AMD Snacks Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 1. For a big 2" machine how many bolts are you guys using to secure them to a rack? I felt like 4 per machine was overkill, but 2 I wasn't sure if it'd hold. My rack are only a couple months on location and I figure I'd better figure this out now if I need to order more bolt brackets. 2. Do you change products on cycles, like every three months? Or only when it slows down? Or always keep a product in the machine if it's selling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zjtaylor Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I'm not doing any 2" or toys yet but I can give my 0.25 cents on how I rotate my gumballs and candy. I only do products I can get from Sam's. In my experience I know that the top sellers in my area are in this order: 1. Gumballs 2. Skittles 3. M&M Chocolate 4. M&M Peanut So if I do a double head, I start with gumballs and Skittles. If one of those doesn't perform, I switch to the next option down the line. Eventually I figure out what does good in that location and I might either adjust the number of heads to maximize profit or just relocate the machine to a better location. If I'm doing a big rack, I can figure out what does well in that location and then I'll have an experimental head where I usually try off the wall gumball flavors and sometimes I find one that does extremely well.

PerformaVending Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 4 bolts, or whatever the rack allows. You can never "overdo" bolts. I only rotate capsule products when sales start to droop, or the product is discontinued by the manufacturer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
