I remember when I got my first used oak machines, I had to take them apart and clean them, but you learn, the two years later I got a carousel king, used to clean it when quick, and I just picked up a .05 cent north western and I'm going to change the color of it so not all my machines are red, but if you get use, that custom touch is all up to you or you can look to vintage colors that are rare.
Awesome videos! i've been thinking about getting into the vending business for a year now, love the honesty and positivity in your videos, they help soooo much
Great job !! Congratulations! I liked your videos real hustler. I being doing research on vending machines business also since last year . Finally jump in with the right foot, got my first location where they accepted 2 machines one snack and one soda machine, in a about 60 Aparment building 👊🏼🙏🏼
LetsJazzItUp 👍🏼 actually i used to live there 4 years ago and I knew the manager. They still have one old soda machine there that is empty most of the time and i remember my roomate complaining about he couldn’t get any drink. So I thought bout that place put it first on my list of locations and bingo !!! She accepted not just one but 2 machines . 😝 im honestly really happy about it since this is my second business. 🙏🏼👊🏼
Another thing, make sure to keep product on hand so you can place and fill at the same time. Also, did you set the candy wheel to dispense the correct amount for the correct size?
One more thing used ones usually come with problems that you need to fix. Sometimes will cost about as much as a new one to fix it. Good Luck 🍀 on your new venture. Quick tip: business cards are very handy might be a little tricky to make but handy to leave your information
I've just started watching your channel today, and they are VERY informative! Thank you! I'm just gathering information to try different money making strategies and this looks like a good doable project. Keep up the good work!
This was awesome. Best of luck to you. Btw on the peanut M&Ms was that a Gumball wheel? It just looked different than the skittles. I love bulk vending 😍
Seagate machines are great! Here's the thing. I buy from candymachines.com. Buying from them, you get the support. That's the difference between new and used, where you have no support.
i’m only on the first minute of watching, but i don’t recommend nail salons! your machine will just basically waste away there because they don’t do well. maybe you will have a different experience but i made the mistake of putting many machine in nail salons when i started out, just because they are all very easy to place(the vietemesse ladies who own the stores are, always present and they never even ask for commission) but they only make a few bucks a month. do research and only go to places with a lot of foot traffic that also has a lot of kids. busy pizza shops do really well.
Hmmm, you've only placed 1 machine in a nail salon? I have 2 and in 2 different locations. I had to go back to the salon to fix 1 after only 1 day and I already had almost $3 in it. Many kids go to nail salons and many ppl are forced to wait in one. I think in my area, it's a good choice to place.
LetsJazzItUp no, i placed one at 8 different nail salons to start, but i ended up removing 6 of them. the 2 i kept are usually my worst earners out of 40 locations so far, though they do ok sometimes.
Can you do a video about all the paperwork you need? I want to start a vending business but I don’t know all the legal steps I need to take in order to start. I also don’t want to put in all this work and effort to just end up not liking the vending world.
"Ahh don't fall apart i don't know how to put you back together!" My with my friends when they're upset lol. I love my friends just not sure how to help. God bless and good luck with your business!
This video was very helpful. I bought a bulk machine (which I had no idea that it was called that lol) on FB marketplace 4 sided. It is for my son and have been sitting on it for over a month smh...I now know what I need to do thanks to this video. I also wanted to know if you have contracts for your locations or was it just verbal agreements? I didn't hear you mention it in the video unless I missed that part.
For the gumball machines, do you have to screw them in to the ground to secure them? I'm curious, how does one prevent theft and someone deciding to just pick it up and walk away?
Buy a chain and attatch it to something that is secured to the ground or put it in a location where the establishment has a VISIBLE security camera. You could also make sure the place has a person working there within sight range of the machine. People are less likely to steal something if they know they’re being watched. They also might more likely to buy something when they’re not offended by the fact you “don’t trust them” which is made more clear by the metal chain. Making the last two (slightly) better options.
@@fallenccyar4766 Great tips thank you!!! She didn't mention it at all, but would you also suggest still having a contract agreement for the location to sign, even for a candy machine like this??
Hey Jazzel you have a guy living with you and his not interested in working with these wonderful machines oh that's sad I wish I could be living near you cause I am way interested in this business but since I don't drive it is a huge problem for me this is a good idea lookin for lacations while having the machines with you wishing you the best of luck in this business my friend I am from N.Y
@@letsjazzitup you want low volume because You do not want to fill the machines all the way up and you want to keep them somewhat on the low side that way it’s always fresh in your customers think it’s fresh
what was the location you got? i agree with the owners not being present, it’s happened a thousand times, most don’t have set schedules, come and go as they please... and the thing is, even leaving a business card, you’ll never get a call back... maybe 1 outta 100. gotta see them in person to have a chance.
LetsJazzItUp most of the times they are a waste but the good thing about a business card is, if the owner happens to be present, but wants to “think about it”(you’ll definitely run into this), it makes you look a lot more professional to be able to give them a card vs writing your info down. i have gotten a few looks from owners in the past when i mentioned that i didn’t have a card so at least i know that with one, they’ll take me more seriously.
i hope your nail salon does well. i just feel like the machine you got is too nice and expensive to go there when they usually don’t earn much, especially since you’re giving them 10% and are vending peanut m&m’s(not great profit margin). really, i feel like they are good locations for a beginner because they are easy to place there, so you can gain confidence, but definitely not long term keepers(unless you get lucky). places that have done better for me are pizza shops, laundromats, barber shops, oil change shops, kids indoor playgrounds(you definitely want to try those), ice cream shops, restaurants, sporting goods stores, etc
When you were saying you are saving receipts, are you writing the purchase off with this being a registered business or can you write off your purchases without being a registered business?
@@letsjazzitup Hey I'm really confused, I thought that when you do taxes with the LLC they only accept receipts from your Business bank account? Do you have to open a business bank account when becoming an LLC owner and have every expense flow out of that? One video i saw they said that no longer accept cash rev? of was I getting that confused with cash app? Also, what if my sister and I went into business together, and she opened up the bank account in her name? Whats your advice on that? Should my name also be on the account or just the name of business? At the end of the day I would be the business owner and the one who handles the LLC portion, my sister I was thinking could open up the business account due to her having way better credit and chance of getting approved I was thinking?
@@letsjazzitup thank you for responding. I have been binge watching you today. You have really lifted my spirits. If gumball machines is all I’m wanting to do at the moment would you recommend I get a business license first and insurance first before putting my name out there? Or test the waters first?
Start out out with a gumball machine from candymachines.com and work on your sales pitch. The best method Is to just throw yourself to the wolves with a cheap entry method like a gumball machine
LetsJazzItUp thanks sm yea I’m excited when mine comes in I’m not sure what’s the best 2 candies to put in like gum balls and what else what seems to sell most for you ?
@@letsjazzitup If someone make 100$ a month they give 10$ to the owner location? Which one is better a flat fee monthly or 10% of what someone make monthly?
I just googled everything. Also when you buy your first machine from someone locally try picking their brand for things you need to know before leaving
Good job i got my first one today to lol OMG you got the same mentality as me with this stuff....BTW sale ads on too o you machines
Yaaasss! Leveling up!!!!!! I hope you'll subscribe to see how my business turns out!!!
I'm interested in getting into vending. I love the positivity in your videos. Keep up the good work and you will go far😌💵💰📈💲💯
Keep learning about it and go out and do it! Much luck for you
It took me 24 locations to finally get my first one. BTW, great video. Keep up the good work. I love watching them!
Nice perseverance!

gosh! i really want an apartment complex. Who did you have to speak with to land that place?
Thank you! I am gonna try to switch it up! learning some cool edits today

How many machines do you have?
I have 14 machines! #blessed ☺️
@@InfiniteValue do you only do gumball machines?
Another thing, make sure to keep product on hand so you can place and fill at the same time. Also, did you set the candy wheel to dispense the correct amount for the correct size?

Hey, I just starting out. Just got my ein number and will be getting my LLC. I’m so confused with taxes though ugh. Best of luck
It's ok, you dont need to be knowledgeable on taxes, you hire people for that

Seagate machines are great! Here's the thing. I buy from candymachines.com. Buying from them, you get the support. That's the difference between new and used, where you have no support.
It's very tempting. How long have you owned your seagas from candymachines?
Haha can totally relate to using my baby face to my advantage. They think they are helping out a young high schooler but really I'm 24 lol.
I love it!!!
That’s the hardest part as most of the time manager owner are not there but when you do speak to the owner it’s a simple yes
Yes. But still not all the time. I have problems getting Asian owners to say yes.

Paperwork depends where you live

Also if you need some labels I have a link in my videos. They are well priced and the guy that owns it has top notch customer service.
I do. Labels with nutritional facts would help. I can't click on other youtube profiles on my phone. You can DM me the link on my instagram.
Hey Vending Heads how much for the labels or contact information
I have a link on all my videos. But it’s Candymachinelabels.com

Keep these vending and gumball machine vids coming 💯💯
Definently will 💪
"Stumbling in the dark"
How did you find out about the FDA law about the nutrition facts? Are there any other laws that vendors in this business need to follow as well?
Research before starting the business and following other seasoned vendors. Usually ppl who sell the machines let you know industry secrets and laws
Hey Jazzel you have a guy living with you and his not interested in working with these wonderful machines oh that's sad I wish I could be living near you cause I am way interested in this business but since I don't drive it is a huge problem for me this is a good idea lookin for lacations while having the machines with you wishing you the best of luck in this business my friend I am from N.Y
This is so awesome! Where do you purchase the machines?
Candymachines.com
I love your video's they have been so helpful!
😍😍😍
You kinda put peanut m&ms on a gumball wheel , it might not dispense properly since that wheel is for gumballs
Yes, a guy messaged me and said the same thing. I have to go back later and fix it 😢 learning the hard way lol. Thank you
"No! Don't come apart, I don't know how to put you back together!"

@@letsjazzitup I loved the journey. Great insights.
I’m 14 and I’m thinking on starting my candy machine business. Should I buy used machines first to test out or should I buy new ones
Buy used if you can find them. If not, then start with honor boxes. Honor boxes are cheaper
Is the Facebook group you’re apart of open to new members? Would you be able to share the info please? Thanks in advance 😊
You have to ask to join I believe
Also, buy a tripleshop from them for the same price you got that 2 head.
People were saying triple was bad because Its low volumn so I got the 2 head, but I do want triple.
@@letsjazzitup you want low volume because You do not want to fill the machines all the way up and you want to keep them somewhat on the low side that way it’s always fresh in your customers think it’s fresh

Agreed! I do a totally think business cards are a waste! This was a nail salon.
LetsJazzItUp most of the times they are a waste but the good thing about a business card is, if the owner happens to be present, but wants to “think about it”(you’ll definitely run into this), it makes you look a lot more professional to be able to give them a card vs writing your info down. i have gotten a few looks from owners in the past when i mentioned that i didn’t have a card so at least i know that with one, they’ll take me more seriously.

@@youtubin222 I'll definitely take your advice. Also fingers crossed for the two salons!
On the nutrition facts, where would you put them on the machine?
Who cares you’re selling diabetes
@@junior8403 the FDA cares. Probably a good idea to follow their guidelines. Plus it’s like 8 skittles. You aren’t getting diabetes off that.
Lol 8 skittles and diabetes 😂
When you were saying you are saving receipts, are you writing the purchase off with this being a registered business or can you write off your purchases without being a registered business?
I have an LLC, so it can all be written off.

Hey here watching i juse secured my first cabdy machine
I only use my Costco account for soda these days. I wish my state had Sam's Club, but buying online works fine.
Coscos sodas are cheaper?
@@letsjazzitup I don't have a Sam's club to buy them at, so it's the next best thing. Usually get them for .28-.30 cents a can.
You said not to offer commission and that was the first thing that you did for the m&ms machine 10% lol
When 1st beginning I think its ok to offer to jump start your business but once it starts don't offer commission unless you really have to
Very informative, thank you.
Costco is catered more for families and Sam’s is catered more for businesses and restaurants
Do you have to ask for permission from the business owner to install a gumball machine?
Of course love
@@letsjazzitup But why would a company owner allow someone to install a gumball machine if the gumball machine owner keeps all of the profits?
I rather buy new one atleast warrant comes with it alot used one dont come with a key
do you need a license to sell??
Yes but some people get their license later. Apply for it online

In person is better
To get your labels, go to labels.bigguycustoms.com
I like your video
Good video dont say commission just let them bring it up
Just an FYI for your next purchase choose the Gumball wheel for your vend. It’ll still come with the candy wheel and it doesn’t cost any extra!
So I can change between candy and gumballs?
LetsJazzItUp yes. Gumballs have your most profit. $22 a box on sams yields $200 profit. A box of 850 costs you about .03 a gumball!
