Rick Falcon Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 I was just curious to know what a regular week looks like for those of you guys who vend full time, how do you break down your days do you take out a day to locate and the rest of the week to service your route? Thanks, Rick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will.vend Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 rick, I spend about 4 days a week out on routes, I usually spend one day a week in the shop. I do not have a set schedule I just go day by day. I do all my locating while out on routes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinnJinn Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Hiya Rick, As for locating, most of us are locating every time we are out of the house. I was at the mall Wednesday with the Mrs. I kept my eye out for possible locations. When you go out to eat, look around etc. As for Bulk, if you are full time vendor, you pretty much have so many machines that you are running your route practically every single day. There is a gentleman here, The great T-bird Johnny. he went from asking questions about 3yrs ago to now having one of the largest routes on this forum. I'm sure he will be along eventually to give some advice. I stopped keeping count on how many machines he had when he hit over 1,000 bulk head vendors.

jamesjmcgough Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Whatever it takes. If I I lose a location, I haul the rack next door or down the block until it finds a home. No Rack Goes Homeless is my motto. If I can't find a home for an orphan that has been kicked out....I just throw it over the bridge and go home.

s.weir Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 You go out, spend about 40 minutes driving to your locations, you deal with your machines, some days especially if they are mechanical machines it can be the worst days of your life ha ha. You locate whenever you get a chance, you try everything to optimize your route, you get stuck in traffic on your way home everyday. Then you get home, sit back, crack a beer and switch to bulk vending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
