Cold calling is often seen as one of the most challenging aspects of growing a vending machine business. The idea of calling a complete stranger and pitching your services can feel intimidating. But here’s the truth. One great call can completely change your business. I’ve seen it happen firsthand.
Let me tell you a story about one particular cold call that led to a vending placement worth thousands of dollars a year.
The Call That Changed Everything
It started like any other day. I had my call list ready, my script in front of me, and a goal to land a new vending location. I dialed number after number, hearing plenty of “No, thank you” and “We’re not interested.” But I didn’t let it shake me. I knew that persistence was key.
Then, I made that call.
The business owner picked up, and I introduced myself with confidence, using the exact script we now provide to vending operators looking to grow their business. I could tell he was busy, but instead of brushing me off, he paused and said, “Tell me more.”
This was the moment I had prepared for. I quickly explained how my vending machines could provide his employees and customers with convenient snack and drink options, and how I managed everything restocking, maintenance, and customer service at no cost to him.
He had a few concerns about space and whether his employees would actually use the machines. Instead of backing down, I pivoted and tailored my pitch. I told him about similar businesses we had partnered with and the positive feedback we had received. I reassured him with data, testimonials, and a risk free trial period.
By the end of the call, he agreed to let me come by for a site visit. Within a week, we had a deal, and I placed two vending machines in his facility.
The Results? Game Changing.
That location turned out to be a goldmine. With a steady stream of employees and visitors using the machines daily, I was generating hundreds of dollars in revenue every week. Over the course of a year, that one phone call resulted in thousands of dollars in profit.
That’s the power of a strong pitch and persistence.
Why a Good Script Matters
If I had gone into that call unprepared, I probably wouldn’t have landed the deal. But because I had a proven cold calling script, I knew exactly what to say, how to handle objections, and how to steer the conversation toward a “Yes.”
