Thanks for the advice. Decided to take Amazon out as a sales outlet.<br />
<br />
Need capital for the business.<br />
<br />
My only asset is a lifetime monthly indemnity from government insurance. Receive payments for 400$ monthly. Any ideas on how to leverage it for 10-20k?<br />
<br />
That will help with all startup costs. Can also take on a partner. Any advice and input is as always, appreciated.

I know some deep secrets of the fitness cult. There is a deep niche need that fulfils all of the fastlane commandments.<br />

You don't have to name the lab, but you found someone who will let you drop off the ingredients and then produce the supplements for you? Are they GMP certified? I don't think I came across anyone during my manufacturer search who would have allowed that. Are you sourcing your ingredients from someone like Purebulk, or an ingredient distributor?

Thank you for your posts. Currently following up with 7-8 local manufacturer leads. Have some personal visits to make this week. Sourcing from several ingredient distributors. Thank you for the purebulk lead. That's a great site and will probably end up ordering something from them. Some labs are GMP certified. What sort of standards should I implement into my product? Located in Canada here. In the states I know the FDA regulates everything and most of OTC fitness products have liability statements such as "These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease"<br />
<br />
*Made in a cGMP and NSF certified facility" will be included on label<br />

I couldn't disagree more about Amazon. I suppose it could be the case for a high end brand like the clothing line you're launching, but for a supplement that is a huge market to not take advantage of. People are buying thousands of bottles a day there, many of whom are likely only searching Amazon or who prefer to buy there instead of heading to GNC or Whole Foods.

As of right now, Product will be sold exclusively through my ecommerce store once up and running. Will make a decision on other sales outlets later.<br />

Goals for the next 24 hours.<br />
<br />
1) Research Prices on all necessary ingredients for my blend.<br />
<br />
2) Investigate sourcing empty 150ml bottles with a screw top from Alibaba or similar sites. Looking for sample of 100 bottles. Quotes for 200, 500, 1000.<br />
<br />
3) Follow up with logo creator. See if he can design label and box.<br />
<br />
4) Investigate information to put on box/label for liability and consumer information. Supplement facts/Branding/Claims etc.<br />
<br />
5) Start gathering local leads for manufacturing.
