Vending Locator, Vending Machine Locators, Vending Machine, Nationwide Locator

Description

Vending locators got their bad name from those white-linen-table-cloth "blue sky" hotel seminars, spring boarding off of "Business Opportunity" newspaper ads. Slick salesmen talking bumpkins into shelling out four times the real price of rinky-dink-mechanical venders. Act two: the promised "vend locator" places them willy-nilly and splits town, leaving the fledgling vend operator bereft of anywhere from $10,000 to $50,000. Almost all his locators prove to be losers, his machines end up rusting in the garage, his wife divorces him. Funny, but it's not funny.

Reputable location services let the vend operator come along on location solicitation calls, or at least gave him final veto rights before the machine gets placed. That way the operator can make sure the locator, paid per placement, has placed his placement zeal tempered by someone with sharper awareness of the local business community and the quirks of the people in the buildings that commonly house the vendors.

Glen Cohen, owner of World Wide Vending, Pompano Beach, Florida, has hired Sauberman's company seven times since Cohen's startup with a handful of machines. At that time, Cohen was stuck with $10,000 worth of combination soda/snack units left over from a hit-and-run scam. "That jerk delivered on only two of the five locations I'd requested. Some of the machines, he never placed; those he did had to be pulled because they were losers."
