See the pix below of the latest version of what the "Chasing Rope Lights" look like in the daytime and at night to get customers to notice the vending machine. This is what you will see at the WCA Show next week in Booth #648. If nothing else the customer will wonder "what are those stupid...

We have a customer, who has had one of our vendors on a 5-Bay self serve wash since 2003, add the e-Port credit card system earlier this year to the vendor. The monthly sales for the previous 14 months (before CC) averaged right at $500 per month. In the 7 months since installing the credit...

MEP, This wasn't my contest; one of my customers had planned to go but at the last minute wanted someone to use the freeby. I had 10 days to put it together. Snail mail won't work like that. If you have followed my Users Group over the years you would know that I don't do "Build it and they...

"Gentlemen" When ever a new thread is started it appears on the "Home Page" as a new topic in big, bold lettering for all to see for 2-3 days. We all know our car wash customers don't read anything; could this "disease" be catching? Uncle Sam

Let's do dinner together. There will be 2 of us. Uncle Sam

We received some feedback by PM from another forum member on this concept and some ideas about how to improve on the lights. We appreciate that and do not get offended if someone does comment or criticize what we do. We are trying to solve problems that we see and need your feedback to make it...

We are just finishing the design and build of our new Junior line of in-the-wall 18-selection vendors which will be shown for the first time at the WCA show in Las Vegas, Oct 6, 7. This style of vending machine usually installs flush against the wall of the equipment room (like a change...

ShurVend has an educational session in the "Nuts & Bolts" portion of the WCA show that will be from 1-1:30 P.M. on the show floor. We will go through the basic operation of the vendors with a small demonstrator that mimics the larger vendors. I will spend about 10-15 minutes showing the...

Wouldn?t anyone like to have a product that operates almost exactly like the newest versions available, but priced at a 45% discount to the new price?? If you are like me, ---you betcha! I have been searching everywhere for the past 6 months for good, used AMS vendors that can be updated to...

John, Happy that you are OK. One never knows when these people are going to cross your path. Uncle Sam

Store #4 was bought in July, 2004 and the ShurVend was installed in December, and, again, this time directly into the vacuum island area of the wash. You can immediately see the increase in average monthly sales after the ShurVend was installed when compared to the 5 months of drop shelf sales...

Store #3 was bought in July, 2003 and the ShurVend was installed in October, but this time directly into the vacuum island area of the wash. You can immediately see the increase in average monthly sales after the ShurVend was installed when compared to the 3 months of drop shelf sales. You...

Store #2 was bought in Oct, 2002 after which the ShurVend was installed in December on the exit side of the bays where the old drop shelf vendors had been because, in the customer?s words, ?it was the convenient thing to do and required no building of a pad or block work. Besides I thought my...

The numbers at Store #1 (below) show the beginning vending sales records with 3-4 drop shelves in the vacuum island area. Within 6 months the operator installed 7 or 8 new drop shelf vendors on a wall at one end of the vacuum island area. (1998) The first ShurVend was installed (May, 2003) on...

After many years of operating computer-controlled vendors at my own washes and receiving sporadic sales numbers from ShurVend customers, I came to the unconventional conclusion that the computer-controlled vendor needs to be installed IN (not near) the vacuum island area of a wash for high...

The Operator of this wash shared a few pix of the new ShurVend vendor he just installed. His signage is great and he continues the use of "trash can" marketing posted months ago in this users group. Enjoy! Uncle Sam :)
