Thanks! Those are just wooden dowels that you can pick up from Home Depot or Lowe's. We cut the dowels in half and glued them to the base of the table.

Hey man, thanks for watching! I was never big into marketing my real estate services on social media so I'm not planning on doing any of that now. I'm still part of a few services that send me the occasional referral for a referral fee upon closing so I'm planning on only pursuing those deals as well as any deals I might get from my network or past clients. If you already have the social media pages established, you could potentially keep them but just not post to them anymore. It's not likely they will bring you any leads if you aren't active on there, but it's possible. Congrats on your company! What kind of business do you have?

@@startuptrevor thanks its a crypto company

I was seriously shocked!

@@startuptrevor you are the man

Yeah hearing about these returns really puts a side hustle like that into perspective! I've been meaning to do a follow-up video about less passive ways to make money (essentially businesses and side hustles) because I personally think one of the best long-term investments you can make is starting a business, rather than investing in the stock market. Your vending route sounds like a cool business! Have you tried to grow the route?

@@startuptrevor it is neat, but I end up dreading collection/restock days. It requires a certain level of discipline. I started out checking them once a week, collecting $2 is so disheartening 😂 no pun intended, but now I try to check them quarterly. I sell .50 Squishland toys which makes it all super easy and I'm profiting .40 per transaction. At some point I would like to add drink machines to my route but I may sell my route before I get that far, who knows?

Thank you! Good luck! It's a lot of work, but it definitely has the potential to be worth it.

His template is only $199! You could build your own for very cheap if you are skilled, or most (skilled) web designers usually charge around $120/hr

Hi Yeisi! Taylor is right about the pricing :) Please let me know if you have any questions!

You should go for it! It honestly can grow into a good income pretty quick.

Try it out! It doesn't cost anything to apply for the program and it only takes a minute to do.

I'm glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching and feel free to reach out with any questions you have!

Hey man, thanks for watching and subscribing! If you've lasted 7 years in the business, then you must be doing a good job at it. But I hear you on the tough clients in this market. I just fired a new client who wants to get a home for 25% under current market prices, even though there hasn't been a drop like that in my market at this point. I hope you sell a lot of homes this year!

@@startuptrevor I'm glad you were able to dodge that bullet! I had an old neighbor tell me she wanted me to list her home, but she didn't want people to come inside her house until they were under contract, wanted me to use the photos from the previous listing 2 years prior, and would you mind giving me a discount on the commission? "I don't think you are doing much to earn a whole 3%". Finally I just recommended she find another agent. She's cycled through 2 other agents already that I've seen and she's still asking about $40k over market value. You can't please them all!

@@startuptrevor I hope you get a lot of sales as well! You put into words something that I've been feeling for a long time when you talked about wanting to work on a business and how there's no prospect of selling your real estate job. It's interesting how it being an agent is conducive to the lifestyle but didn't provide the long-term effects of equity that come with being a business owner.

Thanks for subscribing! I'm glad you found the video helpful!

Thanks for watching my videos! I haven't followed up with them recently. A while back I checked and saw some of the pictures they were posting online just to see what they were up to. If I can get ahold of them or if I hear from them, I'll see if I can do an update on that company!

If we still owned the company I would be happy to share that information, but because we sold it, it's not my information to give out now.

Glad you like it!

Hi Doris! You should be getting an email later today with a link to transfer that website to you. Thank you for your support and please reach out if you have any questions!

It definitely can get busy! Thanks for watching!

Glad you liked it!

Hi Dima! It can be hard to give personalized advice on that because it varies in each state, city, and county. If you Google business licenses in your local area, it should give you an idea of what you need to do in your area. I'm also going to be covering this subject a bit more in my upcoming picnic course that's on pre-sale right now.

That's a good idea! I would definitely need to study up and practice to learn how to do that.
