The vending machine sales that you might realize from
your vending machine business are hard to predict. The sales depend on
the machines that you use and where you place them. You do need to have a
business license or a seller�s permit in order to have sales through
vending machines. However, it doesn�t matter how many machines you
operate as part of your business � one permit will cover them all.
However, there are exceptions to this law. If the items that you sell
cost less than 15 cents then you don�t need a permit for your vending
machine sales.
The start up costs for vending machine businesses vary according to
the types of vending machines that you start with. For the most part,
people usually start off with one or two smaller machines, such as candy
or gumball vending machines. These are the least expensive but they do
generate a lot of vending machine business sales. You do need to look at
the cost of the machine and the cost of the candy as well as where you
plan to place the machines to try to predict the amount of vending
machine sales you might realize.
To help you understand the vending machine business sales that you
could realize with just one candy machine, first write down the cost of
the machine. If you go with a new machine, this will be about $300 and a
bag of 850 jawbreakers costs $50. When you sell the jawbreakers for 25
cents each, your total vending machine sales will be $212.50. Deduct the
40% commission that you pay to the store owner, which amounts to $85.
The rest of the money is yours, so when you deduct the cost of the
candy, you have a profit of $127.50, just from one candy vending
machine. If you buy a used vending machine, it won�t take you as long
before the sales turn into profits.
The more machines you have, the higher the vending machine sales you
will realize. For the first few months after you get started in the
vending machine business, you will be paying back the money you invested
in the vending machines you bought to get started. However, it won�t
take you long to do this and if you have all your machines in the same
location, you only have to make one stop to take out the money from the
vending machine business sales and restock the machines.
When the money you have from your vending machine sales is all
profit, then you will probably start to think of expanding by buying
more vending machines. Diversify your vending machine business and
increase your sales by investing in different types of machines and find
different locations to place them in. You can still use the same day of
the week for the servicing and you don�t have to give up your regular
job. However, as you so start to have more and more vending machine
sales, this can become your only source of income and you will be your
own boss.
