Matt Miller is the founder of School Spirit Vending. But he didn’t always think like an entrepreneur.

He spent the first nine years of his career as an Air Force pilot before entering the corporate world. Despite being a top performer, he had a long-term desire to start his own business and be his own boss.

After a random conversation with a friend about the gumball machines his family owned, the seed was planted for what would eventually become School Spirit Vending.

School Spirit Vending started with a single gumball machine, and now spans the United States with hundreds of locations run by a small army of franchisees.

In this conversation, we discuss why the vending machine business is still an excellent side hustle idea.
