Agreed, but this was not the mentality before this forum was available for operators to talk to each other.
There's still 1 franchisor that has their franchisees over a barrel and happily charge more for their stock than anywhere else.

You natural response would be to be annoyed, but it's the ultimate compliment when a competitor copies either your idea or text.
It shows that they think what you have written is better than theirs.
(who was it)?

I think they should at least have the decency to put it in their own words! It's not that difficult to type!

I wouldn't worry about it Glenn, I get it frequently in our Rodeo Wrecks business. It used to annoy me but now I figure if they have to copy me then they are no threat really.

I know somebody who has converted a pringles machine to vend tennis balls in Ireland so it can be done!Jon123 wrote:I tell you what you might have found a little gold mine there, They wouldn't fit in a pringle pot but they almost definately would a bouley toy machine. They would make a fortune in all good tennis clubs / leisure centres with indoor tennis facilities.
One to think about.
Cheers
Jonny

Re: Are tubz vending followers or leaders?
Well in answer to your question i think they are all followers?
From my little knowledge of the mini can market i got the impression it was Snack a can that started the mini can concept? So by definition they are the "trail blazers" and the rest are followers.
