LandJGroup Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Most small business like using the local guy for a number of reasons. Chains places could careless. That's the edge I use and it works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 How do YOU compete against the national vending players? Does it come down to $$$, types of machines, service etc? I'm along the Front Range in CO where big towns and small cities of 5,000-30,000 dot the landscape. I can honestly say that my biggest competition in any one city is not Service Vending or some other national vendor, but another local guy who's grinding just as hard as I am. Forget the big guys, they can't match me in cleanliness, service, building relationships and presence. Worry about the other small guy in your area using quality equipment and grinding just as hard as you are. Become friends with that guy ASAP.

There is only one national player and they still have gaps in service areas and that is NEN. Don't worry bout what they do just be the best that u can.

hanihotdog Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 David killed Goliath by using his strength against goliaths only weakness. Identify your competitions strengths and weaknesses... Match your strengths to their weaknesses. Do not try to beat them at their game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkochan Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Don't focus on competing with national vending companies. Instead, do your own locating and target independently owned or local franchises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
