ANECDOTE

One Machine Changed His Career

  • Quinn landed an apartment machine that did about $1,500 in its first month and quit his corporate job after scaling to two machines.
  • He discovered vending because it required minimal presence for sales and offered steady cash flow compared to underperforming rental properties.
ADVICE

Make Cold Calls Daily

  • Cold call relentlessly and treat prospecting as a daily habit to scale quickly.
  • Combine stocking with prospecting to build momentum rather than stopping after stocking runs.
ADVICE

Be Selective Over Being Everywhere

  • Be selective with locations; more machines with low revenue beats quantity without quality.
  • Consider buying an existing route to get momentum instead of cold calling until you quit from frustration.
