ItsTodd Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I am just starting out with my vending machine business and was wondering what the main difficulties and pain points are. I'm not to worried about the social aspect in placing the machines. What I am concerned about is route management. How do you keep track of machine levels, profits, and servicing? I have one machine in my work breakroom that I manage with a spreadsheet, and that is starting to overflow with just the one machine. How much details do people track? I've noticed comments like, "if xxx isn't moving, I pull it" - what are the criteria and how much rigor is used in determining if a candy is performing or not?

musser Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 If a machine is mt when I walk in a locations door I need a bigger machine or need to come more often. If a machine still has product I am coming too soon and wasting labor and fuel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
