Today’s guest is someone I met when I first launch the brand and I’m so excited to have her on the show! Today I’m taking you to Austin, TX to meet Hope Green, founder and CEO of Emoji Grilled Cheese Bar. And though it probably sounds cheesy and cliche, it’s certainly true: Hope is serving hope, inspiration, and good memories with each meal that comes out her window. From a long time entrepreneur to becoming homeless during the Great Recession to bouncing back into social entrepreneurship, Hope knows quite a bit about tenacity and motivation and is just the story we could all use at this moment.

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.
