Available HERE are 12 or so very cool vending machine tee shirt designs. They are available in a wide range of sizes, not to mention types. You can get these designs in  women’s, men’s, and kid’s sizes, PLUS  you can order them as ringer shirts, sweatshirts, etc. and several different color backgrounds.

The designs are rendered in full color by a professional graphics artist- not somebody’s kid  brother in MS Paint. Some of them are somewhat bizarre, but still cool. Such as this gumball machine t-shirt: It has a weird little gumball machine with its  tongue hanging out:

Pretty odd, eh? But it’s an eye catcher. You can get them plain like this but you can also add your company logo to the front or back.  

Get this an LOTS of other designs here: http://www.mega-vending.com/vending-machine-service-business-tshirts-designs.htm

These Seaga SS 3200 are also very compact – they actually can sit on a counter top, instead of taking up a lot of space like a full size soda vending machine does. That also means that you can easily pull a machine that’s not profiting enough, and transport it to some other location.

Where’s a good place for these machines? Think college students cramming for exams, young working people trying to meet a deadline, and health nuts needing a a boost when they hit “the wall”. So- college campuses and dorms, high-traffic office buildings, and gyms are good places for the machines. They are bright and modern looking, catching people’s attention and saying “buy me”!

Normally these energy drink vending machines sell for thousands of dollars each- but here are 3 for sale in Rancho Santa Margarita, for only $1,725 for ALL. That’s just crazy. It’s a really good opportunity for those who think they can get into the right location with them. 

Why sodas and not snacks? Lots of reasons. The first is simply that beverages sell more than snacks in general. People get thirsty more than hungry, and as long as you have a water, a Gatorade-type drink, diet and regular soda, and something fruity in there, they will buy. Secondly, you can put most drink vending machines in outdoor locations, because they are rated for outdoor use, and refrigerates sodas are not harmed by heat. Snack machines (except for the super-expensive ones) as a rule are not rated for outdoor use, and many snacks will melt, expire, etc.

Finally, soda machines can be purchased on many budget-friendly levels. You can buy a new machine (if your credit is good, you may even qualify to make payments.) that has a full warranty; you could also buy professionally refurbished machines with a 1 year parts warranty; or you could buy a used soda vending machine for next to nothing- it won’t have a warranty, but the vast majority of soda machine manufacturers are still in business so you can readily get parts. These days, vending machines are built very user-friendly- you should be able to install most parts yourself.

One more thing: Soda machines are one of those things you can order AFTER you’ve secured a location. This decreases the liklihood that you will  get stuck with a machine you have no location for.

Once again, soda vending machines can be quite a lucrative start up-  just make sure you get your product from a retails store where you can buy in bulk, such as Sam’s club or Costco, keep your products as cheap as you can and still make a profit, and have a good variety available.

So first ask yourself: Bulk Vending or Snack / Soda Vending? For part 1, we’ll focus on that cheapest and oldest of vending machines- BULK CANDY.

For a small start up in bulk vending, what you need is about 10 bulk candy machines and acces to a Sam’s Club, Costco, or other “buy in bulk” retail store.
Get your machines used- bulk candy machines are available HERE  for ridiculously low prices- some of  which are new in box. Why? Because people get caught in a biz op, buy too many for too much and with useless bells & whistles, and then have to sell for a song. Don’t mess with warranties and other gimmicks. It’s just a little mechanical machine made of plastic and metal- not a high-tech cold food machine that takes credit cards! If something breaks on your bulk candy machine, just pirate the part off of another machine.

What’s out there? On the cheaper end is the Vendstar 3000, which has 2 selections, and  is very lightweight;  on the higher end you have things like U-Turn Terminators or Eliminators which are mostly metal and have 8 selections.

Avoid locators like the plague and ask your local businesses if you can put your machine in their location, ask what they’d like in the machine, and keep it clean and filled. If it’s not making enough money after awhile, just pick it up, stick it in your car, and move it elsewhere. One good way to get your foot in the door with businesses is to have a sharp vending business card. No, don’t print it off your computer- go to http://businesscardsthatwork.com/index.php and order 250 of their great-looking vending business cards. Be sure not to look like a scallywag when you go into businesses, even if it’s a nightclub.

Where do you get product? Don’t buy your candy off the internet until you’ve got a larger operation, and a registered business with a tax I.D. number- you’ll have to buy too much, plus pay shipping. Just go to the aforementioned stores and buy the most popular bulk candy – M&M’s, Skittles, Reese’s Pieces, etc. Only buy enough to fill about 1/2 the machines almost all the way up- you don’t want to be left with a ton of quickly expiring product.

And that’s about it. The best thign about bulk cnady machines is their simplicity, both in running the business, and the machines themselves. Lots of parents buy bulk candy machines for their kids as a way to promote budgeting skills and responsibility.  Don’t overcomplicate things and you’ll have a great time and maybe make some money.

Plexus Slim - Easy Weight Loss Money Maker

I’m not usually one for doing the MLM thing, but this one grabbed my attention after hearing many first-hand testimonials.  Not only did I hear them, but seeing the results is what sold me!  The company is still small with about 8000 reps and is still unknown in many parts of the country. 

It’s an all-natural weight loss drink mix. Tastes similar to pink lemonade. Mix 1 drink per day in water and go.  Too simple, right; but the results are amazing!  Having seen many people at church dropping 10, 20, 40+ pounds in just 4 to 8 weeks, I began to pay attention.  Plexus Slim was taking my area like wildfire, and those using it had a real excitement when they shared how it had changed their lifestyles!

Not only were they losing weight, but they were getting off medicines they’d taken for years. It was helping diabetics and all types of issues.  Some even had their doctors taking it because the doctors couldn’t believe the difference in their patients.

Point is, Plexus Slim works, and it sells itself. No kidding, my entire church and soon the entire town was in a buzz over this stuff! Obviously, it was going to be big!  I wish I had known about it sooner, but I ignored the first reports as just attempts to sell something. Once several friends had lost 20+ pounds, I realized that this wasn’t just some new dieting gimmick.

In a very short period, everyone was making money just by answering others who would ask them, “How did you do it?”  However, the real testimony was in the other health benefits they were having and confirmed by doctors.  For an MLM, Plexus Slim has a great commission plan. 

Anyway, this could be a hot item for vending machines: can you imagine an office building full of women!?!  Of course, men are taking it too, but the slim little packet (shown below) can fit in your small coils with no problem.  And, they’ll drink it every day!  One is suggested, but many people drink two per day.

Actual size is 1.37"w x 4.8"h x 0.15"d

You can order Plexus Slim online or just learn more about it at http://www.coffeeasap.com/plexus-slim-natural-weight-loss.htm   This is one of our sister sites (same company) so feel free to call with any questions 601-749-8424 ext 10. We can show you how to make money with this amazing product. After all, who doesn’t need to lose weight!

Having a machine that is set up this way saves you money- because they don’t have the complicated electronics inside that the larger machines have. This year model even has one bottle lane.

Another good point of these machines is that they are smaller, making them welcome in more locations.

These are available for only $700 each, in Woodbridge, Virginia. See this deal and many others at USEDvending.com .
