How do I get retail stores to carry a nutritional supplement I designed and had manufactured? -

Hi Everyone! I have really been thinking about making my own nutritional supplement. I have been an athlete my whole life and want to create something that is tailored to what myself and my teammates feel is important as far as supplements go. The problem is, while I have a company lined up to manufacture my product and I am working on getting incorporated, I have no idea how to get my product out to the market. I have never worked at a vitamin store or health food store (just retail clothing!) so I don t know what their process is as far as agreeing to carry some one s product. I really feel that its a great idea, but I am so nervous to go ahead with having it manufactured because I don t know how to approach the store owners or how I will get it out to the public. If anyone works for a vitamin or health food store and knows how the process works, I would really really appreciate any feedback you have and how I could get a store interested in carrying my product and would it be totally impossible to do that given all the huge brands that currently offer products through these stores. Thank you so much!!!!

Hiring based on lookS? -

do you think hiring based on looks is unfair to hard workers ? especially those unemployed person because of recession?

Yes, it s unfair. But that s the way it has been and always will be. There s no objective way to discipline a company because they hire people with better looks over skilled workers.One personal example in my life was that I had 10 years of experience at my job and was really good at it - the department did need a new worker and the manager hired a blonde bimbo and she got my shift and I got put back down to a worse shift. She didn t know what the ***** she was doing (sorry about the language). Her and the manager had an affair (they were both married). Freakin ridiculous - but you can t really do anything about it.

SMALL BUSINESS : restaurant like bakery? -

i was thinking to make a small / medium bakery like no other around where i live.,,i was thinking like a MENU for dessert like things to be served like in restaurants..you order or call before you come and we ll serve it to you fresh and hot or cold whatever it needs to be..surrounding will be like a .. warm.. wooden walls and warm colors of wall paper.. like starbucks like -- cozy feeli just wanted your opinions!im korean and usually we have very different dessert / breakfast like breads with a lot of fruits on it or pizza toppings on it or donut like things.. and targetting korean and american people ill make pancakes and other things .. and mix cultures with bread.. so that we ll get to spread more of what each country eats and all.do you think it s a good idea??

You might want to check out http://cookingwithdenay.com/top-10-food-��Remember the economy is still in turmoil and even with that said Americans are watching their waistlines and wallets. More Americans are becoming aware of the need to improve their health and the role that diet can play in doing so. So make sure you work in foods that will focus on whole grains/fiber, types of fat, and food s functionality.America has an increased incidence and awareness of Type 2 diabetes so offer alternative sugar, low sugar and no sugar options. Check into making products with Agar Agar.The health-conscious and/or pleasure-seeking dairy (fat and cheese) consumer is looking for convenient, health-oriented, and premium/self-indulgent products i.e. bacon and feta stuffed spinach pancakes...no really.I don t know where you live but if you are going into the restaurant business today, in 2010 you better be in it for the long haul, else you are just wasting money.

i think its a great idea!

Making Lots of Money Help Me? -

OK, so I need to make about $2000 really fast to pay for a trip to Canada with school next summer. I decided that I mainly want to make and sell things, so here s what I m selling and for how much:Bracelets/Anklets- $2Necklaces- $3.50Rings- $1Locker signs (Popular at my school right now)- $3Key chains- $2Pillows- $4Blankets- $6Zipper pulls- $1Scarves- $3T-shirts- $5Ornaments- $3Bookmarks- $0.50Bulletin boards (Decorated)- $6Wreaths- $4Cookie tins with baked good inside- $3Picture frames- $4.50Magnets- $2Socks- $1 a pairRugs- $10Cat toys/Dog toys- $3 Homemade dog treats- $4 a boxHats- $3Pins/Badges/Buttons promoting school spirit- $1Decorated tennis balls/baseballs- $3Bird feeders- $2Candles- $5Personalized pet food dishes- $8Headbands/Scrunchies- $4Cell phone/Laptop cases- $6Pens- $1Tote bags- $5Hermit crab shells- $5Dog bandanas- $6Birdhouses- $4Shoelaces- $1As you can see, I m desperate.

You need to advertise your sale, so you ll get interest.Selling things are basically the only thing you can do with such a short time to get money.Get a job that pays weekly, and keep it right up until you go to Canada.Good luck x

Great ideas, why not advertise on the free classifieds on www.paganshop1.com and also, have a spell cast while you are there, the results of the wealth spell is amazing, I tried it along with the ��800 a week plan and never looked back, what have you got to lose? Report Abuse

a job waitressing or hostessing for a small restaurant is a great, you can easily make 2000 by next summer. I d say a job is your best bet because (assuming you re in middle school?) nobody is really going to buy any of those things because I ve tried doing that in middle school, it doesn t really workand btw, where the hell do you live that it costs 2000 to go to Canada? lol

a successful life by my definition means making my dreams come true, whether it be having a nice truck(not necessarily an 08) a degree--and a career(not necessarily making tons of money either)--something that makes me truly happy...having someone to share it with(eventually)

Get a hair cut and get a real job?Well, your plan works too, just advertising, make sure you have good advertising.

Hi,look for a pawn shop in your city or town wherever you are or a place that buys items for cash.You could also have a garage sale and sell things to people in your neighbourhood.You can also send letters to big companys asking for sponsorship,all you have to do is make copy letters.Hand written and send them to all of the big companys asking if they will sponsor you for your trip and you tell them you need to raise $2000.Ive done this before and some of the companys agreed,we did this before i went to nepal as a volunteer 8 years ago.They wont give you all of the money but if your lucky they will help you out with a small amount =)

Thinking of trying to start up a small online business (part-time)? -

the plan is to create a site to allow landlords etc, market their openings on my site, but my site will be set up more along the lines being marketed towards a specific college campus area. Any idea if this would work or if you would use a site like this over a craigslist type of site?

It would work very well if you can market it successfully. The town where I live has a site like that (it s also a university town), and it s where most students find apartments/houses to rent.

Use a website like eCoder or eLance.com to find programmers that can write the logic for a site like that. They will be less expensive that trying to find someone local to do it. I always use programmers in the Pacific Rim or Slavic countries where US dollars go a long way.

Is there a laget work at home site? -

All the omes I have seen at scams. Stay away from them.

Selling crafts online and need ideas? -

Hello I am selling some crafts online at www.lolyttedesigns.comI need some ideas of how to market my website as well as what I should make to sell on it. Also what sort of a pricing system should i use?Thanks

went to your website and found the ebay store.....looks like you ve figured it all out.....you can easily come up with sure to sell prices by averaging the prices you ve sold your item for in the past....you can also browse the net for other handmade items and store and price accordingly ...since its hand made and you might not be too picky about the price just make sure what you get paid is worth your while....since the hours you put in is also a valued resource....best of luck
