- I was at the strawberry festival and walked the place 2 times. I noticed that all other lemonade vendors were dead... as in not one person in line.
Not Ken though! He was slammed, 2 lines and 12 deep - the
entire time.
Why would one vendor (the most expensive one) do better than the rest?

Hey Ben! Addicted to your videos, always informative! “Ben” watching you for years!
My wife and I are finally getting ever so close to starting our lemonade/cotton candy business in the western mountains of Virginia. We don’t have Internet service here, and it’s kind of like the birthday card I once gave her that said, “Give me a home where there is no cell phone” well, that’s pretty much what happened, and it’s keeping us out of VU, “for now”!
While watching this video, there was one moment that made me hit the rewind button.
And that was, starting a lemonade business for under $300 and making a ton of money!
I ended up on this video today after searching “Nimco” lemonade squeezers.
$500.00! I know that the answer to this is that probably a big hammer might be a cheaper way to smash your lemons, or maybe grandma‘s biscuit roller! 😂
It seems that Ken is making a ton of money, and the other vendors that didn’t have the smisher smasher, and clear cups, wasn’t quite making the ton! Maybe I’ll rig up a air compressor with a foot valve that I can hit every time I “manually” squeeze a lemon… or, if I’m not squeezing lemons, just press the pedal a few quick times, you know, just to bring the people in! 🤪
Anyways… Ken Packer is my guru, along with many others that I see in VU, including yourself! Kens videos are very informative, (except the time he wouldn’t revel how to dissolve the sugar), instead he said to watch the video, I think I got it 😉 Also, it’s interesting to see that he has switched to the simple syrup! Good to know!
Keep up the good work Ben! My wife and I love the videos you put out and have helped us on our way from being a “wannabe retired truck driver”, to a testament for you and all you have done for people just like us! 👍
Just so you know, simple syrup is dissolved sugar mixed in an equal part water.
Thank you very much, I’ll gladly take any and all help that comes my way! 👍
@@hughprivette4212 did you buy the info pdf?
Thanks for sharing. I just purchased the Lemonade Vending Pro Course and am planning on getting my liscense this coming week, looking for a commisary now. Never thought I would be thinking about squeezing lemons for a living lol. Thank you for all the info you provide!!!
Ken your set up looks amazing !
Amazing setup Packer! I’d question the using unwashed lemons right from the case, but that’s such a small detail.
I was a t shirt vendor there last year!! Love the strawberry festival
It's so good!
One major thing. Credit cards right on the top with the lemonade.
That will draw more people than anything else.
Most people have a card and limited cash.
I am watching you in Minnesota, you are clear
I can here you
I want my son in Africa to join vender united. He sells street gas to help him go college in Monrovia, Liberia
Love it! Do it!
Great stuff..
Ben has great content and explains things well if you LISTEN. Scrub back and take notes if you think you missed something or didn't quite understand. Most of the questions in these comments are either answered or can be easily by using your google fingers. Do some research people! If you don't figure some things out on your own, you won't learn and will set yourself up for failure. How do you cut a hole in a table, where can I get restaurant supplies, how do I know what county permits are required (call or walk in and ask maybe?)... come on! This isn't rocket surgery.
Thanks for the words!
Thank you, such an interesting video
Glad you enjoyed it!
15:57 should have changed his gloves
Agreed
Where can those clear cups and other supplies be purchased?Appreciate the video sir 🤙
Great video!!! Thank you.
Thank you!
Amazing thank you for this video
Great Video!
All my hotdogging is at events
Still have a day job though
It’s really been 50/50
But it’s really getting into the right events
This WILL help: This is a huge training... so get ready... IT'S FREE! learnhotdogs.com/what-you-have-to-know-about-events/
Yes
Ok I have lots of questions
I’m doing a frozen punch topped with ginger ale at a fair GIVE ME SOME TIPS
Add some dry ice chips to make it bubble up and look foggy.
@@nrolled2888don’t you stand to risk the dry ice hurting a customer if touched or swallowed?
Wanting to get your recipt for 32 oz cup
I would love to know where he got his tent and his table? It looks like a custom table.
I have another video or 3 with Ken. He talks on one about how he built it.
@@BensCarts Would you happen to share the link. Do you know which video?
I do not want to join vendors United unless I can actually get something going where I am. Then I will join but until then I have a few questions. My city say for a Lemonade setup that if you are doing events that you can have a tent but you have to get a permit for each event, and farmers markets do not count as an event because they are reoccurring. If you want todo reoccurring events you must have a trailer with a 3 sink fresh water and wastewater tank and you must have a contract where to dump your waste water. Can you help me navigate this please???
It’s a month later, I wonder if you got going without VU. Don’t forget that the first 5 days are free.
where did he get his tent decorations made at
How doI Find a commissary kitchen ? I cannot find any in my area??? Bentonville ar
learnhotdogs.com/?s=commissary
Your volume is low
Where did he get his tent?
Nice set up, how much fruit do you add to a 32 ounce cup, ty
Test it out.. .usually 1 to 3 oz... depending on the flavor of fruit add.
I have a hot dog brick and mortar. How can I capitalize on these great tips and "tricks"?
I have better stuff for a Brick & Mortar... and have had the pleasure of helping many. Email me at ben@vendorsunited.com and give me some details on your place... I'll be happy to give an honest but kind critique and some awesome tips.
how many licenses do you need before you can sell lemon aid at an event
That's a question for your local, county, and state authorities... your best bet is to start at the county level and Google _____ County ______(state) health department i.e. Cook County Illinois health department
😂
Where can I find where Ken shares how to make those tables
I’m new to ur channel but seeing this if I was there I would of broke down in tears packed up everything and went home because that’s ridiculous I understand presentation is key but absolutely eveyone was standing in 1 line and I would of been upset I would of felt like I failed because wat am I doing wrong and what are they doing rite
That line moved so fast that no one cared. He just did it again last week and it was even better.
8:40 like to try it.. where is the recipe
Simple syrup is 50/50 water sugar heat till mixed
Loud and clear
Where To get the Tents With Graphics for Cheap?
Check Ebay and Etsy.
How can I do this by myself? I make my own simple syrup-delicious and REAL!! But how in HELL can I do this alone?
I do it by myself and how I do it for now is I pre make my lemonade and put it in pouches like Capri sun pouches then add to my cooler on ice. And that helps because I do hotdogs also so it’s a quick grab and go while I’m by myself
Until I get help
@@nikamiller5443 Wow! Do you have videos of this?
