Hi Folks,
Sorry if I posted in the wrong place/cross a line with this question.
I have inherited a few Beaver machines and was thinking about getting a them in a few sites and seeing if I can make a go of it.
I have run several businesses before (inc. food businesses) so know the score with the PLI, food hygiene etc.. but my question I suppose is a daft one.
How does it work with the sites? Do I hire them to the venue? Do they just let me put them there? Do they take a cut of sales?
I took a good look around the forum here but was unable to see any advise or startup guides, any help would be amazing.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Startup Help?
you do whatever you like lol it's your business there's no prescription!
Most people offer a % of takings to the site or donate % to charity if the site isn't fussed
It's also possible to just do it as a free service. Very rare that sites will pay you as it's an increasingly competitive business.

Cheers for the reply! I assumed it was a percentage but I just needed a confirmation I suppose haha!part-time-operator wrote:you do whatever you like lol it's your business there's no prescription!

Charity is a good idea, I guess a few places would be up for that.
Thanks for the help mate

Re: Startup Help?
Start low on commissions when offering to see if there interested and then obviously up it dependent on what you can get away with average commission for sweets is 20%
The hardest part about the business is finding the sites.
