The Venegas Route Starter Program

Everyone deserves
a shot at owning
something.

We started with machines and hustle. Now we help others do the same — free coaching, machines provided, and a real relationship from your first location to your tenth.

The belief

Entrepreneurship shouldn't require capital you don't have.
The barrier to starting a vending business is money and know-how. We remove both.

What the program includes

Mentorship,
access, a plan.

Three things that are usually locked behind years of experience or a large check. In this program they're the starting line.

Free coaching and training

Every step of the way. How to find and evaluate locations — the good, the bad, and the ugly. How to pitch a location owner. Which machine types belong in which spaces. How to plan a route that respects your time. How to stock it and how to price it. Nothing withheld.

Machines provided — no purchase required

We supply the machines for your route. You don't buy them. Venegas retains ownership and you operate them under a simple rental arrangement. Rent-to-own may be available as the program grows.

A plan built around you

One machine or twelve — the size of your route is built around your circumstances, your time, and the locations you secure. Through real conversations, not an application score.

How it works

A path, not a program deck.

  1. We talk

    About you, your goals, and your circumstances. In person or on a call. No pitch.

  2. We train

    Locations, machines, routes, operations. What to look for and what to walk away from.

  3. You secure your locations

    That part is yours — it's your business. We'll help you rehearse the pitch.

  4. We place your machines

    Rented from us, owned by us, run by you. We handle the install.

  5. You operate your route

    With our ongoing support — a text away when a question comes up.

Honest terms

Plain English,
up front.

The coaching and training are free. Machines are rented from Venegas Vending under terms we agree on together — a flat monthly fee or a percentage of sales, depending on what fits your situation. Every arrangement is personalized and discussed openly before anything is signed.

Program details are finalized in writing with each participant.

Three quick questions

Then a real conversation.

No forms, no applications. Answer three things so Elizabeth walks into the conversation already knowing you.
