This is how I get almost all of our locations now. September 15th, Independence Day in Costa Rica, I decided I wanted to try out vending fish food at a 'catch your own' trout restaurant. Walked in with a two headed Beaver half full of trout grub and parked it right next to the pond, ordered a beer. Waited until the owner saw enuff kids slamming in coins before I went into my spiel. I wasn't even 30 seconds into my pitch before he asked me how much those machines cost. Done deal!! He could not believe I was providing the machine, the food, servicing the machine....and still paying him a 20% commission.
After 3 beers($4.50), 12 kids and 1.5 hours these machines had taken in over $6.00. Cost of goods about 30 cents.
