How Profitable Can Gumball Machines Be?

By Terrence Lee


Running your own business can be rewarding and profitable, and ultimately lead to a life of wealth and financial stability. It can also give you a sense of pride and fulfillment that is hard to get when you're working for someone else. Why wouldn't you want that? The only drawback to this is that starting your own business requires a lot of time, and a substantial amount of start up capital. If you don't have all the time in world or large amounts of cash reserves lying around, starting your own business may seem hard or impossible.

The key is that most businesses take a lot of time and money. Most businesses. Gumball machines, in addition to being an amazing feat of engineering, allow you to generate constant passive revenue, at a rate of twenty-one cents per sale. This is awesome, because gumball machines can be serviced in under an hour, and you can purchase a gumball machine for as little as seventy dollars. It's really crazy to learn of a business that you can get up and running for under one hundred dollars.

The gumball machine business plan is really quite simply. You find yourself a cheap gumball machine and buy it, then stock it full of gumballs, purchased for about 4 cents each. You place the machine somewhere and sell the gumball for a quarter each (this is really just an accepted fact of life-you don't have to convince anyone that a gumball is worth a quarter). A lot of gumball machines have a four hundred-ball capacity, and if you refill it twice, you can sell twice the capacity over the course of a month.

Some simply algebra will tell you that with good sales, you can be incredibly profitable and pull in over $100 a month. And all that can be accomplished for under one hour of work every month. You can start to see how such a business could be a key to your long-term financial goals.

Another big bonus: you can always grow your business. One hundred sixty dollars a month sounds great, but how two thousand dollars a month? Because the profits you make from one month can easily cover the cost of the next machine, for every gumball machine you operate, you can place a new machine every month. This roughly follows the Fibonacci sequence.

Because every gumball machine allows you to buy another machine after one month, the growth is exponential. If you multiply these values by your profit per gumball machine, you can make exceptional revenue after several months.. This kind of growth is really stunning, and only requires minimal work on your part.

This is not a get rich quick scheme. If you know anything about business you know that these schemes generally end in disaster, and someone is generally profiting off of your failure. This kind of business plan does require work-finding places to set up your gumball machines can be really hard, but it is worth it.
