<p>High fashion and <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Refill-Vending-Supplies-C35.aspx">bulk  vending products</a> would seem to have little in common, except that one of  today’s best-selling <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Temporary-Tattoo-Flat-Vending-Refills-C45.aspx">temporary  tattoo</a> lines is based on the edgy designs of Ed Hardy, the California  tattoo artist whose incorporation of Japanese tattoo artistry into American  styles led to a variety of successful ventures in haute couture and celebrity  marketing.</p>
<p>The Ed Hardy brand is now going into the mainstream. You’ll  see toys in the near future with the Ed Hardy license, as well as an energy  drink, lighters, and of course our <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Ed-Hardy-Celebrity-Temporary-Vending-Tattoos-P1747C45.aspx">Ed  Hardy Temporary Vending Tattoos</a>.</p>
<p>Licensing high-profile fashion designers is different from  other brands brought into the bulk vending industry. Not only does the Ed Hardy  brand enjoy high recognition on the part of consumers of all ages, but the  clothing line itself acts as a promotional vehicle, extending the lifespan of  the vendible merchandise by increasing the perception of its value. </p>
<p>The longevity of couture-inspired themes and products are  due in part to the nature of the fashion business. Vendible product producers  continually refresh their brands with new designs and promotional efforts. The  Ed Hardy license has been gaining momentum for more than four years now.</p>
<p>Is fashion in bulk vending’s future as a standard licensing  segment? Industry skeptics point to the fact that the Ed Hardy brand and its <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Temporary-Tattoo-Flat-Vending-Refills-C45.aspx">temporary  tattoo</a> designs are particularly well suited to bulk vending, with its  traditional <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Temporary-Tattoo-Flat-Vending-Refills-C45.aspx">tattoo</a> segment. Even if young consumers didn’t know who Ed Hardy was, they liked his  designs. In <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Temporary-Tattoo-Flat-Vending-Refills-C45.aspx">bulk  vending tattoo</a> designs, it is the graphic elements that add value. Ed Hardy  may just be part of a larger trend in the fashion industry that makes it  particularly well suited to <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Refill-Vending-Supplies-C35.aspx">bulk  vending products</a>.</p>

<p>With a Major League Baseball game ( MLB ) being played every day this summer attendance is high and royalty is rampant. So the popularity of <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/MLB-Baseball-Prismatic-Vending-Stickers-P1756.aspx">MLB Baseball Prismatic Vending Stickers </a>is the highest it has ever been.</p>
<p>Whether a fan of the Dodgers, Diamondbacks, Cubs or Astros or any of the other 26 teams displaying their logos is important to any avid baseball fan and they are now available on vending stickers.</p>
<p>The MLB, which was founded in 1869, is divided into two leagues, the American and National Leagues. There are 14 teams in the American League and 16 teams in the National League. Each league is then divided into three divisions, the East, Central and West. Each team plays 162 season games starting in early April and ending in October. Then come the playoffs and finally the World Series that determines which league has the best team for the year.</p>
<p>Loyalty is the name of the game for baseball fans and what better way to show team support than by displaying the team&#8217;s logo whether at a game or at home. And it&#8217;s proven that baseball fans back their favorite team whether they are winning or losing.</p>
<p>These bright, colorful MLB logo stickers are available for every team and they are perfect for putting on shirts, hats, or even on baseball mitts. They come from <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Default.aspx">candymachines.com </a>and are ready for sticker or tattoo vending machines. Each sticker is in an individual cardboard folder which makes them easy to load. Each column of the vending machines takes one box of 300 stickers, so be sure to keep that in mind when you place your order. You can also get a colorful display card for added visibility.</p>

Vending as a second income</p>
<p>With the economy in a down turn and the price of everything going up, everyone is feeling the money pinch. Even folks who still have a steady job are looking around for more income.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a stress free second income with unlimited potential the vending machine business may be just the right answer. For more than a 100 years bulk vending has been a source of income for people who like to make their own rules.</p>
<p>Actually bulk vending was popular in Europe years before it caught on in the United States . The first commercial coin operated machines here were placed on the subway platforms in New York and stocked with Tutti Frutti gum. It wasn&#8217;t until 1907 that the round candy coated gumballs were introduced to vending machines.</p>
<p>Today vending machines are found everywhere, and there are an enormous variety of items to put in the machines, all at reasonable prices. You can choose from tattoos, stickers, sodas, gumballs, toys, snacks, and chocolates, just to name a few.</p>
<p>Bulk vending is one of the least expensive and easiest small businesses to start up, and</p>
<p>there are numerous advantages to starting this kind of business. The gross margins can be quite high, the machines are generally inexpensive, the price of the vend can be changed easily, there are a large variety of machines and products, everything is portable and easy to service, and the big advantage is that you pick the hours you work and how many. In other words you are your own boss.</p>
<p>As with any business you&#8217;ll need to do your homework. Researching locations for the most possible foot traffic, and planning which products will do best where is a big part of your homework. Then contacting the business owners on having your machines in their establishments is most important. And finally deciding which machines and which products you want to vend.</p>
<p>Nowadays there&#8217;s an enormous variety of vending machines to choose from. If you want to go high tech there are flashy machines called <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/4-Whirler-Gumball-Machine-P129C48.aspx">Whirlers </a>, and there are machines with anywhere between <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Six-Vending-Machine-Step-Stand-P161C48.aspx">1 and 10 heads </a>so you can vend a variety of products in the same location. Or you might be attracted to the <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Foosball-Soccer-Gumball-Machine-P220C33.aspx">interactive game machines </a>and <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Tractor-Time-Crane-P1206C33.aspx">Crane machines </a>that are appealing to every age. Plus some machines are <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Barrel-Machine-Single-Stand-P155C48.aspx">free standing </a>while others sit on a <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Single-Vending-Machine-P201C48.aspx">counter top. </a></p>
<p>You can see the wide selection of machines at <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Default.aspx">candymachines.com </a>. While you&#8217;re there be sure to check out their <a href="http://www.candymachines.com/Vending-Packages-C108.aspx">business vending packages. </a><em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So you took the plunge and you now have your very own <a title="Bulk Vending Machines at Candymachines.com" href="http://www.candymachines.com/Candy-Gumball-Toy-Vending-Machines-C12.aspx" target="_blank">vending machines</a> on location. Now, you have to service them! The first month is always both exciting and nerve-racking because you can count how much or how little money you have.</p>
<p>If you discover a machine has done poorly in its first month (50 cents would be considered poor), don’t pull it just yet! Re-evaluate the placement within the location: is it where most customers would travel? Is it hidden or next to <a title="Packaged candy for sale at Candymachines.com" href="http://www.candymachines.com/Packaged-Candy-C52.aspx" target="_blank">packaged candy</a>? (many people would rather just buy a bag of candy and take it with them then dig out a quarter and have to hold candy in their hand. If this is the case and there’s no other place to put the machine, consider offering dixie cups on the top of the machine with a sign encouraging customers to take one to place their candy in). If placement seems fine, consider the <a title="Bulk Candy at Candymachines.com" href="http://www.candymachines.com/Bulk-Candy-C9.aspx" target="_blank">candy</a> choice. Are you offering a sugary candy in a gym or chocolate in a warm environment? You might want to switch out candy to a more universally popular selection and see if that works. If you aren’t offering <a title="Bulk Gumballs at Candymachines.com" href="http://www.candymachines.com/Bulk-Refill-Gum-Gumballs-C1.aspx" target="_blank">gumballs</a>, you should also consider offering them locations such as restaurants or warmer places, since they will last longer than chocolate.<br />
After evaluating the cash flow of your machines, it’s time to do the rest of servicing your machine. The bottom line is not to attract attention to yourself. The smoother you can ease in and out of there, the more the owner of the location will appreciate and tolerate your machine there. When filling the machines, take your time so you don’t spill candy everywhere. Many a vending operator has been reprimanded or asked to pull a machine because they spilled candy and either didn’t pick it up or let it happen repeatedly. It is important to show the owner of the location that you respect their business and their customers by removing all signs that you were there. Pick up any candy on the floor and it never hurts to pick up any trash you see on the floor nearby while you’re at it, even if it didn’t come from your machine. ALWAYS USE GLOVES WHEN HANDLING CANDY, even if you don’t touch it directly. That’s just good sense. To build good relations, you can always give free leftover candy to the employees at the location. They’ll keep an eye on your machine for you if you’re nice to them!<br />
You should also bring cleaning wipes to wipe down your machine and remove dust or dirt from it. You should service your machines AT LEAST once a month. Make sure your machines are never empty for long. Don’t let your machine become an eyesore in the location or you’ll be asked to pull it, or worse, the owner will do it themselves and throw it out. Your goal should be to never give the owner a reason to have to contact or talk with you about any problems with the machine. If they forget about the machine because it’s so well-maintained, you’ve succeeded. It will still pull in money and you can build strong relationships with business owners because of your dedication to running a professional business.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many vending route operators donate a portion of their profits to charities in order to make it easier to secure locations and encourage location owners to allow them in. It’s a twist on commissions vending, where the route operator pays the location owner a percentage of sales each month.</p>
<p>If you choose to do “charity vending,” you first need to find a charity you’d like to support. Simply call to places you’d be interested in helping out and ask if they have programs for vendors to donate money, and if they have stickers available to place on the machines. It’s always going to be easier to place a machine if it’s a local charity, so that’s something to consider. Also, don’t assume a charity will allow vendors to use their name on their machines. Some don’t, due to unscrupulous vendors in the past or liability issues. That’s why it’s important to call before you use their name on anything!</p>
<p>It’s also important to make it clear to the location owner that you are an independent (for-profit) business and that you just give a portion of your profits to x charity each month. Don’t be tempted to mislead them and say you’re part of the charity.</p>
<p>Some business owners will be curious to know how much you donate each month. A good percentage is 10-15%, which you can tell them, but let them know that varies each month depending on how all of your machines do.</p>
<p>No matter what, please don’t mislead either the charity or the location owner. It’s okay not to share everything, but if they ask, please be upfront and honest. There have been many dishonest people lying about their affiliation or donation amounts who ruin the experience for everyone else, so please don’t join them!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">How to Get Your Own Locations</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">Getting new customers is simple. You go door to door to every business on a street. Make your visiting fun! You will be most effective if you take a 15-minute break every hour. Make your first call at 9AM and your last call at 5PM. Take an hour for lunch, from 12:30-1:30. Take time to enjoy meeting people and looking at all the fun stuff they sell. Enjoy yourself. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">Some of the people you meet will be having bad days — don’t take their rudeness to heart. Remember. you get what you ask for, so ask for what you want! First, you want to speak with the owner or manager. Second, you want permission to put in a machine.</span></p>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">The secret words are:  “Will it be alright for me to place a gumball/candy machine here” They will say “OK,” “No,” or ask a question. Over the long haul you will get a “Yes” every 15-25 doors.</span></div>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">When you are asked to pick up a machine never bring it back to storage. Carry it to the neighboring businesses until you find it a new home. If they say “No room”, ask, “What will I have to do to get you to want to find room?”  If they say, “We already have a machine,” ask, “Would you like more variety?”  If they say ‘We had one, but it didn’t work out,” then you ask, “What was the issue?”</p>
<p>Ask lots of questions and then decide what incentive to offer. Some examples are: a 30-day trial, revenue sharing, or helping a charity. The key to making the sale is to ask mostly questions and never stop visiting potential customers. As you work, you will hear a vast number of “No’s,” but the occasional “Yes” will produce income for years.</p>
<p>Everything is difficult before it gets easy. Re-solicit every six months because the prospects business is always changing. Once you find the way to make visiting prospective customers fun you will never struggle financially again!</p>
<p> </p>

<p>Just buying vending machines does not equal income-producing power. Income producing power comes from getting your machines on location and then keeping your machines on location. Businesses fail, change ownership, move, merge, remodel, etc. You will always want new customers. Find new customers by going door to door through local businesses, talking to decision makers who are willing to have vending machines.</p>
<p>Although many operators use locating services, be cautious of dependence on locators for the success of your business. A locator can help you get machines placed, but whoever fills the machines needs to know how to acquire replacement locations. Otherwise, your machines may eventually end up in storage.</p>
<p>Some ways to find good locators are to ask vending suppliers, look for ads, or search on the Internet.  Ask for references and check them out. Good locators stay booked up weeks in advance so be prepared to work with their schedule. Be advised, when working with a locator you need to understand the reality of the locator’s market place. Good locators have many vendors wanting to buy their time. Consequently, they only work with the vendors they like.</p>
<p>Finally, find the time to spend at least one day working with the locator as part of your education to learn how locating is done. You will find getting your own new customers is simple work that anyone can do.</p>
