How do I choose locations for my vending machines? |
As always we are flexible and ready to help. We do what you need. Have your own places, go get them!

How do I get started? How many machines, products, etc... do I need? |
It depends on how much money people want to make. Vending is truly a numbers game: the more Refreshment Centers you have, the more money you'll make. Those hungry to earn, start off with more and grow quickly.

How do I stock my vending machines with product? |
Keep it local and think smart. While we would love to sell the products to you, the best place for you to purchase your product - for freshness and the best price - is your local Sam's Club, Costco, BJ's or any other discount buying club. United Marketing will also supply you with legitimate wholesalers where you can buy name-brand product direct if you so choose.

If I just sell snacks and drinks will I make good money? |
Yes, the profit margins are incredible! So incredible that name-brand products are advertised for you with multi-million dollar budgets by manufacturers like Pepsi, Coca Cola, Red Bull, M&M/Mars, Hershey's, etc. They work for you!

Is it important to include energy drinks in my vending machines? |
Energy drinks are an exploding, multi-billion dollar market. Time to take your piece of that. Plus, it makes an employer want more and more of your product at his location as they provide tired employees with a burst of energy for increased productivity. In addition to vending all the major bottled water & sports drinks, your Refreshment Centers will also vend 8oz-16oz cans of energy drinks. You have it all with an energy drink vending machine!

Other than the machine itself, will I need to purchase any other equipment for my vending machine business? |
Not in the beginning. Use the vehicle you already own. But, as your business grows, you might find you need the tax deduction and the space of a company truck or van to offset all your profits.

Should I hire any employees for my vending machine business? |
One person can easily service scores of machines on only a part-time basis. You are the boss of you and, when your business grows enough, you can choose to expand and become the boss of others too, but that is your choice.

What are the tax advantages in starting a vending machine business? |
More than you can imagine! The Economic Stimulus Act of 2008 has almost doubled the deduction cap to $250,000! You read right - as an entrepreneur in new equipment, you may write off up to $250,000 during 2009. Amounts above the $250,000 are deducted as depreciation over seven years, or you can choose to deduct the entire purchase over seven years. Additionally, you as an entrepreneur are allowed tax deductions for expenses incurred in generating and collecting revenues and in operating and servicing your equipment. Check with your accountant or CPA to be sure you take advantage of all the deductions in operating your new vending business.

What is the optimal vending machine choice to maximize my cash flow? |
More choices, more selections, more money - simple. But, it is actually a complex formula designed by economists and our research team. Too few choices and customers walk away dissatisfied, not having found something to their liking. Too many choices and you risk having stale, unsold product - as the "law of diminishing returns" proves. We have found that 20 Snack & 6 Drink selections are the ideal number of options for most consumers, providing them with enough to choose from but not making the selection overwhelming.

What products are available to place in my vending machines? |
Partner with our research team and taste experts who have crafted the best tips and strategies based on the types of locations your Refreshment Centers are in - to make choices based on customer knowledge. We can tell you what to sell to 100s of hungry, thirsty college students vs what to sell to mechanics with big bucks and big appetites in an auto repair shop. Selling is what it is all about.
