Don’t let transportation be the reason you keep putting off your business!

One of our BIGGEST hurdles when we started vending was figuring out how to get everything to events. We have a sedan, and baby...those coolers were NOT about to fit.

Two years later, we still rent a U-Haul when we need the space. We load her up and go make our money!

If you’re considering this too, here’s what we’ve learned:

1. Map your mileage
Mileage adds up, so know how far you’re traveling BEFORE you book.

2. Factor in ALL your expenses
Rental + mileage + gas + vendor fee + product costs. Know what you need to make for that event to be worth it.

3. Be strategic about location.
The farther we travel, the more money that event needs to make. Simple.

4. Run the numbers for YOUR business
A 50-mile event isn’t automatically a bad idea if the earning potential justifies the cost. Know your numbers and make the decision that makes sense for YOU.

A U-Haul may not be your forever solution, and that’s okay. For us, it works NOW while we build toward what we want later.

So map your mileage, run your numbers, rent that van and go make your money!

And if you’re starting a lemonade business thinking, “Okay sis... but what ELSE do I need to know?” I got you!

My Lemonade Starter Kithelps you get started, and my Permit Playbook helps you navigate the not-so-fun-but-very-necessary permit side of vending.

Comment “STARTER KIT” and I’ll send you the info!

No gatekeeping over here, baby! Y’all can have the recipe.

Dragon Me to Paradise has been one of our signature flavors, and she’s real simple: fresh lemon, ¼ cup of sugar, 3 pumps dragon fruit, 3 pumps pineapple, ice, water and a good shake. That’s it. Now what you do with that information is between you and your lemonade stand

And listen, adjust that sugar to YOUR liking. I already know somebody’s auntie is about to clutch her pearls over that ¼ cup. Please. We sell lemonade, not lemon water. 😭

Now for my fellow lemonade vendors and future lemonade vendors…If you noticed the order label on my cup at the beginning, YES, I made those too! They’re the same style of labels we use to keep orders organized when we’re vending, and I turned them into editable templates so you can customize them for your own menu.

They’re available in my bio along with my other lemonade business templates. Because your internet sista is gonna give you the recipe AND help you get your little setup together. We can all eat over here 💛

One thing every new business owner needs to know about applying for vendor events is rejection is part of the process.

Not every vendor application will turn into an acceptance, and that’s okay. I’ve been denied, waitlisted, overlooked AND accepted. The biggest thing I’ve learned from event vending? Keep applying. Your next application could be your next YES.

Fellow business owners, how did you push through your rejection season? Drop some encouragement for the business owners who may be in theirs right now 💛

And to my new business owners, stay encouraged. I share tools, templates & resources I’ve personally used to help make the process a little easier. Check out the resources in my bio.

We really thought prepping 50 would buy us some time 😂

30 minutes into the event: EMPTY TABLE.
All 50 gone and we were right back to prepping round ✌🏾

One thing vending has taught us QUICKLY is that you can plan, prep and think you’re ahead… then the crowd will humble you 😭 But having to make another round because the first one SOLD? That’s a problem we’ll take every time 🙏🏽

What’s something yall thought you prepped “enough” of and ended up running through way faster than expected?

Tent vendors… y’all know the event ending does NOT mean we’re done 😭

Tables gotta come down. Tent gotta come down. Product gotta get packed. Coolers gotta get loaded. Trash gotta go. And somehow everything has to fit back in the truck like Tetris. 😂

Meanwhile the food truck next to us: 🚚💨

How long does breakdown take yall after an event? 👀

As a small business owner, we always have the BEST intentions when it comes to filming content. 😂

Every event it’s, “Okay, don’t let us forget to get videos today.”

Then the gates open... and we go into full event mode.

Taking care of customers becomes the only thing on our minds, and before we know it, the event is over.

I swear I crack up every time I check my camera roll after a successful event because somehow I have zero proof we were even there.

No drink videos. No behind-the-scenes. No trendy Reels.

Just a couple random clips and a whole lot of memories. 😂

Please tell me we’re not the only small business owners that do this 😭

A little behind the scenes for the people who always ask about lemon prep 🍋💛

One thing I wanted to clarify because I know people notice it in our videos:
We DO reuse the original produce boxes for transport, but our lemons are cleaned and transferred into fresh clean bags every single time before prep 👏🏽

Also before somebody asks 😭 yes, some people use baking soda instead of vinegar and that works too.

But please don’t use both together thinking you’re getting bonus cleaning points… they react and basically cancel each other out!

And if you have a produce brush, that’s another great option to give your lemons a little extra scrub 🍋🫧

This is just the method that works for us and has become part of our event prep routine 💛

When we first started vending, there was no custom tent, no fancy setup, and definitely no huge budget 💛

One thing I wish more beginner vendors knew... you do NOT have to start glamorous.
Start with what you have. Learn your market. Build your process. Make sales. Upgrade as you grow.

But when you ARE ready to level up your setup, that doesn’t automatically mean spending thousands either 👏🏽

This custom tent ended up being under $600 and completely changed our visibility at events.

Huge shoutout to and their printing team for helping bring our custom tent vision to life 💛

If you’re curious to see exactly what we ordered, everything is linked here:

And if you wanna save a little extra coin on the tent, comment DALLAS and I’ll send over the discount 💛

Me: babe it’ll be fun 😅
Him 8 hours later after setup, prep, serving customers, breakdown and loading inventory back up:
🧍🏽‍♂️

The energy at the start of the event isn’t always the same by the end 😭😭😭😂

Small business spouses are built different 😂💛

Some days I still have to stop and remind myself how far we’ve come. 😭🍋

This event ended up surprising us!

In just 3 hours, we sold 150 lemonades with just my husband and me running the booth... and our two kiddos along for the ride. 💛

Was it chaotic?

Absolutely. 😂

But moments like these remind me why we keep showing up, even on the exhausting days.

Building a business while raising a family isn’t always easy, but it’s been one of the most rewarding things we’ve ever done.

Would you believe me if I told you there were times we wondered if anybody would even buy one lemonade? 😭🍋
