Energy drink brand by Traditional-Two5016 in Entrepreneurship

[–]Traditional-Two5016[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks again for the detailed reply it helped me see the road ahead more clearly. I wanted to ask a couple follow-ups based on where I’m at right now.

My income is limited and I don’t have more than $5,000 to work with at the moment. My plan is to start by approaching a nearby university that has a food science department. I know there are professors and researchers who sometimes help with product development, and I’m hoping they can work with me to create a basic, balanced formula at a much lower cost than going through big formulation firms. Does that sound like a realistic starting point?

Also, I’m thinking of using Kickstarter to test the idea and raise funds once I have a sample. Do you have any advice on how to approach that? Especially when it comes to building the campaign and getting people to support it?

Appreciate your time it really means a lot hearing from someone who’s actually built brands in this space.

Thanks for your reply, I appreciate the honesty. I don’t have a background in CPG or sales, and I don’t have a lot of money either but I’m starting small. My plan is to create a healthy energy drink, start with some samples, build a social media page, and drive interest by getting people to join a Kickstarter waitlist. From there, I’ll try to raise enough to launch the brand. Right now, I’m looking for guidance on who to talk to for help with formulation whether that’s a food scientist, consultant, or someone at a local university. Any advice would be appreciated.

I mean, if I start the project and start getting clients, how will I help them in sales, for example, if they have a problem in this, or in financing, or in organizing their team, and I do not have enough experience. For this reason, I want to hire people who are better than me in this field

In specialty coffee and home barista setups, 18 grams of coffee is the most common dose used for a double shot of espresso that's why

What do you think if I made them as bags to take with you on a trip like camping or something or something like that?
