Summer Time Means Vending and Making Money!

It is undeniable, finally, that summer is here. How do I know this you ask? Well for starters, the birds are back, but more importantly, so are the summer festivals.

Vending time is upon us.  Summerfest, Independence Day, carnivals, concerts and picnics are here and that means large concentrations of families out enjoying the evening together. This is a perfect situation to go out and start vending Glow and LED Novelties or other items.

Now some are asking “what do you mean by vending?” This is the perfect time to go raise tons of money for your club, sports team, firefighters brigade, fraternal order of the Police, or just even yourself!

Think about it: $50 of product can net you over $500 in an hour. If you think I’m exaggerating then you’ve never done it. Why else do you think places like Disney World, or Six Flags hire tons of people to go out and sell inexpensive, fun items?

The key to this, besides getting local government approval (i.e. a vending license), is to make sure that what you’re selling is a good deal and that the kids are happy when they get the items. The best situation you can be in is for your customers, and their parents, to be happy to see you and get something that they’ll love. LED items or Glow sticks are perfect for this. They entertain and occupy the kids while not annoying anyone else. Stay away from noisemakers! Do this and you’ll have plenty of repeat business to keep your pockets full all summer.
