Hey Eddie posted this Locator Discussion, but here is is.

This is an easy way to get an extra free location out when me or Keith send you to drop off a machine at a paid location. When you go to drop off at a location poke your

head into the store next door and introduce yourself and tell them

what charity you’re with and how their neighbor is participating in the

vending program (built in credibility since you already doing business

with their neighbor). Tell them it’s free and you'll be servicing the

machine for the charity and tell them how much your charity raises

with these little gumball machines (for instance the NCCS raises over

half million dollars a year for children with cancer) many are

impressed and are eager to participate. Try it on your next drop off

and let us know how it worked for you.

Keith and I have decided that we'd like to embrace this site and your

success will most definitely be ours as well.

As we think of little tips and tricks that we've learned over the time

of trial and error we are going to pass them to you.

Keith and I are not in business together we are two friends who happen

to be in the same business.

How the heck we became so enthused about finding gumball locations I'll

never know but here we are.

Nice tip guys. Look forward to hearing new tips each week, right? Thanks!

I like seeing your tips in this section as I don't read the locator section much.

Thanks Nam,

But yeah we plan on putting a tip up once a week. So that members can see and discuss, on different angles on applying tips and ways to use those tips to make them a more efficient vendor, and also save money :D

That is a good tip for the newbies or really anybody.I've done this before and gotten a location of about 1 out of 3 requests.Little did I know that their are some business owners who actually dispise the next door neighbor,or as one guy put it"that F@#@@*# As+%#@..."

Yea Islander that happend to me once when I was delivering on of my machines for my personal route the guy cussed me for knowing the name of his neighbor. It was funny stuff. but you said 1 out of 3. thats not bad. saved 50 bucks

oh yeah your right about that being a good tip for newbies and anybody because I'm a dang locator and I forget to do that every now and then when I deliver my machines. some of our sugestions will be good for newbies and reminders for the vet.

We really appreciate your guys feed back

great tip.  I used to sell home improvements door to door and I always knocked 2 left and 2 right of an appointment or a sale.  Too bad the economy is so tough now.  It is also one of the things I do with my retail racks.  No one usually wants to be the first with a product, but they never want to be left out on what is percieved to be a good deal either.  You should always stop at the neighbors I go two right and two left adn always name drop.
