Vending Machine Business - Starting Your Own Vending Business by Jayne Manziel

If you think being successful in the vending machine business is easy, you are wrong. Like any other work, a vending machine business requires work, your time and your commitment.

In starting a vending machine business, you first need to know that there are two types of vending machines. The bulk vending machines and the full line vending machines. The one you see in mall entrances and stores are the bulk vending machines that dispense candies for only 25 cents. Full line vending machines, on the other hand, dispense products like soft drinks or chocolate bars.

Many people do not realize the profit they can get in running a vending machine business. Buying a vending machine will not entail you your savings account. The fact of the matter is, you can start running your own vending business for less than $1,000. A small vending machine that dispenses gum balls is only around $125 depending on the size and a bag of gum balls is only about $25.

Buying the vending machine and the products, however, are only half of the things that should be done in starting your own vending business. The other half should be devoted in finding profitable locations for your vending machines. You can do this on your own or by employing the services of reputable vending locators. If you do not have time to look for good locations on your own, then I suggest that you locate via telemarketing. Employing the services of vending locator services via telemarketing is convenient and easy. You just simply call and the vending locator service will gladly assist your needs. Vending locators have already generated leads of profitable vending locations, and can easily call business managers to negotiate your needs. Be aware that scammers are everywhere, before you decide to do business with a vending locator service, make sure that they are legitimate. Life is hard nowadays, and you cannot afford to lose your money just because of you are not aware that you could be dealing with a dishonest vending locator service..

More and more people are taking interest on starting their own vending machine business because you get to earn profits without doing too much. The machine practically does most of the work for you! While traditional businesses entail that you rent a place, pay for the electricity you consumed, and compensate your employees, a vending machine entails that you only buy the products which the machine dispenses and that is practically it. No need to pay anyone and no need to pay for consumed electricity. You, however, depending on the type of vending machine business you are in, may have to give a small percentage of your profits to the store owner, where your vending machine is located. But that is a very small percentage and you get to keep the rest which is huge. Sometimes they do not really request any percentage which is great.

The only time you will be working in the vending machine business is when the vending machines need to be serviced meaning restocked and cleaned. In most cases, small vending machines need to be serviced only once a month. Full line vending machines, on the other hand, must be serviced more often like once a week or every two weeks.

Being successful in the vending machine business is relatively easy if you are careful and committed. Careful in the sense that you are vigilant and informed in what is happening in the industry and committed in the sense that you are open driven to excel no matter what happens.
