Healthfulness
Bronze Contributor
Hello! I've been working on this idea for quite a long time, but recently I have chosen that this is what I will fully focus and work on.
The goal: to build and online store selling various superfood mixes and other herbal products with health benefits.
What have I done? Years long interest in health and food (since I adapted vegan lifestyle). Have learned a lot how plants and herbs can be used to improve our health and well being, have the knowledge. Working hard in 2 jobs (as full time student) and have side hustles that will generate enough money to launch this project. Working on becoming high level athlete which I will use as marketing tool - blog, instagram, youtube accounts on my training, race days etc. and promoting It trough higher level athletes and sponsoring them - exposure and social proof.
I have made exact product list with information and research on every ingredient. Soon ordering first samples for both packaging and products themselves. Source: Alibaba.
Plan now is to have 50 sample products which I would test on myself and give out to people in order to test and improve my products.
Final goal: launching online store and selling them in whole Europe.
What I am missing is lack of experience building a company. Registering company, importing? Fairly easy.
What comes afterward is bit confusing, such as do I need to do lab tests, what about licences to sell those products, how inspection works, regulations about storing them?
Basically I am missing all part between having product imported at customs and customer receiving It. Would appreciate any kind of advice, information on this. Both MJ's books are one the way to me (just ordered)!
I actually have extremely ambitious goals on how I will make global impact on whole healthy lifestyle, but this is where I would like to start. Thanks!
