TOP 5 SAFETY TIPS FOR BEING IN THE ATM BUSINESS CAREY BUCK You should definitely consider having a business policy that covers all of your ATM machines, including the cash within them. This will give you huge piece of mind and probably help you sleep better at night. The small investment for the policy is definitely worth it. 5. Take A Self-Defense Class If you REALLY want to go the extra mile when it comes to safety, then you should consider taking a self-defense class. I absolutely loved taking self-defense. I took the Haganah F.I.G.H.T. (Fierce Israeli Guerilla Hand to Hand Tactics) class. It was hardcore and very intense. I have to tell you though, I feel very confident as an ATM business owner that I can handle a situation that arises, or can even get away from a situation that arises. I also HIGHLY, HIGHLY, recommend all women to take a self-defense class, whether you are in the ATM business or not. Even being in the real estate business, I think it’s a great idea for women to take self-defense classes. As you can probably now tell from my tips, these safety tips really are common sense. Safety is very important in our lives, but when you follow common sense safety tips you can go out and confidently make money in the ATM business without having to worry. In my next article, I will go over the different team members that you will need for your new ATM business. You didn’t think you were going to do everything yourself did you?
