Can you really turn a $200 roadside stand into a six-figure seasonal business? Shannon reveals how.

In this episode, she describes how she scaled a humble fruit stand into a multi-state operation generating up to $250,000 a month, all while keeping startup costs low and her values local.

Whether you're looking for a low-risk weekend side hustle or a scalable seasonal business, in this episode, you’ll discover:

  • How to start a roadside or fruit stand with as little as $200
  • Where to source your produce—even if you’re not a grower
  • What makes a stand visually irresistible to drive-by customers
  • Tips for finding high-traffic, low-cost selling locations
  • Why accepting credit cards can 2x your sales
  • Creative ways to sell leftover or overripe inventory
  • How Shannon tapped into “hyperlocal marketing” to beat big-box stores
