Professional Food Truck Converter Andrew Coe Today's guest is the affable but very knowledgeable Andrew Cole, from FoCo Food Trucks in Fort Collins, Colorado. We talk base vehicles, regulations, sealing leaks, keeping a food truck cool and a fairly offensive sandwich (that I would definitely eat).  If you are planning or dreaming of converting a vehicle for use in catering, this episode is a must listen.

Today's question comes from Jeff, who has a question about creating one large blog post to launch his new blog. Should he create one epic blog post to launch his new blog? What other content should he create to launch his blog? As his blog grows, how does he balance the larger blog posts and the smaller posts? Jeff’s website is at NewMiddleClassDad.com. In this episode, we mention my interview with Neil Patel about content marketing for your blog. Listen to that episode at SmartPassiveIncome.com/session214. You can find the FoodTruckr.com article here: http://foodtruckr.com/2013/10/what-i-wish-id-known-before-starting-my-food-truck/. Do you have a question about launching your new blog?

Today's question comes from Sean, who asks about building traffic to his blog. Which method is best for a new blog: SEO or content marketing? Sean’s site is http://flighttrainingpro.com. I recommend using Yoast SEO WordPress plugin to help you include the correct SEO fields (https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/); All in One SEO Pack is also a good alternative plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/). This is the FoodTruckr article I mentioned (http://foodtruckr.com/2013/10/what-i-wish-id-known-before-starting-my-food-truck/). The giveaway plugin I recommend is KingSumo (http://kingsumo.com/).

Episode 009- Maybe one of your New Year's resolutions is to start a food business.  Ayoub Abboud is the owner of the Knight Slider Food Truck.  A few years back he decided to start his food truck business when the food truck craze was just starting up in Buffalo, New York. During the conversation, Ayoub explains what he did to start the business, some lessons he's learned along the way, and what he would do differently if he were to do it again.  There is a lot to learn here from a really knowledgeable and friendly guy. If you want more information about starting a food truck business, one of the resources he recommends is Mobile Cuisine. Another very helpful resource was created by Pat Flynn and is called FoodTruckr. Also, I baked beer bread from a Paul Hollywood cookbook called 100 Great Breads. In order to make beer bread, one needs beer so I used a coffee lager from Saranac Brewery.  This is the "go to" beer that we have around the house lately.  The bread turned out fine but I lost a lot of the coffee taste that I was shooting for. If you like the podcast, please forward guysandfood.com or this  episode (or any other episode) onto your friends either through email or via the app you use to listen to the show.  That helps build a bigger and more vibrant Guys and Food community-- and we all benefit from that!
