I was sending out a standardized letter to some people who were for info about my protein. On the letter I had copied and pasted a passage from this message board where I was giving details about it. Well I just so happened to include that little bout with one of the guys that was trying to discredit me. I totally didn't read what I had copied and pasted before I sent it out to at least ten people.
At the end, I said "and by the way, numbnuts, I'm not scheduled to begin sales till later in January AFTER I GET MY VENDOR'S LISCENCE." !!!! Talk about a bad way to start earning people's respect! I didn't even realize it until a couple of people emailed me asking me what was up with the "numbnuts."
I emailed everyone back that may have gotten the letter and apologised. I hope that people will laugh about that and not be pissed off...

Boy don't I feel stupid! lol, " and by the way ,numbnuts,..."

So Stew, how's it coming? Are you getting all of your samples out yet? You might have posted this earlier, but did you ever decide on what type of packaging you will use?

Good luck!!!

I should have all of the samples sent out by Monday. I would have finished up today (Friday) but my printer went out (I was printing out the shipping labels) and I had to buy another one. Well, I couldn't get it to work; kept getting error messages. I stayed on the teck line (long distance) with Epson for an hour (no exaggeration). We just couldn't figure out what it could be. He finally put me on hold to transfer me to somebody else from the software department so that they could see if something was wrong with the software. I waited five more minutes and hung up.
I decided to hook up the other printer again to see if I got an error message and realized that the printer cable had come unplugged!

Right now I'm leaning more towards the Protein Factory style of boxing. Considering I'm not making much off of this, I just can't see paying 3-5 dollars a piece for plastic containers. There are a lot of people that want to buy 20-30lbs at a time too and it would be impossible to ship out that many containers. So,for simplicity's sake and to make it more cost efficient, I'm probably going with sacks of protein in boxes.
I talked to a bro on this board that works at a company that sets up businesses to take credit cards. It's going to cost me $130 bucks just for a one time fee, plus $50 a month plus a percentage of all the sales. I don't think that I'm going to have enough capitol to start off taking credit cards. It may be a while before I can get that system set up.
And taking checks are so risky. For one, if the check is bad, I don't get paid for all the powder that I shipped out. Another thing is, the bank bills me for the check bouncing. It would cost me 2.5% of all my sales to have the checks guaranteed by a guarantee service. So I'm probably not going to be able to accept checks for a while.
So it looks like all that I'm going to be able to take is money orders and cash starting off. I will in the future take cards and checks, but that will have to wait until after I sell enough protein to afford it.
How does everyone feel about sending cash through the mail? I know that people normaly don't like to, but most of the people that will be buying this protein mail cash all the time to sources. Afterall, it's guaranteed if you send it certified.

Bros, if you have any suggestions about getting this thing kicked off good, I'm all ears.

I'm going to be sending out a memo to everyone that requested sample to tell them when the protein goes on sale.

Thanks

-Stew
