MikeM Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I purchased three of these last Oct. Two were already in locations, one doing well, the other not well. So I need two to be located. I have mostly made phone calls but everyone has a machine or is not interested. This is part time so don't have all that much time. Should I hire a locator & if so, who? Also, are honor box snacks a good way to go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allen watson Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Hello MikeM, I started my vending business with 7 of the Genesis combo vending machines. For about 5 months most of them sat in my Garage. The monthly payment kept coming which motivated me to get out and get them placed. Many locations already have a machine, but some of those locations are not happy with their current operator. Just ask for the person that makes the decision on the vending machine and ask them if they are happy with their current service. If they are, move on, if not, ask them why and think about their answer. Can you do better? If so tell them why. A lot of times people want lower prices, and that is not always viable. Sometimes they are getting lousy service, then maybe you can get in that way. 8 years later and we've got 120 machines on location. Persistence pays off in the long run. Best of luck to you.

MikeM Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 Allen, Thanks so much for the reply. Wow, what a success story! I assume you've had good service from the Genesis machines. I know they don't make them anymore. Thanks again for the reply and encouragement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allen watson Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I'm back and forth about the Genisis machines. On one hand, they do look good and in the right location they can be a money maker, but on the other hand, parts are getting hard to find. For the most part, all the problems I've had with them occurred in the first year and covered by a very good warranty. I found a guy in Orange County, California that has a good supply of parts for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
