Could this be The Key to Stopping Drunk Driving?

Don’t drink and drive.

It is a slogan we hear from the time we are in elementary school; they try to drill it into us like they drill our letters and numbers. Even before we really understand what alcohol is, we’re ordered not to consume it and then drive.

Nevertheless, people still do it. Everywhere you turn, it seems, there’s another tragic story of an accident that happened because an inebriated person got behind the wheel of a car. This epidemic – for it can definitely be called such – has been the subject of legal measures, societal stigma, and preventative education, but it still has not been “cured.” Frustrating, no? Also extremely frustrating is the simple, easy solution that everyone seems to miss. It’s so easy to take a person’s blood alcohol level these days with a breathalyzer test. Police officers carry them as a matter of course, after all. But there is no easy access to a breathalyzer outside law enforcement.

The Alcobuddy intends to change that. The Alcobuddy is a breathalyzer machine, about the size of a large backpack and made of steel, meant to be mounted at eye level on a bar wall. It vends straws – any kind may be used – and walks the customer through the process of testing their blood alcohol level using a digital video screen. The eye-catching design ensures that both sober and intoxicated people will be curious enough to come over and look at it. The Alcobuddy is the best of its kind, featuring the best – and longest-lasting – alcohol sensor. The sensor only needs to be changed once every eight hundred to one thousand one hundred uses, and a replacement sensor is only one hundred dollars. It is also an internationally useful machine, as it can be programmed for any language and any currency, and can be customized to accept credit cards as well as or instead of bills and coins. In the states, it will accept ones, fives, tens, and twenty-dollar bills, though you can set it so that it only accepts up to four bills during any one use. All of these features are controlled by nine switches inside of the Alcobuddy, making it easy to customize every aspect of your breathalyzer vending machine.

But these features, among others, are not the reason why the Alcobuddy makes a great investment for any bar, club or other drinking establishment. The Alcobuddy is not a mere vending machine; it is a vending machine that is entirely capable of saving people’s lives if it is only given the chance. I’m of the opinion that many drunk drivers would not drive if they were aware of their blood-alcohol levels; cold, hard numbers have a way of opening people’s eyes, I suppose.

Finding Locations for Your Vending Machine

In the vending machine business, sometimes finding locations that are willing to allow you to place your machines on their premises can be tough. There are many reasons why this problem might occur. It could be that the space has already been filled by another vending machine company or maybe it could have something to do with the type of product you’re trying to place. Let’s face it, you’re not going to have any luck trying to place a soda machine in a health food store.

The process of finding locations to place your vending machine does not have to be difficult. With the right match of location to vending machine product, placing your vending machine becomes easy! For example, Alco-Buddy, an alcohol breathalyzer vending machine, would be the perfect type of vending machine for a bar or nightclub establishment. It’s the type of revolutionary new product that not very many establishments have seen yet and holds the potential to help reduce the amount of drink drivers on the road in the community.

Most bar and club owners are more than willing to place the Alco-Buddy inside their establishment. The novelty of the Alco-Buddy alcohol breathalyzer vending machine will help attract more business to his/her establishment. With it’s bold colors and flashing lights, the Alco-Buddy is sure to lure in tons of new patrons. The Alco-Buddy will actually help the business owner make more money!

What’s more is that the Alco-Buddy doesn’t cost the business owner a penny to be installed! The machine uses virtually no electricity and a negotiated percentage of the profits from the machine are split with the owner.

At the beginning, you’re going to have to dedicate a lot of time to placing your vending machines. With a product like the Alco-Buddy, getting machines placed can not only be a breeze, but you might make some new friends along the way. Once you’ve established a substantial route, you won’t have to spend so much time placing machines anymore. But servicing the machines is a process that should be done at least every month. Keeping a well-maintained route is also key to developing long-lasting relationships with the business owner and might even help you get recommended in the future! A healthy vending route should replacing about 5% of their locations a year. New customers will come and old customers will go. But the process of installing and uninstalling the Alco-Buddy is effortless, making it simple to recycle the use of your machines!

Affiliate with a community project or not-for-profit organization and double your chances of getting your machine placed. Not only will it make money for the charity, but if a business owner knows that part of the proceeds will be donated to charity, it is even more likely for them to agree to let you place the Alco-Buddy in their establishment.

Alco-Buddy Helps Local Communities Fight the War against Drunk Driving

Drunk driving is a serious problem in the United States. Of fatal accidents in 2009, The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) calculated that 32 percent involved alcohol-impaired drivers and more than 181 children were killed due to drivers who were drunk. These are innocent victims whose lives were affected by an irresponsible drunk driver. More and more, local communities are depending on an integrated community-based approach to sanction offenders.

In Suffolk County, NY, The Special Traffic Options Program for Driving While Intoxicated (STOP-DWI) program has helped reduce the number of alcohol-related traffic fatalities and injuries in New York State. According to the Suffolk County Government website, the program requires the county government to implement a yearly plan of action that addresses impaired enforcement, prosecution, probation, rehabilitation, public information and education. What’s unique is that the program is supported by fines collected from the people convicted of alcohol and/or drug related traffic infractions in that county. The program is completely funded by drunk drivers, allowing the county to step up prosecution, conduct rehabilitation and education activities, implement an active public awareness campaign and add extra police patrols and DWI checkpoints – all on the offenders’ dime.

But law enforcement agents in New York are now voicing concern over a new application for smartphones that is capable of pinpointing DWI checkpoints, speed traps and red light cameras using GPS data. The technology gives drunk drivers the ability to escape detection. New York State Senator, Charles Schumer, questioned the legality and morality of these apps at the inaugural hearing of the Privacy and Technology Subcommittee of the Senate Judiciary Committee back in March. The Senator was instrumental in getting Blackberry makers, Research in Motion, to remove these apps from their smartphones. However, Google and Apple are still refusing to remove the apps from the Android and iPhone, insisting that the applications do not violate their terms of service.

Of course, the ability to evade DWI checkpoints using a smartphone app is not the kind of integrated community-based approach that the NHTSA had in mind. But an innovative vending machine manufacturer in Holbrook, NY, has designed a product that can help fight drunk driving on the community level. Alco-Buddy, the revolutionary new alcohol breathalyzer vending machine, is quickly becoming a valuable tool to help communities reduce the number of drunk drivers on the road without having to increase police patrol. The concept is simple. Business owners who serve alcohol in their establishments allow distributors to install the vending machine on their wall, free of charge. In return, the distributor splits a percentage of the Alco-Buddy’s profits with the business owner. It’s a win/win situation that also helps drinkers determine whether they’re too intoxicated to get behind the wheel before leaving the establishment. What’s more is that the Alco-Buddy is also equipped to boldly display taxi and limo service information, making it simple for drinkers to find an alternative way home.

With the increase of drunk driving arrests and convictions in combination with the latest alcohol related accident statistics, it’s clear to see why a product such as the Alco-Buddy can benefit the entire community. It not only brings a distinctive novelty to the local bars, pubs and restaurants, but it also makes the roads safer for everyone.

The Alco-Buddy – A Drunk-Driving Deterrent

It seems that every time someone turns around, there’s another story in the paper or on televised news broadcasts about some tragedy or another involving drunk driving. It’s pretty safe to say that drunk driving is kind of a huge problem in America, and there’ve been dozens of measures and debates made about preventing it and the deaths it continues to cause. Legal measures, social stigma, it seems like pretty much every trick in the book has been tried.

However, it seems that there’s one glaring omission in the crusade against drunk driving. Nobody ever talks about the availability, or, really, lack thereof, of breathalyzer testing. Sure, police officers carry breathalyzers as a matter of course, but not every drunk driver gets pulled over for reckless driving before it’s too late and someone’s been hurt or killed by the recklessness they’ve shown. It seems rather unfair that you already have to be posing a threat to just find out that your blood alcohol level is dangerously high. It’s an unfortunate truth, and a simple solution has been mainly ignored.

Until now.

The Alco-Buddy is a breathalyzer machine meant to be mounted at eye-level in a barroom. Its catchy designs draw the attention of curious passers-by, and it’s large enough (about the size of a large backpack; 18 x 12 x 6 inches) to be obvious. It is made of galvanized steel and has a digital video screen that will guide a patron through the steps to test their blood alcohol level. It’s accurate to within .01 of your actual blood alcohol level, and it takes between 800 and 1100 uses to finish off the alcohol sensor. This sensor is the longest-lasting in the business, and, coupled with the six-hundred straw capacity, this means that you don’t have to worry too much about changing the sensors and straws too often. The machine can be customized with your own ads, your own currency, and even can replace the bills-and-coins, traditional payment mechanism with a credit card slot. Easy to use switches control the accepted currency, language, and amount of payment from inside the Alco-Buddy, making the thing even more efficient and adaptable. It’s also profitable due to its relative cheapness – the alcohol sensor I mentioned before only costs one hundred dollars to be replaced, after all.

These are only some of the features of the Alco-Buddy, but it really isn’t the features that make me think of this as a worthy investment. What makes this a worthy investment is almost absurdly simple – it offers a service that nearly no one else does, and this is one of the best services one can offer, because it is a service that can save lives.

The Numbers Don’t Lie

The Alco-Buddy alcohol breathalyzer vending machine business is a great industry to get into and can earn you a pretty decent income. Almost anyone with the right personality traits can manage their own Alco-Buddy business. Of course, you can’t just slap a few machines on the wall and expect the cash to start rolling in. It takes dedication and perseverance to help get your business off the ground and make a desirable income. But ultimately, the business comes down to numbers.

We can do some quick math to help you get familiar with the types of numbers we’re talking about. Let’s say the average income, per machine, is about $100 per month. With only 3 machines placed, you can be earning an extra $3,600 a year! But this is hardly enough money to convince you to quit your day job. So let’s say we up the number of machines to 10. With 10 Alco-Buddys placed, at an average of $100 per machine, it works out to be about an extra $10,000 per month! Times that by 12 months in a year and you’re making an extra $120,000 per year! That’s a 6 figure salary from a route small enough to be maintained part-time!

Once you establish a steady route, you’re going to have to service your Alco-Buddy on a regular basis. The Alco-Buddy requires servicing about once a month. Servicing the machines encompasses everything from collecting the money made from the machine, calibrating the machine, cleaning the machine and/or making any adjustments or repairs to the machine. Fortunately, vending is a very time efficient business. It will probably take between 15-20 minutes for you to service one machine. Driving time between establishments can take up to a half an hour, depending on how far apart your machines are placed. With only 10 machines placed, this means it is possible for you to schedule just one full day a month for servicing all of your machines. Opt to equip your machine with a high-quality credit-card reader and this gives you one less task to perform when servicing your machine and also allows you to watch your income grow in real-time online!

If you’ve been keeping track of the numbers so far, you’ll realize that it’s not hard to potentially make $10,000 per month while only working one full day per month. This is much better than that 9-5 you worked your butt off for.

Now why would you wait? Contact a professional sales representative to find out how you can start making a cash income with Alco-Buddy now. Visit www.alcobuddy.com or call 1.888.925.2628.
