Screenly and SMRT1 Technologies are working to enable the next evolution of vending machines. Instead of vending machines being a uni-dimensional interface where customers can only purchase products, software and hardware integrations will allow vending machines to become interactive and dynamic customer acquisition channels. SMRT1 Technologies is building its platform to be the “WordPress of vending machines.” The goal of SMRT1 Technologies is to provide vending software and hardware that can offer a variety of custom plug-and-play solutions for the needs of any vending machine operator. With the help of API digital signage from Screenly, SMRT1 hopes to build a distributed advertising network that vending machine operators. By displaying ads, operators can add advertising revenue to their business’s revenue streams.Once you have your display screen, media player, and digital sign management software, you will need to mount the display onto your vending machine. This task is something you will want to be careful about to prevent damage to both your vending machine and your digital sign. You will need to ensure that your digital sign is secure enough to minimize the risk of theft. Our friends at SMRT1 Technologies, a company that integrates touchscreen interfaces with existing vending machines, are experts regarding connecting digital screens to vending machines. Read on to learn more about SMRT1 Technologies and how they may be useful for your business’s needs.Digital signs provide an excellent medium through which you can make your vending machines come alive. Most vending machines have underutilized space on the two sides adjacent to the front of the machine. The front exterior of the machine is a plate of glass that customers use to view the products. However, the other two sides are either empty or wrapped in a printed sign. This scenario is less than ideal, as these two sides can be much more engaging interfaces for customers.

Another interesting use case involves integrating eye-gaze technology into the vending machine to provide customized user experiences. Eye-gaze technology can detect what parts of the screen the customer looks at the most. Areas of the screen are, of course, associated with a particular product in the vending machine. Vending machines can capture this eye-gaze data to provide a custom experience for each customer. For example, if users focus on a particular product on the screen, the vending machine can automatically display user testimonials for this product.Touch screens from SMRT1 Technologies run off of a powerful Intel processor. This processing power allows SMRT1 Technologies to connect their vending machine interfaces with various data inputs and sensors. Vending machines can then use this data to produce a fantastic experience for customers.

Vending machine operators can set up digital signs on each of these two sides. If the back of the machine is not against a wall, operators can set up digital signs on three sides of the machine. This setup allows machine operators to transform their vending machine into a multi-directional, attention-grabbing digital display. This enhancement is beneficial to your business as it helps attract more customers to your vending machine. Bright digital signs with a slideshow of images or video content will capture customer attention and attract customers to your vending machine.For enhanced vending machine experiences, operators must ensure that their non-touch digital signs can also integrate with data from sensors and databases associated with each vending machine. When selecting your digital signage management software, check to see if the management software allows API integrations for vending machines. This feature enables your digital sign content to change automatically based on predetermined input parameters. To learn more about API integrations with Screenly, check out our page on digital signage APIs.

For example, Bluetooth and NFC readers can track the unique IDs of nearby customers. If a customer purchases an item at a vending machine, the operator’s backend can associate this data with the unique ID of the customer’s Bluetooth or NFC enabled device. When the customer walks by a vending machine from the same operator, this second vending machine can display an advertisement for the user’s previously purchased product. Of course, laws on storing and tracking the unique IDs of users vary by locality. However, this ability for vending machines to target advertisements to a specific customer is both useful and exciting.

You will also need management software for your digital sign media player. Great digital sign management software allows you to change, update, and schedule your digital sign content from anywhere using a web interface on your laptop. This feature enables users to avoid time-consuming trips to each media player whenever they want to make content changes. This feature is particularly important for digital signs in the vending machine industry, as an operator’s vending machines may be across a city. To learn more, check out Screenly’s digital signage management software. In the past few decades, digitalization and the internet have upended many industries. New technology has allowed entrepreneurs to reduce inefficiencies, reimagine workflows, introduce new products, and create entire markets from scratch. However, some industries have been affected by these changes less than others. One sector that is ripe for disruption by technological innovation is the vending machine industry. Below we will explore this opportunity for innovation. Specifically, we will discuss how you can use digital sign technology to improve and grow your vending machine business. Digital signs are also useful for machine operators as the devices can turn your vending machine into much more than a drink and snack dispenser. With a digital sign or multiple digital signs, machine operators can serve third-party advertisements to nearby foot traffic. This ability enables vending machines to become an innovative advertising platform rather than just a snack machine. Vending machine snack foods are notoriously low-margin, and digital signs allow machine operators to capture a high-margin revenue stream from advertising income.To get started with digital signs and touch screen for vending machines, check out Screenly’s digital signage and SMRT1 Technologies’ vending machine solutions.

Next, you’re going to need a media player for your digital sign. A media player stores, processes, and renders content to your digital sign. When you select your media player, you’ll want to make sure that it can display high resolution, 1080p HD images and videos. You should also make sure that the media player can display this content vertically, as this orientation works best with the dimensions of most vending machines. Lastly, you should make sure that the media player is low cost so that you can deploy multiple digital signs across numerous vending machines. The Screenly Player meets each of those requirements. The Screenly Player contains a Raspberry Pi minicomputer, and you can purchase it together with all necessary connection cables on Amazon.Each touchscreen costs about US $4,500, and non-touch digital sign displays cost between US $2,500 and US $3,000. This price point is much lower than many existing touchscreen vending solutions requiring operators to purchase a new screen and a new vending machine. Using an existing vending machine is a crucial differentiator between SMRT1 Technologies and other touchscreen solutions. If machine operators must scrap their current vending machines to implement touchscreen technology, the economics do not make sense and operators lose out on the advantages of vending machine digital signage.

SMRT1 Technologies allows operators to quickly and affordably transform their existing vending machines into state-of-the-art retail channels. With SMRT1 Technologies, machine operators can install a touchscreen interface for a vending machine in under an hour. This interface equips a vending machine with a dynamic display that companies can use to increase sales and delight customers.

As customers have sought new payment methods, technologies have needed to change. And these have brought new opportunities for smart vending systems too.

Customers want more. These days, customer experience matters just as much as the product itself – if not more so. And as customers have demanded a better vending experience that delivers extra value, the vending industry has risen to the challenge.Live marketing. With smart touchscreens, operators can deliver advertising based on the time of the day, the time of year, or the weather – to engage customers and drive more sales.COVID-19 has sparked a growth in demand for impersonal transactions and packaged food.

Contact Naturals2Go today to see how you could benefit from starting a profitable vending machine business.Snack vending machines also allow for more variety – which is great for consumers but does mean vendors will have to visit the machine more often to restock popular items. Pricing must also be strategic in order to make money. Let’s say you operate a cold beverage machine and sell products for $2 each but the machine is in a less-than-ideal location and only gets 10 sales per day. That machine’s net income is $20 per day. If the sodas cost you $1.50 each, your profit is only 50 cents per item and your overall profit is only $5 per day. To make your profits worthwhile, you’d have to own hundreds, if not thousands of soda machines in much better locations. Soda and cold beverage machines do require refrigeration, which can make them slightly more expensive to operate, but they are the easiest type of machine to stock as selection can be minimal and profit margins can be strong, which priced correctly.

Vending machines can be a great investment when you approach the business strategically. Like any other business, it pays to learn about the industry before jumping in and to have a mentor and someone supportive to help you learn the ropes so that you can turn a profit.Vending machines dispense food and beverages to people on the go. The products that are typically sold in vending machines are not big-ticket items (except for car vending machines, of course), so people often wonder if vending machines are profitable. The fact is, vending machines can be highly profitable, if a business is structured in the right way.

Americans spend about $27 per person per year on items from vending machines and the average transaction is around $1.75. The typical vending machine generates over $75 of revenue each week and over $300 per month. Some vending machines generate much less than this, while some vending machines generate much, much more. The more well-placed, well-stocked machines an owner operates, the greater their profits and revenue.Soda vending machines are some of the most popular in the market and in warm weather, the demand for cold beverages climbs exponentially. In warm climates, people will buy cold drinks year-round. In seasonal climates, demand can drop in the fall and winter months.The fact is that the vending machine business can be very profitable, but like any other business you have to put in the work in order for it to be successful.

There will always be a place for “junk food” machines in our country, but now is an excellent time to break into healthier product lines, especially because the profits on those lines can be much greater than other foods and beverages. Industry figures consistently show that the sale of healthy snack items outpaces junk food, and that the gap between the two widens every year.However, if you are willing to learn about the industry, listen to advice and put in the work necessary at the beginning to make the business work long-term, then vending machines can be a great investment. They can act as a source of second income, as a family business, a full-time business, or a source of passive income.

On the flip side, working with an established vending machine company as part of a franchise or franchise-like system might cost a little more up-front, but it will set up a vending machine business for success from day one by providing support in site selection, contracts, marketing, product sourcing and more.There are simply places where coffee machines won’t work like shopping malls and centers. They do work well in places like office buildings, apartment complexes, car dealerships and maintenance centers, medical centers, schools and places where you catch people doing a lot of waiting around or coming and going to work.

Cold food vending machines must be refrigerated so, like soda machines, they can be a bit more expensive to run. Additionally, the food must be turned over quickly. However, because people are essentially paying for meals, items can be marked up considerably, especially if a machine takes credit or debit cards.

Conversely, if you have a well-placed machine filled with snacks, for example, that sold 50 items a day at around $4 each but you paid 50 cents for each snack, your profits would be around $175. If you have several popular, well-placed machines, your profits would be well worth the work.There is a lot of money to be made in vending, and it shows in the current state of the industry. There are around 5 million operational vending machines in the US right now and they rake in over $7 billion in annual sales for their operators. As far as profits go, the snack niche alone generates $64 million in annual profits for vending machine operators.Cold food vending machines dispense ready-to-eat, frozen or re-heatable items like salads, sandwiches, burritos, breakfast foods and full meals. To make this type of machine profitable, it is important to have a mix of foods that have a short shelf life and foods that have a longer shelf life.As long as people eat and drink on the go, there will be a need for well-placed, well-stocked vending machines. But like any business, it is possible to have great success in vending machines, to fall in the middle of the pack, or even to fail. The key is having the right support, the right strategies and the right pricing structures in place to ensure a vending machine business makes money.
