Author | Topic: OUT OF FREE SAMPLES | ||
Amateur Bodybuilder ![]() ![]() Posts: 195 |
Well guys, I got a much greater response than I thought I would. I'm sending out over 100 free samples already. I'm sure I've got PLENTY of refrences! No one likes to spend money on a product that they've never heard of. That was my purpose of the free samples. I wanted to gain respect for my company by letting you hear first hand from bros how good my products are. I also am including the Certificate of Analysis withever sample I'm sending out. I may still offer free samples but I must ask that shipping be paid by the recipiant. Sample sizes are about 1/4lb. I intend on establishing a credit card system by the time that I begin accepting orders. I also intend on developing a website. I will send out a reminder in the mail when sales begin. I will also send out emails. As I said before, depending on the amount of participation, prices may change. But they will ONLY GO DOWN!!!. If I don't make my money back on my investment, I will chalk it up as loss for myself because I didn't get the word out enouth. I will not let the cost fall back on the bros that I promised the product at $6 per lb to. But I'm sure that I won't have that problem considering the number of emails that I've gotten. Again, I really appreciate everyone's cooperation and the kind words of encourage that I received over emails. Thanks bros. Your new source for protein, Jason Steward ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

If George wants a free sample, I'll send him one too. But I don't think that he'd want to be a refrence for me. You'll find, after you hang around here for a while, that we're a lot tighter than bros from other boards. Sure there are some kids that get on here and show themselves sometimes but like you said, this is a free board. Have you ever had someone help you out? I guess not, you're like the Grinch that stole Christmas. Well how about this mister Grinch, I'll send you a free sample too. I'll help out all my bros find a cheaper source for high quality protein. Sure, I may get some money in my pocket too somewhere down the line, but I can assure you that it won't make up for all of the time and effort that I'm putting into this. -Stew [This message has been edited by Stew Meat (edited January 02, 2001).] ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I don't see it your way at all. I buy loads of Georges supps and I pay my dues that way Perhaps you don't pay dues but many of us do in one way or another Where would the board be if we weren't here to keep it going with information. We bring people to this board who are in search of information. They come here look around and see the advertisments. And maybe they buy maybee they don't but they keep coming back and keep seeing that this place sells supps. We are the advertisers of this board. I think that Stew is just trying to help a few good people here out and maybee make a few bucks down the line. If this isn't the place to come then No one here should advertise websites or offer services from this board either. No links No Word of mouth No anything but "Elite fitness". Censour ship is crap. If this isn't allowed Then why be part of a board that doesn't allow self promotion. Thats why we are here to promote our bodies I guess we can post here either. Since we aren't all "ELITE FITNESS TEST TUBE BABIES" How far can you take this. JAy ------------------ Lift ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I edited my previous post so you may want to reread it. I gave a crap load of information to bros so that they would know what to look for while buying a supplement. I explained some of the tricks and false labeling the suppliment companies pull on consumers. I informed people of the differences in taste and digestability of different whey sources. I posted a lot of things that most people need to hear in order to be an educated purchaser of protein powder. But do you know what makes it border an advertisement? The fact that their is only one source to get something of the quality that I discoused without going broke in the process. ME. I taught people about how to tell if something is high quality and I told them where to find it. I can show you umphteen thousand posts saying the same thing. -Stew ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Moresize: Who...the...hell..puts periods...after every...other word. Please..stop..it's giving..me a...migrane... Seriously. The guy is just trying to start up his buisness and get some word of mouth about his protein. He's going to be putting up a website soon so I see no problem with what he's doing.. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Well, here's the scoop on shipping charges of samples in the US. Each sample is $5. This includes a 1/2 lb sample. For international shipping of samples, the cost is $8 for Canada, $10 for any other country. Here's what I'm looking at right now as far as international shipping of protein (USPS prices): Air Mail prices: I'm still checking around trying to find a cheaper way to ship. These prices are for USPS and include shipping fees from www.usps.com Email me at [email protected] if you need more info. I have about $30 bros in other countries that I am sending out free samples to... Thanks guys. Your new source for protein! -Stew Meat ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||
