    US Printing Company, Recommendations?

    Hey Fastlaners, We are in the process of getting our packaging cars redesigned for retail; our current design has a few typos/grammar errors and i dont think it is an effective design for retail. Our product manufactureres in China are the ones printing the packaging cars at the moment, but the...

    I like that, i agree. We just didnt want to claim that it would stop your hands from sweating because that is not possible, but i think eliminates moisture is perfect. I will be trying a couple social media giveaways, and i think we will see what we can do as far as a commercial/promo vid goes...

    Marketing Ideas?

    IDEA MARKETING 
    we had a great review/instructional video on there but the person who made it deleted his account, so that was a quick temporary fix until we can get another good review to put up. It is not patentable because it is a "novelty" the patent lawyers said. We thought about going straight to...

    yeah we play a good bit of gamebattles, though the people on the forums dont tend to be very encouraging when it comes to "promoting" an idea/business

    Marketing Ideas?

    IDEA MARKETING 
    My company has been up for about 5 weeks now, our first month was pretty good; we brought in roughly $500 in revenue. Granted, a good bit of that revenue is from friends and acquaintances. I need some ideas for marketing to grow our online sales. ProGripz - Xbox 360 Controller Grips is our...

    VBulletin vs IPS vs other forum provider?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I started up an unsuccessful vBulletin forum about a year and a half ago. With vBulletin, you have way more customizability and features that can be added on. vBulletin always looks and operates more professionally than any other forum software.

    Shipping Amazon Orders...?

    Im not really sure what you mean by this. Yes we use USPS shipping, but since our product is already so inexpensive we make the buyers pay shipping, but it is only $2.12 anywhere inside the US. But i guess regardless of us having the pay for the $2.12 ourselves, its a sale and were still...

    Shipping Amazon Orders...?

    So my product is listed on Amazon for $10.99 and the shipping price is $3.99, because thats what amazon says it has to be for my item. Someone bought it yesterday, so i checked out the funds that were being sent to me and it said that i will be receiving $10.99, because Amazon takes that $3.99...

    Chicago - I will give you my honest, respectful opinion. I started a cars forum about a year and a half ago; used vBulletin and got it all set up by myself - very easy to do. A car forum is a very very hard niche to just join into and i figured this out the hard way. There are thousands of...

    From Teenager to Entrepreneur - The Launch of my First Business

    HOT! 
    1. PlayMaker grips just broke out into the market recently, but they have not received much attention (atleast positive attention) because their grips are very thick and nothing keeps them in place from sliding and slipping off. Our biggest competitor is SquidGrip, they have a very good product...
