My New Olympic Client!

[JKurz1]

I have reeled in a client (who won silver in swimming back in the 80's) who has developed a 100% natural cookie. All organic ingredients. Chocolate Chip and Macademia Nut. Each cookie (and they are huge!) is 300 cals, 20% fat, 30% protein and 50% carbs. Geared towards the fitness enthusiasts who is also an athlete and pushed for time. Must be frozen or refrigerated. Flax is the fat source and nuts.....whey and casein proteins.........sugar from fructose (very tiny) and carbs are oats.

He brought me 5 and I'll tell you what, they are to die for. any ideas for getting these out?

couple of problems I see. He can only afford to sell them in packs of 5. so it's $10 a pack, because ind. wrap is mucho $$. Also, they must be refrigerated. He's sold 2800 this month JUST to the local diving and swim team. They are crazy about them. SC - you are a bizness man - any thoughts?

very nice!

Get someone who has a C.G. background (computer graphics) have them design nice flyers (with a developed an quality Logo, ect.) and post them in all gym/fitness/natural food stores in the area to start locally.

Develop a business plan if you really want to take it to the next level.

If you already have saturated the local market and it's time to go broader. I'd set up a website... you could get an excellent client base through fitness website online and could make quite the killing.

You should ask him if he's really ready to blow up this cookie (full time job for awhile), or just do it locally a few times whenever he wants.

Ebay is always a good way to go. Buyer pays the shipping. That really opens you up to a wide market.

Excellent... the ball is definetly rolling.

hehe you need some guidance, I need a paycheck.

Websites can be very simple or very in depth... toooo many factors. I'd say do some research unless some bros have time to really get into it for ya.

And the ebay idea is ok. Personally, I do not think many people would buy perishables on Ebay. I've sold items as large as cars on ebay and bought things as small as decals... never food/perisables though. Yes, the buyer always pays shipping (unless the seller is an idiot) it's built into the price to make the buyer feel better.

Good luck to ya though bro! I can't wait to try one!

I want to try one now too.

Too bad you're all the way in Ohio.

Setting up a website should be relatively easy. You looking for a professional?
