    Default $200 cash for YOU

    Baaaaaasically.... my partner and I have just purchased a brand new $60,000 mobile concession truck. Its big, its bad ass, it has grills and a freezer, etc etc. This is going to be our side company/job. We are in the process of developing a menu and all that good stuff.

    HOW YOU CAN MAKE $200: I don't know Atlanta and surrounding areas that well. We are not looking to have an employee drive the truck everywhere and park at random places and hope for customers. I am looking for a secure location, perhaps next to a big office building/warehouse where I can park the truck and have someone work out of it 7 days a week. I will take care of the permits/permission and all that good stuff. I need to know of a location/building/warehouse where MANY people work that has little to no options for its employees to get lunch/dinner. You know, the type of location where people have to hop in their cars and drive somewhere to get food on their lunch break.... a location where lunchtime is an inconvenience rather than a pleasure or where employees are almost forced to bring food from home.

    If your suggestion ends up being where we operate out of, we will give you $200 cash... and a free meal. It's not like I could take your idea and not pay... you'd know where I'd be! Thanks.

    Yeah, we've already got Colleges/universities on the list, as well as strip clubs/regular clubs/bars for the night time. However, we are leaning more towards office buildings at the moment. Thanks.

    GREAT suggestion. However, according to Google : "Wayne Farms LLC will phase out its Douglas, Ga. further processing facility by the end of July 2009 due to the end of a long-standing and highly-specialized customer contract and as a necessary next step in the company’s ongoing efforts to increase operating efficiencies."

    Keep it permantly parked at one of the parking lots near GA State Commons (the housing about 3 blocks from campus) there is only shitty and expensive landmark diner there, you WILL make money there.

    windward parkway off 400 - tons of office buildings on that road. has tons of restaurants along that road also. worth a look though.

    world of coca cola area - although underground atlanta is real close foot traffic should be good due to tourism.

    centennial olympic park - tons of tourists over there, foot traffic galore. Never seen a concession stand out there.

    corner of peachtree st and 16th street (high museum of art) - u have a museum there and lots of big old office buildings. Restaurants within walking distance...

    peachtree street near fox theater - office buildings and fox theater and bank of america building, emory hosp. nearby. i see tourists sometimes. There are restaurants nearby though...

    buckhead financial center on peachtree - this area is near lenox mall, tons of new developments going on (i.E construction) ...etc. a marta station is nearby. Always see a alot foot traffic driving thru there...

    suntrust bank in downtown corner of peachtree and peachtree center avenue - if you drive south on peachtree passing the suntrust building there alot of tall building there. Seems very promising on that street.


    Good luck..

    Great responses. I'm going to spend most of next week checking some of these places out.

    Centennial Park/World of Coca Cola/Aquarium was one of my first ideas but had to let that one go. There is nowhere for me to park the truck to catch everyone unless I get a street permit which will disrupt traffic. Keep in mind, this thing is HUGE. Its not a little hotdog cart.

    Shouldn't you have thought about this before buying the truck?

    You would probably make more money by driving to different events. They let big trucks like that park on the sidewalk/parts of the centennial olympic park (when there are events going on). But to have a fixed position there you would be competing with the food court at the CNN center. A LOT of people go there just to eat daily.

    Come on now, give me the benefit of the doubt here. We've had the truck for roughly 3 months now and it is already making good money in South Carolina. We want to bring it here.

    We've got the events covered. Thanks tho.

    Thats not really going to make a difference. You won't have to pay up unless you have a contract, and I doubt you'd set up a contract for $200 lol.

    True, but $200 is hardly worth not paying up when a pissed off person, knowing where the truck will be, can cause so much more in damage late at night sometime.

    Do you have anymore info on that? Perhaps the name of one of the carpet factories so I can do some research? Thanks.

    Theres a big industrial park in Cartersville that could use a lunch wagon... lots of mills around but only one eating place (and its a "biscuits n' gravy" type place). No where else around for about 2 miles in any direction other than a couple gas stations. And there are plenty of vacant lots (if you need somewhere to park the big truck).
