Southeast Treats Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Wanted to share this, I shot it down but it's interesting - called by a management company for a new location (retail store break room). They set the prices, get a commission, AND I would have to supply and empty the recycling bins! Yea - noped right outta there..... they still want to add me to their vendor list for future work, does anyone have any experience with them?

AZVendor Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 They are part of USI. What they told you is typically the way that management companies work. What they didn't spell out is what reporting might be required of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southeast Treats Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 They sent me a packet, from what I reviewed it would have to be a pretty large account before I could make any money thru them. Lots of monthly reporting and everything goes thru their office first.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allen watson Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 It's very easy to comply with their format. I have an account thru them and am glad they called me. It's been 2 years now and I just send them the monthly commission check (10%) and all is well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chkoolaid1 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 So the benefit is they find and deal with the account? Are you under contract or are you free to pull your equipment if it's underperforming?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more like they have a national contract with locations and sub contract it out to you and I. For instance, the area I'm in is not in there service area but they have a contract that includes a location in my town. So instead of them driving 200 miles for one customer, they called and asked me to service the account. They are just some people trying to fulfill a contract. It's negotiable. You can ask them anything and usually work it out to both of your liking. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
