Topic: Vending Snacks
|
Vending snacks in a vending machine is a great business, if you start out the right way.
Please realize that the location, your business skills, your people skills and your product selection are as important as choosing the type of style of machine. Usually new vendors get so caught up with the machine that they lose sight of the rest.
Make sure you use brand name products. Large companies have already done the advertising for you. I constantly see vendors putting in "no name" products because they are a few cents cheaper. You customer doesn't want "no name", they want the famous vending snacks.
And while I'm on the topic, there has been a shift towards healthier snacks in machines. Granola bars and peanuts are selling better in snack machines, but, when push comes to shove MOST of your customers will still by chips and bars.
Don't tell your customers what to buy, offer a selection, and let them tell you what they want with their wallet. Let them decide your selection of vending snacks.

Hi Rob!
It was probably the most valuable book I have ever read! You saved me $30,000.00. The people at ($%$#$$%) did everything you said they would. They had some really smooth salespeople. I was ready to buy 5 machines at about $30,000.00, but I had this little thing nagging at the back of my neck. I always trust "that little thing!" I explored for a while, lots of people saying little bits of this and little bits of that, but nothing to really put me off that much. Then I found your site! Bingo! I bought your book, read it in a very short while and did not buy the machines!
Thanks again for the save. Your book was worth every penny, and then some!!!!!!
I'm going to start a $100 business and Make money!
Sincerely,
