OCEAN RETAIL FIELD GUIDE / COLLECT
Open a product current to see what the buyer should verify before adding a package to the configuration. The categories describe possible retail formats, not confirmed machine compatibility.
OCEAN RETAIL FIELD GUIDE / DESTINATION
A strong location brief joins audience demand with permissions, practical service access and the full cost of the venue.
Confirm actual dimensions, weight, power needs, delivery route, service-door clearance, positioning and approved stabilisation. Wheels in the reference do not prove that an installation route is suitable. Review shopper circulation, screen access, collection reach and applicable accessibility requirements at the actual location.
Request the model’s approved environmental conditions; the pictures do not establish outdoor suitability, cooling or a protection rating. Agree rent or commission basis, utilities, refill access windows, customer-case ownership and termination terms before budgeting the site.
OCEAN RETAIL FIELD GUIDE / BUSINESS CURRENT
Illustrative USD planning scenarios. Replace every assumption with your supplier quote, licensing terms, venue agreement and observed retained demand. The examples are neither forecasts nor guaranteed returns.
Operating break-even
Retained monthly units to cover $720 at $8.50 contribution per unit, rounded up.
24-month recovery target
Monthly units to cover $720 plus recovery of $9,600 over 24 months at the stated contribution.
Illustrative initial cash
$8,100 equipment and launch costs plus $1,500 opening stock and working cash.
Unit contribution = realised price − landed merchandise cost − payment fees − variable loss and support allowance − any additional sales-dependent expense. Here: $18 − $8 − $0.72 − $0.78 = $8.50. A licensing royalty or sales commission belongs in variable costs if calculated per sale; recalculate contribution and avoid counting it twice.
Monthly operating contribution = retained sales × contribution − fixed costs. Low tide: 50 × $8.50 − $720 = −$295. Steady current: 140 × $8.50 − $720 = $470. Strong-current case: 280 × $8.50 − $720 = $1,660.
Simple cash recovery = initial launch cash ÷ positive monthly operating contribution. The steady case is $9,600 ÷ $470, about 20.4 months. The strong-current sensitivity is $9,600 ÷ $1,660, about 5.8 months. Negative contribution has no finite recovery under unchanged assumptions.
Break-even = $720 ÷ $8.50 = 84.71, rounded to 85 retained sales. A 24-month target is ($720 + $9,600 ÷ 24) ÷ $8.50 = 131.76, rounded to 132 units monthly. These calculations assume stable price, unit contribution and fixed expenses.
Include actual landed cost, royalties, venue rent or commission, refill labour, travel, utilities, software, connectivity, insurance, refunds and maintenance. Opening stock is included in initial cash; ongoing merchandise cost represents replacement stock. Classify each cost once.
Examples exclude financing, taxes, depreciation, ramp-up, residual value, discounting and changing working capital. Simple cash recovery is a planning measure, not accounting ROI or a promise of commercial performance.
