Mike i just watch you video on starting a snow cone business but u did the same last year starting around the end of March. I bought a generator from fingerhut and bought a snow cone machine just like the one you showed for $37 picked up five flavors loaned a pop-up from a friend and got old fashion snow cone cups a case of 500 for $30, as well as 500 spoon straws. By the end of the season i owned 3 snow cone crushers, three canopy's, 28 flavors, two freezers, and a 20 foot trailer.So in parting "Yes" you can start a business on a shoe string budget, and if you work hard and keep putting back in the company. You can get ahead.
Amazon is selling the snowball Machine for $35 and flavoring 22$ an Gallon differant flavors go to dollar tree walmart for Foam cups they also are selling bags of ice you will clean up
I started selling ice cream from a "high tech" bike recently, but when I go to events where there's snow cones, I get my ass kicked, I just bought a ice "shaver" like the one you have in the video, im really interested to see how it works
I loved the video ! Thank you! I laughed so hard when you said “....a beautiful cascade of magnificent ice!” Then your son says....” a ball.” 😂😩💀 Love it! Keep it up! 💕
As someone thinking of doing a snow cone stand that's cool, but I'm betting the shaved ice from that machine is not that great. Of course on a budget what can you do. I have a little snowie shaver I bought for 200 but it comes out just like fine snow, but it's purely for personal use.
Omg hahaha Dude I am so surprised and honestly so happy that after you grabbed the ice and said what you said right after aha I like how you didn't ignore that!! I'm the same way . I mean hey why lie about it we all do things randomly. This is Great 100% Real Thank You for that and also for the advice love the video
@@foodtofinancialfreedom8562 I was like how could I buy all that to have a snowball trailer that I want for a full on thing. Now I'm thinking I'll start with a bicycle trailer.
Good info I've been all over YT and finally found your video what u was looking for all along! Something short and simple I was confusing myself Lol thanks so much and appreciate your expertise sir!!
@Food to Financial Freedom Inspiration is a m*********** because i've been thinking and talking about doing itbut seen you im around a chef why not really use it ..

Did you need that big of a truck?
Do you think you can answer a question about a trailer for me?

Those $35 machines are a gimmick. Those are barley good for home use
Bob Newhart Dang!
This is what I needed to see! Ty! I Am ordering this stuff today!
awesome! Hope it goes well!
You forgot the license from the state, and permits in the cities you work in.
Any way you could do a follow up to this video and how you have progressed in the snow cone business after all this time. Thank you!
Thank you for the insight! And major thumbs up for the hometown! Armour Blvd, and troost!
Buying the concentrates and mixing your own syrup would maximize your profit margins even more I’d imagine.
Depends on how long it takes. Time is money.
This is inspiring!
3:30 made me happy. All love.
This video really helped me out u told me everything I need to kno in one video Thanks 😌
What licensing do you need to apply for from the state to operate a snowball business?

Awesome information, Mike. Thank you. Will look into this as an add-on when I'm doing solo events where I'm the only vendor.
Papa.. I cant emphasize enough how productive sno cones can be,
You can get buckets to make your own ice blocks for your ice shaving machine.
how long did it take for you to make the $3000.00 from your intial investment?
he should respond to that
I'd say it depends on your location &/or the event that you attend.
First event
great video thanks for this price range and this video
My pleasure!
I loved the video ! Thank you!
I laughed so hard when you said “....a beautiful cascade of magnificent ice!”
Then your son says....” a ball.” 😂😩💀
Love it! Keep it up! 💕
A bowl
You mean a bowl
Bowl
I laughed so hard when he said "a beautiful cascade of magnificent ice "
And YOU THOUGHT HIS SON SAID: a ball of ice !! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Very valuable content please make more videos!
Thank you! Will do!
I about to ask why but you answered my question. 😆
Informative video. Flavor concentrates to make your own flavor syrup. Ready to Use syrup are less taste.
Which brand concentrate do you guys use?
What permits do you need?
Health inspection. Unless you can sell under cottage law.
Do I need permission to sell snowball like in the parks or beach?
I would think so
I came here to learn how to Piss Vinegar, and all I learnt to make was sweet crumbly ice.
Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you so much!
Son to the right is so cute
Your awesome. Do u ever put ice cream in the bottom
you rock, brother
What brand flavors are you using?
can you do a video on permitting. got any horror stories in regards to licensing
Love your video....
Thanks!
Wow you make it easy!
This summer is going to be record breaking just watch
We are going to kill it!
What kind of machine is that?
This was very good thanks
Glad you liked it!
Do you need a permit ?
This is america of course you need a permit
Thank you for this video 😁
You’re welcome 😊

Yo I can't stop laughing but it's true
I could not understand when you mention Audi's /Wal Mart and getting something for $50?
He says food tent.
I love tht ur from kc I am too and I just got my machine and I'm ready to get to wrk ...
A KC native! What’s up my friend! I got a bunch of videos. I hope you find some that are helpful!
@Food to Financial Freedom Inspiration is a m*********** because i've been thinking and talking about doing itbut seen you im around a chef why not really use it ..
Wouldn't it be better to use a Little Snowie Max 2 than this archaic machine?!?!!
Yes
You do you love. We do extremely well with it.
I have the same machine
Any follow ups ?
Who buys snow ones for $11 and those cheap machines make a terrible texture of ice that most people won’t care for.
I dont know who would buy a snow cone for $11..I sell mine for 4$ . And have done extremely well. You do you love
It's so corny... But his son looks so nervous
Wish we could see how it works
Great Video!!!
Did he just say Aldi’s I thought it was only in Britain
Like if that’s what you thought to
They’re in USA
Altimore Fields I know I just didn't know it was in the usa
Did he just get away with poisoning that poor kid!?
Wow a $3 return? No thanks. Dislike
