Big moves tomorrow: morning call with a Vending365 rep and a MicroMart demo before lunch. Feeling like a snack CEO-in-training. Let’s see where these conversations take me! #VendingStartup #SmallBusiness #EntrepreneurLife #Vending
Flirting with the idea of starting a YouTube channel about getting this vending business off the ground. The real question: do I actually have time to film and edit after my 9-to-5, or will this be a highlight reel of me looking tired? 🤔 #VendingStartup #SmallBusiness #YouTubeDreams #vending
Applied for a business account with Navy Federal today. Now I’m just sitting here like, ‘Please approve me, I promise I’ll treat my snacks responsibly.’ #VendingStartup #SmallBusiness #EntrepreneurLife #Vending
Just created my Google Business listing. Now when people search for snacks, they’ll find me right next to ‘DIY trail mix recipes’ and ‘how to stop eating chips at 2 a.m.’ #VendingStartup #SmallBusiness #EntrepreneurLife
Just had my first call with a vending machine distributor. I think I asked some intelligent questions, but let’s be real — they could’ve sold me a dorm fridge on wheels and I would probably say yes. Ready to go already. #vendingstartup #smallbusiness #letsgetit
Big day: got my LLC docs (yesterday), snagged my EIN, and even requested a DUNS number. Who knew vending machines required so much paperwork? Feels like I’m starting a law firm, not a snack empire. #VendingStartup #SmallBusiness #EntrepreneurLife
Curious thought: do vending machine makers or sellers ever offer sponsorships or partnerships? Like, ‘Use our machines, and we’ll help you get started.’ Feels like untapped potential. 🤔 #VendingStartup #Sponsorships #Partnerships #VendingBusiness #Entrepreneurship #SmallBusiness #StartupJourney
Spent my Sunday scouting locations for vending machines. Nothing says ‘day off’ like pacing parking lots and asking, ‘Would people buy snacks here?’ Living the dream, one soda slot at a time. #VendingStartup #NoDaysOff #EmbraceTheGrind
Tomorrow’s agenda: scouting locations for vending machines. Basically, I’ll be wandering around with snacks in my mind and a hopeful smile on my face. Wish me luck! #VendingStartup #HopeItIsn'tTooCreepy #Vending #NewBusiness
Currently in business limbo, waiting for my LLC to get approved. Until then, I’m just a person with a logo and big vending dreams. #VendingStartup #HurryUpAndWait
Today’s lesson: building business credit. Step 1: Convince the bank I’m legit. Step 2: Hope they don’t notice I’m googling ‘what is a DUNS number’ in real time. #VendingStartup
Checked another box: virtual office is live. Turns out, running a vending business starts with a lot of not-vending things. Who knew? If you want to be pen pals, hit me up.

Filed my LLC paperwork today. Officially a business owner… with zero vending machines. 🤷♂️
Next up: convincing people I know what I’m doing. #VendingStartup #FakeItTillYouMakeIt #Vending
Step 1: Buy vending machines.
Step 2: ??
Step 3: Profit.
Currently stuck on Step 1. Follow along as I attempt to turn snacks and sodas into a thriving vending empire...or maybe just help pay off my mortgage #VendingStartup #vendingsidehustle #vendingmachine #vending #sidehustle
