The great investment of vending machines

Owning a home-based business has become many people's dream over the last few years. Although entrepreneurship is rising in America as well as in the UK, most small businesses don't survive their first year. While this can be due to a flawed business plan, lack of funds or low demand, there is a home-based business opportunity that has a complete and successful business model in place. Low start-up costs, rising demand and knowledgeable coaches are available to help new owners along every step of the way of this exciting business. Every day more entrepreneurs are joining the booming vending industry.

Low Upkeep, High Income

Many new business owners are overwhelmed by all the unexpected costs of running a business, even out of their own home. From advertising costs to utility bills, many home-based businesses fail simply because their profits couldn't keep up with their overhead costs.

Not only does owning vending machines release new business owners from many of the usual upkeep costs, but the products sold in vending machines have one of the highest possible "return on investment" rates. It costs roughly £30-$40 to fill a triple head vending machine with name-brand candy from a wholesaler like Sam's Club. When the vending machine is emptied, it can hold up to £300, realizing a markup of up to 400 percent or more.

Not only is there a high return on investment selling bulk candy in the vending industry, but vending machines also create a passive income. The entrepreneur is free to spend time with family, go on vacation or work another job while the vending machine is trading candy for quarters. While other businesses may require billing and invoices, vending is an all-cash business with money coming in on Day 1.

No "Selling" Required

Many vending machine owners don't consider themselves "salesmen" and don't feel comfortable approaching establishment owners to negotiate for locations. That's why Professional Locators can come in and do the placement work for them. Vending machine owners can give a Locator the ZIP codes where they would like to have their vending machines and demand final approval of each location, with the Locator's work guaranteed in writing. Once vending machine owners have gotten their feet wet, some Professional Locators are available to coach them on how to negotiate for their own locations..
