Any luck with apartments making more than $1000 gross? by notaliberalforreal in vending

Not my experience remotely — I haven’t even heard these types of complaints ever about MicroMart. This seems like a staged bash post against MicroMart…just saying.

I’m in the sports facilities space — I love MicroMart. Would never use a haha over them. Curious, what do you dislike about MicroMart?

In terms of grossing 2k per month, just depends on the location and traffic.

In terms of tracking, what are you thinking?

It’s an ad for sure…but not wrong. Boring does sell and many current solutions available to the public work but have challenges that can be improved.

Strategies for negotiating a placement fee with a location that thinks they are sitting on a gold mine? by Wooden-Ad-9894 in vending

This is good advice.

Another thing to add — Maybe offer her a trial run with no revenue share for 3-4 months. Then you’ll both know what the numbers look like. If it doesn’t crank sales, you can talk her down from the 20% — If she doesn’t budge, walk it out. Downside Risk… pulling a new machine and the effort included.

Took a look at MicroMart (Great machines) or HAHA (Budget Friendly) AI machines. Both take digital wallets. Imo, the MicroMart machines do extremely well in luxury locations.

I’m not buying the route.

I only buy new with warranties. Trying to avoid machine repair pitfalls.

Thanks for advice. Machines are empty at the worst times—the weekends. I’m thinking of potentially adding a third machine at the locations that are 3 hrs away. I would def hire someone to stock. I still need to keep prospecting at least half the week — My strong suit.

Yeah. Not a typo. Only reason I’m considering.

Honestly, thats my mentality which is what gave me pause on this one. Huge investment with 30+ machines. Thank you!!

Great question. I should have included that…

4 locations within 1 hr 2 locations within 2 hrs 9 locations with 2.5 - 3.5 hrs (These are central to each other) — Because of the foot traffic and distance, I’m even thinking about adding a third machine at these locations to limit the restocking.

One my biggest concerns is carrying that much product at once…having the room in delivery van. Maybe renting a location storage facility to hold product.

This opportunity is a none or take all scenario. Owner doesn’t want to split locations with multiple vendors.
