Contest: Help Michael Name His Hot Dog Cart Business.

Holy smokes! This is the “greenest” cart I’ve ever seen, and I mean that literally.

Picture 7

The first step in the sales process is getting folks to notice you and Michael Lane’s newly finished E-Z Built Hot Dog Cart is guaranteed to stop customers in their tracks.

I think it’s gorgeous! But what should he call it? Here’s Michaels email…

Hey Steve,

Feel free to share the pics… Also have not settled on a name all the way. Could be ” Dawg Waggin’ ”  or “Hotdogs “R” Us ” or  “The Green Weenie” “Hot-Doggin”.. I think we need to vote..  Give us an idea what sounds the best…

Thanks again Steve!

Let’s have some fun with this. Instead of voting for one of Michael’s business names, come up with your own. If you change Michael’s mind and convince him your name is better than any of his, I’ll give the winner  one of my products FREE!

Choose from:
HotDogBiz101 Platinum Package
E-Z Built Hot Dog Cart Video and Plans Package
Cash Tracker Bookkeeping Software Activation Code
Dog Sled
Chip Clips (2 pack)

If you were planning on purchasing any of these products between now and Sunday night,  go ahead. If you win the contest I’ll refund your purchase.

The winner will be announced in Monday’s issue.

Enter the contest as many times as you want,  but don’t forget to congratulate Michael on an awesome E-Z Built Hot Dog Cart while you’re at it.

  1. If he is in the Boston area it could be, “Green Monster Dogs” Of course, he would have to serve Fenway Franks.
    Otherwise, how about, “Fresh Dog”

    3. green cart-red dog
    4. mean, green doggin’ machine

  3. I was thinking about it , when I seen the pictures I thought of a name ( The Green Monster Dog )

  4. Sorry to Yank’s Franks , I didn’t see your post until after I did my post , That was the name I thought of when I seen it also , That’s Funny !

  9. Hi Michael, NICE cart! I should be through with mine this weekend. Big Mommas’ Hotdog House. With your theme of color, I think you should get a pole with a lantern hanging and call it ,” The Green Lantern”. Not only would it be neat but you would already have a source of light for your evening escapades and you can always add more lanterns… Just an idea. Good luck, Lucette

  10. Mike, also just to let you know. The Dawgs R Us thing won’t work. Seems Toys R US has MAJOR precedence in the “R us” trade name. A friend, Steve Card (yes his actual name) Had a baseball card store and called it Cards R US. 6 Months and $10k later he lost in court. Strange but true.

  11. Top O’ the Mornin’ Dogs.

  24. Michael, Congrats on getting the cart going. As I always say Have Fun! This is an awesome career. You have one very important fan …my oldest son. His favorite color is green and we think that cart rocks!

    He suggests you call it “Eating at the Green”

    I would suggest “The Jolly Green Hot Dog Machine”

  37. Relish the Dog is AWESOME for that cart!
    The name of my business is Hot Dog’n…..LOL
    Your cart is gorgeous…best of luck!

  38. Nice Cart! Always loved the color green myself but never thought to do my Hot dog cart in it. Great eye catching idea!
    How about ” Hot Doggin Ala’mode” Great hot dogs and more! And offer a Salsa Verde sauce as a hot dog topping. Tried some of that on a dog before and it was really good! A way to stand out above others on toppings.
    Or other options; “Tomatillo Green, hot dog thing”. ” Big green Hot dog steamer”.
    Well, What ever name you choose Mike, I am sure your going to pulling in the attention and the green with your new cart! Good luck to you!!! Jimmy. 🙂

  39. “Green Eggs, Ham & Hot Dog Wagon”
    “Mike’s Green Eggs, Ham & Hot Dog Wagon”
    “No Green Eggs and Ham…Hot Dogs!”
    These are more as a joke, but I am pleased with all the help others are providing by offering their ideas for your cart. Keep up the good work helping each other.

  40. Congratulations on the great GREEN cart!! I really like the pass-thru for the condiments, that will be handy. As for a name how about “M&M’S GREAT GREEN RED HOTS”

  41. Great color !! I love it.
    Since you are sure to love hot doggin & laughing with customers I would name it Jolly Green.
    Best of luck to you.

  42. LOVE THE CART .. WANT ONE JUST LIKE IT OUR FISHING BOAT IS THE SAME COLOR AND EVERYONE LOVES IT…GOOD LUCK STEVE

  43. Great job Michael! Very nice design enhancements. I was thinking of where to put 4 sinks on it myself. Thanks for the ideas.

    As for names, I really like the suggestions for Hot Dog Envy and Sub Lime Dogs – very cute.
    And for Soylent Green Dogs…ROFL!!!!
    I just about fell over laughing. I can see the advertisement now…”Charlton Heston says ‘…Solylent Green Dogs is FOR people’, so get one today!”

    My first thought was Verde Pups.

    Best of luck to you Michael!

  44. Michael,

    “How about “I make Bank $$$ Dogs”

  48. Flyin’ Green Tomato
    Got Green?
    Alien Dogs.

    Gotta quit thinking about it.
    Here are some more. That’s it.

  49. APPLETIN’S RED DOGS. APPLETIN’S RED CHILI DOGS? DEPENDING WHAT TYPE UR USING AND CONDIMENTS OFFERED?

  50. APLLETIN’S REDHOT CHILI DOGS! I like the name because of green apples….green Dog cart If he does not like it I think I”ll use it for myself but i can’t copy his color..It’s kjust not right.Have to use my imagination on a type of green. He will do well just because the color is an eye cacther. A painted pic of a red comic apple person with a hot dog in hands would a great pic for the cart. ;0) I’m actually jealious…..

  51. I vote for the “Green Weenie” – everything’s going green! For St. Patricks Day you could offer “green” hot dogs!

  52. Did anyone suggested Greenie Weenies? Yeah, I know the contest is over, but I just couldn’t resist giving my input.

  53. Has he picked a Weenier (pun) yet?

    “Im think the Great Green Dawg or Envious Weenies

    I just got my first cart as well (used) so I am trying to do the same.
