Roasted Sweet Potato Seller

  I decide to post about roasted sweet potato seller because it's winter! XD Actually it's not a part-time job but it has a character similar to part-time job.

1) Work

  A work is just roasting the sweet potato and selling it. Doesn't it sound easy? :D First, get a roasted sweet potato machine and take your place. It is advantageous to take your place where has a large floating population. But, you know it's quite hard to take a place near the main street because there is a street tax in some places and a major business district has already developed. Anyway, the thing that you need to do is just to take your place and sell it.

2) Pay & Working hours

  Selling roasted sweet potato is a kind of private business, so its working hours are free. But the prime time is from 19:00 to 24:00, because there are lots of floating population in main street or down at that time and it's time to get dark. It means temperature goes down. If you sell the roasted sweet potato near the apartment complex or collective housing area, 19:00 to 23:00 is the proper time, because it's the time that lots of office worker leave their company.

3) How to do it?

  Take the preparations you need and just sell it. Following is everything you need.

  -Preparation-

 ① Roasted sweet potato machine

  : Mostly people buy a used one. Used gaseous one is about 50,000KW to 250,000KW.

 ② Yellow envelope

  : This envelope is for putting the roasted sweet potato. The reason why you need yellow one is because of the ashes. You can get it on Internet on a volume purchase. It's about 1,000KW to 1,500KW per 100 envelopes.

 ③ Banner

  : Of course you can sell it without banner, but its effect of advertisement is well worth the money. The price of the banner is different depends on the size, but average is 30,000KW to 100,000KW.

 ④ Sweet potato

  : It is the most important preparation. There are all kinds of sweet potatoes; gold sweet potato, pumpkin sweet potato, chestnut sweet potato, etc. Usually people use a pumpkin sweet potato since it has the best value for money.

4) Pros and Cons

  One of advantage is that it's easy to make a good chunk of money on winter. And it could be a good experience to you because you can meet lots of people when you sell it. You can also learn some know-hows and margins.

  And demerit is... IT'S CRAZILY COLD. Some people probably think it's not that cold because there is a fire around sellers, but it doesn't at all. Is winter air a winter air without reason? A glacial winter wind roughens the skin. And margin is not guaranteed, it depends on the selling skills of each seller!
