Road to Vegas

Hey everyone,

I am going to start a business in the health supplement industry, hopefully very soon. I still have a slowlane job, but I can't see myself working in the corporate world for 40 years. I have a decent salary but the only reasons I keep working there are 1 - to pay the bills and 2 - finance my projects.

The supplement I am planning to design and sell is basically an upgraded and adapted version of another supplement that is only used within a small niche market. If I can adapt it successfully and market it differently, I'll be able to reach a broader audience.

I won't get paid until the first week of October so I can't spend too much, but my goals for the next few weeks are :

08/20 :
- Finish TMF ( I received it yesterday, read 1/3 already )
- Order ingredients I plan to use in my product, and a scale.
- Buy a domain name for my business ( I found a name for my company )

08/30 :
- Evaluate each ingredient separately ( I have personally used most of them, but I need to experiment with others )
- Start trying different formulas
- Do some research on other ingredient to see if I'm not missing on a key component
- Work on my website and brand identity
- Order Unscripted

09/30 :
- Have my formula ready
- Do research on the type of business I should start ( I don't know much about laws in my country about this ), and the paperwork required
- Find a name for my product
- Work on my website and brand identity
- Ask manufacturers for quotes
- Finish Unscripted

Update :

Done :
- Finish TMF --> good read, I was planning on reading in a week, it took me 3 days.
- Order ingredients I plan to use in my product, and a scale --> I'm waiting for my package
- Buy a domain name for my business --> Done, I've done a few things on my website and wrote my first blog post
- Order Unscripted --> Waiting for my package

08/30 :
- Evaluate each ingredient separately
- Start trying different formulas
- Do some research on other ingredient to see if I'm not missing on a key component
- Write 2 other blog posts
- Design the "About" page

My priority here is to develop my product and find the right formula, but I'll also have time to read Unscripted and work on the website.
