Show Notes

This week in the midst of everything that reminds the Black community of the freedoms and rights that have not been recognized, as we celebrate Juneteenth this week, we at The Food Truck Scholar will celebrate the freedoms that Black people have fought for and created in spite of the obstacles in front of us. When I think about the guests I’ve had on the show, Patrick Lanier is easily a person who comes to mind who has fought hard to forge a new path for not only himself and his family, but for future generations. Co-owner of Lip-Smackin Creations Food Medic, Patrick went from spending about 14 years in federal prison to becoming an entrepreneur an role model in Nashville, TN. A few months ago, Patrick had media attention for taking his ambulance turned food truck into the streets to feed those impacted by the tornado. But serving others has always been as his core. This is his story

Over the past 5 years, I’ve  learned a lot about what makes a good food truck stand out among the rest. I took 8 of those key concepts and created a book where I could have curbside conversations with each of you about them. This book  is not only digestible and not designed to overwhelm you, but also propels you into action. You can purchase Before You Launch A Food Truck TODAY at TheFoodTruckScholar.com/shop in paperback and ebook format as well as on Amazon.
