Tough Tips for Investing

If restaurants, stores and establishments jostle for the best location possible, why not your vending machine?

1. If a location doesn't look right, or feel right to you, it most likely isn't. So don't insist on it.

2. Once your vending purchase is underway, you will develop the nose for vending machine locations in your area. You will develop the sense for locating machines where they ought to be. Make a list of these locations, and see if your machine supplier can make a killing out of this! Remember that wherever foot traffic is present, you got yourself a fair game.

3. Enthusiasm when your sale picks up is good, but don't bank on the feeling too much. Be prepared for the emotional and the financial highs ands lows. Soon, you'll see that what you like, someone else may not. Moreover, what's hot today might be forgotten by tomorrow (although we can be sure a FEW staples are really here to stay). Listen and digest how your supplier explains the pro's and con's of each location. Eventually, it boils down to a hit or miss struggle of checking out different products and seeing what sells best. So be sure never to spend all your cash on a huge supply of this and that. Experiment even with the amounts you serve.

Now here's a thought that at first glance sounds frustrating, but actually is a challenge: all vending is an impulse buy. So, for example, appeal to your buys by way of the mere fact that they're holding loose change on their hands.

4. Know your market: are they manual workers who need high energy snacks to give them a boost? Or are they weight-watching pencil-pushers who go more for low calorie, non-fat products?

An (Long run!) Investment

As you may have figured out by now with regards to these sturdily built machines, they can be antique-investments too! Take the Vendolator Manufacturing Company's Royal Crown 81, for example. The limited production during the 50s ensures the rarity of these soda machines.

According to www.colamachines.com, a Royal Crown VMC can fetch anything between $8,500 in fair condition up to $23,000 for those of near-original condition.
