business 📝 Business Plan The purpose of this is to display a cohesive idea of what TUCKEDito is after one year in business, and what it will become over the next five years. This is a long form business plan, it is meant to be detailed. It combines almost all major areas of our business for current and future business.
financial 💸 Costs Update:🌻 August 2022 With today's costs our menu is 15% more expensive than it would have been in September. When you think about it like this, instead of month to month. The cost decline over the last month loses its luster.

Members only financial June ☀️ Financial💰 Analysis📊 I look at this chart and think Pareto Principal. 80% of our sales have come from the last 3 months.
insight 🚚 The Trailer Investment A main topic of conversation right now is the investment of a food truck or trailer as a second mobile set-up. It would be a second in the spring, summer, and fall, and the only (for the most part) during the winter.
insight 🤔 What Are We Thinking? Week 27, 2022 🧐 We'll provide great, unique, ingredients and customers will just pick up for their party. Lower price point for the customer, easier fulfillment for us.
insight Table Top🍽 TUCKEDito🌯🌮 Made to order tacos and taquitos for groups of 20-40. We're thinking small private parties and small team corporate lunches. We think people like small cutesy personal set ups
insight 🤔 What Are We Thinking? Week 26, 2022 🧐 We see this economic downturn as having opportunity on the other side. We believe there will be a pivot and another Fed put coming and, if that's the case, that $10k in fiat could be useful at that time.
financial 💸 Costs Update: ☀️ June 2022 Meat: We started buying our pork butts from BJs and Costco. These stores are significantly cheaper than everywhere else we went in the past. This is a win for us.

insight 🤔 What Are We Thinking? Week 22, 2022 🧐 We're offering it as a $2 side and a $1 add-on to tacos. I've been working on my guac recipe for years, so it wasn't something I had to put through a testing phase before introducing.
insight 2️⃣ Building 👷🏻 TUCKEDito's Framework: Marketing Campaign Marketing ideas are included, but by no means was this our full campaign. In fact, we didn't really have a campaign, just an endless list of stupid, fun, unique, and a bit off-kilter, ideas.
insight 🤔 What Are We Thinking? Week 21, 2022 🧐 The tacos will be a specialty item. What I mean by that is, we'll offer tacos at like 15-25% of events. We're hoping the deliciousness and the scarcity attracts people on those days.
