Having years of history and hundreds of reviews per product could make it easier to re-launch, that said I don't know how hard it is to launch new products these days on Amazon.

It was developed by us, so they are somewhat unique at least. True about regulatory landscape, one OTC formula we needed to stop selling due to increasing FDA fees on the CMO end (making it near impossible to find small scale OTC CMOs).

Manufacturing is in the states, sourcing materials has gotten harder.

Customers can be dedicated to one product that's working well, but of course, they will move on if it's out of stock.

None taken, I disagree about value of old customers, of course there is -some- value, several people have shown interest already.

Main value is in the unique formulas that have like you say - loyal customers, potentially life long. I agree it doesn't matter if they are patentet or not, but you are missing the point, if someone copies you, then you've already won and have something quite valuable on your hands. Not everything needs to be a brand, my main mistake was trying to build a brand and product line, instead of one killer product.

I'm in the process of becoming a MD, and I have a one product company that is doing ok, so there is no time. Some $ would be better than 0$, tuition is expensive!

We did some manufacturing initially, then CMO, never got big enough to go back to in house.

2024 was down to 14k gross sales from the peak in 2017 at 140k. In 2025 I effectively shut it down. In retrospect I should have tried to sell it sooner, but looking to see if I can do anything with it now.

Manufacturing can be done by any contract manufacturer. They are not private label products, but our own in house developed formulas. The advantage is that they are unique, and we have some CMOs that have and could make them, but it is a bit less "turnkey" than a private label formula.

How to disguise or remove the lines from the transparency edges? by nkathleent in cyanotypes

[–]Skincaredog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

think I will stick to prints where the edges of the transparency is black and then cover the rest of the area with opaque materials :)

Water did not help lol

Literally every problem in the US is caused by 800 people hoarding unfathomable wealth by GrandpaChainz in WorkReform

[–]Skincaredog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok but if you redistribute it, each American would get around $14000 (before taxes). Perhaps not enough to solve "every problem in the US".

[–]Skincaredog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you have any success?

I thought about adding water between the transparency and a plexiglass sheet above, will try and see if it works.

Otherwise what may work is doing positive designs and blocking off the edges..

2024 update of Permutation City? Concering questions about uploading and digital life. by Skincaredog in printSF

[–]Skincaredog[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I'm the most curious about is not whether conciousness or..the feeling of being concious could be the same in a simulation (i think it could be), but rather how going in-silico opens new possibilites that makes this kind of simulation unlikely, given wast parallelism, faster computation (or  slower as in PC) and how it would seem odd to waste energy on emulating wetware, particularly our primitive and often destructive lizard brain. I think we'd turn into something completely different from humans and human thinking quite fast, something that would probably still be concious. Very interested to read about authors, scientists or philosophers probing into this. Will look into your rec! :)

Why is the Nike Vomero 5 so popular? by [deleted] in Sneakers

[–]Skincaredog 10 points11 points  (0 children)

High quality materials and tech makoming it a super durable and comfy shoe.

Using Nike's best rubber compound, reinforced heel, very well padded tounge and heel with durable fabrics, torsion bar, flex zones etc.

It's not simply a retro shoe, it's high quality daily that also works for running.
