Municipal locations lead strategy
Navigate public buildings and approvals.
Updated Feb 9, 2026
Overview
Location type determines product mix, pricing, and service cadence. Navigate public buildings and approvals.
Diagnostics
- Confirm traffic patterns and peak hours.
- Identify space and power availability.
- Understand location expectations.
Resolution steps
- Tailor product mix to the location type.
- Propose a placement that maximizes visibility.
- Set service cadence to match traffic.
Preventive maintenance
- Use a location checklist.
- Collect photos during the site walk.
- Confirm decision authority and approval steps.
When to contact support
- Offer a trial placement.
- Provide references from similar locations.
- Adjust placement if sales underperform.
See packages and pricing at /pricing. Start with leads at /vending-leads or /hot-leads.
Expanded guidance
- Confirm all steps are documented so the next technician can reproduce the results.
- Capture before/after metrics (errors cleared, sales restored, or uptime improved).
- Review machine, reader, or route settings to ensure they match location standards.
Common pitfalls
- Skipping a controlled test leads to false positives.
- Updating hardware without documenting configuration changes.
- Forgetting to verify payout, refund, or reconciliation data after changes.
Next-step checklist
- Run a final test with known-good inputs.
- Log the outcome with date, time, and device identifiers.
- Schedule a follow-up check if the location has high traffic or seasonal demand.
