T BIRD Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I just placed a large order for locations with Midwest today. I am excited and a bit nervous about it all especially the 3 racks ( 2-five machine racks and 1- four machine rack ) My first 10 Shootin' Hoops are going out also besdides 10 doubles and 3 triples. Its my first attempt at toys, racks and Shootin' Hoops. I have gotten pointers on how to transport a rack in pieces to a location. I am believing that 2009 will be a very significant and successful year for T-Bird Vending in terms of diversification and expansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chad Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 awesome! cant wait to see how this works out for you. What will you be putting in your rack machines? good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jax Snacks Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Glad to see you are progressing. It's funny how we vendors go through an evolutionary process. From Biz-ops/candy/charity to racks/toys/commission to games to large toys to flat tattoos to cranes to video games, etc. From what I have read and observed in other boards, this is a natural progression. It can be a little nerve racking, but it will be worth it. I ordered my first set of tattoo/sticker machines and will be placing them at the end of the week. So I am looking forward to that as well. Good luck with the racks. Also, try and get some hoops next to your racks either on the first visit or later on. I have done this many times and the location has never turned me down to place a hoops once I have established a relationship. Also, don't be afraid to place super balls in those hoops - hint, hint!

Jax Thanks Jax. I ordered those basketball stickers you talked about for the Hoops machines. I placed my first Hoops machine at a Supermarket in the front entrance today.

Beer980 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Starting out the year with a bang. Placing 26 will get you closer to your goal real quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nepavend Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Johnny, how about an update on the placements you got from Kickstart??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T BIRD Posted March 4, 2009 Author Share Posted March 4, 2009 Brain, Jesse, and Joe.........sorry for not responding to the thread. I did not see it for the past few weeks. I have not dealt with Rob and Kickstart. I have a large order in with Midwest which is going incredibly slow right now. So I have nothing to report on right now.
