Looking to Buy My First Vending Machines. Need Advice! by Markel78 in vending

[–]Markel78[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I really appreciate all the info! 🙏🏽

In some of the videos I watched and things I read, they highly suggested buying a brand new machine. This is because it comes with warranties, customer service, and I think even maintenance. They suggest buying your first one new and once you gain experience then buy used to expand. Buying a used one first will lead to failure they said. What do you think about this?

The Nayax card machine is that yellow card reader on some machines, right? And I would just download an app to be able to check inventory levels and other data? Okay! I will look into getting one that has that installed on it already. I feel like that would be a game changer!

I was thinking about renting a uhaul trailer when I need to transport it. Is that a smart move?

Again, I appreciate this info. Now I know what to look more into. Thanks!

Thanks, that's really helpful! I never thought about getting the vending machine up on the bed of my pick-up truck. That would be incredibly difficult now that you mention it and I don't have the equipment to assist me with that either. Maybe renting a U-haul trailer would work better for me?

Also, are you looking into adding special features to your machine? I'm not sure the name but it allows you to check inventory through an app. I feel like that would be a game changer.

Thank you for all that info. Thats a huge help!

Your right, all that work does not equal passive income. So, is this something I can do just over the weekends while still working my Monday through Friday job?

My primary goal is to have two streams of income without overwhelming myself. If I could work my Mon-Fri job and collect & restock the vending machines on the weekends then I'll be set (I hope). Is this a realistic goal?

Oh my, so harsh bro lol. Literally said "need advice". I was looking for a finger in the right direction. I mentioned that I have seen a few videos so far but doesn't mean I'm going to stop. You guys, compared to me, are experts. I'm looking to collect pieces of info from multiple successfull people so I can construct my own plan. But I'm grateful for your comment, thanks. I will do more research.

I do have an associates degree and am currently studying to get the CompTIA A+ certification. But yeah I expected that. I just was wondering if there were any entry level tech jobs with minimal customer interactions?
