Is it worth paying $600 for an old gumball machine just because it sells a special energy mint? No way. They call it an energy vending machine but there is really no difference between an energy vending machine and a gumball machine except for the price. The energy vending machine sells for $600 a piece. They tell you it’s worth it because you get the retail rights to the product. Why not buy 1 machine for an outrageous price and buy the rest for $39 each? If you search for a candy vending machine on Google, you will find many candy vending machines at a very fair price.
The business opportunity company will not tell you that the energy vending machine needs small plastic capsules for the machine to sell the product. They want you to believe that the bulk candy machine is a special machine and can only sell that product. The energy market is a great market, but it’s not good for little kids. Putting a power mint in a candy machine gives kids the wrong idea. If you’re going to get into the exploding energy market, do it through a vending machine made for the energy product, not a cheap candy machine.
Finding a vending machine is not difficult. T.Pico International and Mad Dog Energy Products have partnered to bring energy products to the vending market without putting the products in small plastic capsules. The exclusive agreement protects vendors by making them the only ones in the area with a power vending machine that no one else has. Here’s an example of what happens when someone with a Mad Dog machine competes with a regular gumball machine. Both approach the same place and explain the benefits. The distributor with the candy vending machine approaches the business owner and explains the benefits of the energy product. Location except. Now the distributor enters with the exclusive energy vending machine and approaches the business owner with the same benefits. Except this time he says he offers 4 delicious flavors. Then the Mad Dog dealer notices a bunch of little plastic capsules in the trash and some that fell on the ground. He explains to the business owner that his energy machines only sell the energy product and don’t need a plastic capsule to run his machine. The business owner decides that he would like the benefit with more flavors and without the mess of plastic capsules. He also wants to save the environment, so he asks the vendor who is ruining the environment with plastic to remove his candy vending machine and tells the Mad Dog dealer to bring his. This happens all the time. If you want to break into a growing market, do it with something that no one else has.
Retail rights come with most energy companies. Remember, even with retail, it’s going to be hard to pull off as a single-product company. If you plan to retail energy products, make sure you have more than one tool in your bag of tricks. Energy products include energy drinks, energy shots, energy chews, and energy mints. If you can offer all the products to a store, it will show that you are a real company and that you are not just trying to enter the market with a single product.
Whatever happens, don’t pay $600 for a regular candy vending machine. You will be very embarrassed when you find out that you could have gotten the exact same candy vending machine for $39. The only special part of these vending machines is a gumball wheel. A $5 wheel of gum. That’s the special part you’re paying $550 more for. Don’t be silly, do your homework. Compare Mad Dog Energy products to other energy vending machines. Look for energy vending machines that no one else has. Get the edge and feel good about your investment.
