    "Dessert" will never be the same

    EXECUTION 
    Improved recipe even more for flavor. Turns out protein absorbs flavor over time. Sucks. Fixed now, though. Now for what I've been really doing lately: for anyone trying to get in the food biz, get ready to have a good time. You'll be jumping through some legal hoops. I can't even legally...

    "Dessert" will never be the same

    EXECUTION 
    Selling ice-cream door to door isn't the best tactic these days. Turns out people don't like putting stuff into their mouth from people they don't know. So far I have ghetto labels, nutri and ingredient lists, pints, recipe great etc. I'll probably start talking to some gym owners this...

    I'm still in this guys. I've been bogged down ALOT with school and work, but I've cut down my work hours quite a bit since this week, so I should have more time to visit the forum. I've sold quite a few more ice-creams at my school. I have a couple repeat customers, which proves the stuff...

    Have a job interview tomorrow.. Tips? (16 Yearold)

    It's a cashier job so you'll be okay. It's really not tough at all. Just wear a shirt, don't wear a tie they'll probably think you're a weirdo. Act natural, look them in the eye and don't say any mumbo jumbo. As long as you're semi-intelligent, which you are, you'll get the job. Also, if...

    Going with "Redefine". Landed my first local sales today. Sold for a whopping $7 a pint. Now to see if I have any return customers. People are definitely interested in this one way or the other, haha. Some people absolutely REFUSE to believe that you can possibly mix protein and ice-cream...

    Good ideas guys. The vegan route is definitely a smart one. I'm assuming milk products (milk protein and cream) are non-vegan so I haven't gotten there yet. Right now I'm trying to get the icecream to 100% natural. The paleo diet would be extremely difficult because that diet requires no dairy...

    Don't be afraid to share your product with friends and family early on. The feedback may be crap and biased most of the time, but when you ask for referrals or leads to possible customers they can't sugarcoat that. Your friends and family can be the first to help you land your first REAL...

    Finally got some good freezing properties on this. The protein used to absorb all the flavors and the ice-cream got rock-hard after being in the freezer for a while. Took a bit but that's fixed and I'm finished with all of the technical crap now. At this point the ice-cream has a normal amount...

    Thanks a ton guys. I don't have the time to respond to everybody but I read each of your posts several times over. I'm being really empathetic and apologetic to my parents, and I'm setting them up to get over to my way of thinking. My girlfriend actually convinced my mom that this business is...

    Thanks so much guys. I seriously can't tell you through a keyboard how much it means to me. @Catalyst I took your advice and went to apologize to my parents. Whenever I broke down we said some pretty rude things to eachother, specifically to my mom, that I'm already ashamed of. I told my mom I...

    Hey guys. For all who don't know me I just turned 16 and I'm a junior in high school. I've been working on a protein ice-cream innovation since the beginning of summer and I've been going strong until a couple days ago. (I have a progress thread by the way) Since school's started, I've had...

    8/25/14 High school started up again today. It's a real pain in the a** but I'll push through it. I have a little less time each day to work on this but I can make time. I've been trying to make networking and reading a regular habit, too, after reading The Power of Habit. I've got a good MVP...

    Goals vs Systems

    MINDSET 
    I really like this new insight, but I'd never just get rid of my goals. I think it's a better idea to develop systems that can work for and support your goals. Just what I think.

    8/18/14 My entire view on entrepreneurship has changed in these last two months. When I first came up with my protein ice-cream idea, I immediately began dreaming of all the money I could make. I could already see the lambo, the mansion, and the pool. I "knew" my idea was an instant winner. I...
