Re: Clean Machines

The first step in a successful vending business (besides killer locations of course) is cleanliness. You wouldn't believe the number of dirty candy machines around your city. Walk into any retail center and look at the machines, how long has it been since they've been cleaned? A month, 3 months, 6 months? The truth is they have probably never been as clean as the day they were dropped off. That's right, most vendors never clean their machines.


Will this really make a difference? You Bet!

What will eventually happen is the other guy will no longer have a machine there. The business owner will make them remove their machine when they see how well you service yours. Keep your machine clean! You are going to double your business and keep the best locations to yourself!

What to do: When you service your machines you should have a spray bottle with water and a fresh terry cloth rag. Spray the machine and keep wiping until it's crystal clean. Make sure the globe shines like the first day you bought it. Also, make sure your rag looks fresh, no one wants to see you clean your machine with a dirty rag!
