havending Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 I attended my daughters cheer camp this week in Chattanooga, TN. And the plan was to locate as much as free time would allow. We have machines spotted through the area and Chattanooga is full of racks. Reason is that you have guys from Alabama and Atlanta going after same area. So my plan was to go in with the chicken and show locations something new. Only made it to 5 locations because I was kept very busy by family lol. But got a yes at 4 and need to follow up on one. It was very easy to locate the chickens there. I opened with my starting rate and did not have to budge. All super china buffets but for one. It is the food court at the TN aquarium. Now there is not a food court inside but steps from the entrance there is the food court. It's a building that houses 5 eating places with lots of seating all owned by one guy and been there 20 years. I'm confident that when I service the area I can take a chicken or two a locate them all and grow the market.
mainor5251 Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Well done. Ive noticed the same thing, I don't get very many wanting to negotiate on commission rate when locating chickens they seem to care more about the entertainment value it brings to their business.
havending Posted June 30, 2013 Author Posted June 30, 2013 I was stressed about doing the locating because another member here had some bad luck locating the same area couple weeks ago. When you walk in to a location it's nice to be able to show them a machine they have not seen.
Action Vending Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 So did you just locate the chicken or did you get other stuff at the same accounts?
havending Posted July 1, 2013 Author Posted July 1, 2013 So did you just locate the chicken or did you get other stuff at the same accounts? The locations there don't want any more racks. IMO there are too many racks in the locations now so the rack earnings would not be that great. But they all liked the chicken and I can see chickens doing well. Maybe when the see our service I can boot some racks and take over

If your interested in seeing how easy they are to locate call debbie at parsal and have her send you a pdf with a chicken brochure with your company info then go to office supply store have a couple printed on semi gloss card stock and then laminated and hit up a few chinese buffets and other busy restaurants and see how you do.
