My two cents.
Ok question here when you are selling a route, unless you have a contracts with locations which you could share with buyers , what exactly can you do with locations with no contracts. Decision makers who let you put the machines might not even work there any longer. You are just going and filling the machines as part of your routes. Where would you take the buyer other than showing them the machines and locations. Locations are not obligated to share their employee details. We recently sold few locations where we did not have any contracts , all we did was let buyers come with us while servicing 3 times and then we went with them for couple of time once they took over. They changed the contact label on the machines during our last service together..
It has been over year,they are still doing well at those locations.
