Hi, I’m Lakinya –
Vending Business Mentor | Higher Education Faculty | Wife | Entrepreneur
I help everyday people take one step closer to financial freedom through vending machine ownership.
My journey began while I was working full-time as a high school teacher. Like many educators, I was underpaid and looking for a way to earn extra income without sacrificing the career I loved. That’s when I discovered vending.
With a low startup cost, minimal day-to-day involvement, and scalable potential, vending machines became the perfect side hustle. I dove in, learned through trial and error, and built a business that changed my financial future.
Now, with years of experience and a thriving vending business under my belt, I’ve made it my mission to help others do the same.
Why Vending?
Starting a vending business is ideal for anyone who:
Wants to stop living paycheck to paycheck
Needs a flexible side hustle with passive income potential
Has limited startup capital but a strong desire to grow
Is ready to build a business they can manage on their own terms
