Hi Wendy

No probs, if it's any consolation this business gets to us all at times in the last 2 weeks I've lost approx 8 sites, 3 of which were crackers, on Wed I was feeling pretty low but after spending the day site finding managed to add 3 new ones which should be good and tubz vending also found me one, as Barbara and the others said site finding is hit and miss however I would say that from my experience tubz vending strike rate is in terms of quality is around 70% which isn't bad, never used Barbara but I hear she's good and cheaper than tubz vending so maybe worth giving her a try especially as she will be going into it fresh if that makes sense. You really need to site yourself aswel it's not easy but gets better with time, keep at it and don't give up

Hello Pablo. :wave:
I have had a phone call from Barbara saying that you have paid for a site to be found for me.
I would like to thank you so very much for your generosity and your kindness and compassion you have shown me. :angel:
It has been a long time that I have seen such kindness being shown to another person.
if everyone in the world was like you, it would be an amazing world to live in.
I never thought for one moment such generosity would be given to me to help me. I cannot thank you enough. No amound of words can ever be enough to tell you how much it means to me.
I totally realise now how difficult things can be with the vending business, but you still took your time and went out of your way to give such kindness and help and generosity.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. This world would be a very unkind place without people like yourself in it.

Kindest regards Wendyxx :angel:

Hello Popp665 :wave: Thank you for your advice and help. I am really sorry you have had a bad time with loosing that many sites. I am not surprised you felt low. I really hope your new sites do very well for you.
I do now understand it is a hit and miss business. I have learnt alot by taking on board all the really great advice on the forum. I am so pleased that I found it on Google.
Thank you for your advice and help. I hope you are feeling a little better today.

kindest regards Wendy :angel:

Hi guys,
Just found this thread as I have been on holiday for the last couple of weeks.

Just to stick my two-penneth in, I can see how Wendy has started out with a bad impression of the vending business, and the tubz vending franchise model in particular. When I first started out in vending I researched tubz vending, Hurley's, Snack a Can, and had a good look on here before I made my mind up to part with cash. I realised pretty soon that the 'get rich quick' model that tubz vending were trying to portray, was too good to be true. I quickly realised that a £40 per month average across all sited was going to be pretty unrealistic, and that just simply re-siting wasn't going to be as quick and easy as they made out!

Although I would have to admit in this instance Wendy has been slightly unlucky with some of the sites, and tubz vending have at least tried to get her sites for all her machines, and replacements for the ones she was kicked out of. (It physically hurt admitting that)

The crux of the matter is that tubz vending bring it on themselves by over selling areas, and making out that most sites will do about £40 a month, when we all know the average in nearer £25. If they were just more honest with people to begin with, and admit that some areas are saturated, and that you will have to re-site about 50% of your 'bundle' in the first 6 months to get good solid sites, they would have a lot less disgruntled customers.

Hope Wendy makes a success of it, and becomes a regular contributor on the forum :thumbup:

When I bought a tubz vending bundle 10 years ago was old it was 20 sales per week per tower!! I went and looked at 100k BMWs when I first bought the package, I realised something wasn't quite right after about a week!!
