Ready to start making money with vending machines? Let's break down the two most important things you need to know - and why most people get them backwards!
The Simple Recipe for Success
- Find an Amazing Location
- Pick the Right Machine
Sounds easy, right? But here's the thing - most people rush out and buy a machine first. Big mistake. Let's show you how to do it the smart way.
Step 1: Find Your Perfect Spot 📍
What makes a perfect spot? Think about it:
- Lots of people walking by all day long (high foot traffic)
- Hungry or thirsty customers (staff, visitors, patrons)
- No other vending machines or other options nearby (no competition)

Step 2: Choose Your Money-Making Machine 🤖
Now that you've found your spot, it's time to pick the perfect machine. Ask yourself:
- Who's going to use your machine?
- What do they want to buy?
- When are they most likely to buy?
For example:
- Office workers love snacks and coffee
- Students go for energy drinks and quick meals
- Gym-goers want healthy snacks and water
Watch Out For These Common Mistakes ⚠️
- Buying a Machine Too Soon: It's like buying shoes before you know what sport you're playing
- Wrong Machine, Wrong Place: Nobody wants hot chocolate at the gym or protein bars at a kid's arcade
- Technical Headaches:
- Not enough power outlets
- Not enough space
- Hard to get the machine inside
- Poor lighting
- Unsafe access for restocking
- Choosing the Wrong Products: Know your customers before you stock up
- Settling for a Bad Location: Don't get stuck putting your machine somewhere just because you already bought it
- Moving Problems: These machines are HEAVY! Know where it's going before you buy
- Losing Money: An unused machine is like watching your money disappear
