They said "just start." Nobody told you these 5 things first.
A lot of people have lost money, lost customers, and almost quit their spice business....Not because they lacked passion, but because they went in head strong doing all the things they were n't supposed to do.
One of my clients bulk created way more than she could handle at a time. Since they were 100percent preservative free, It was only a matter of time before Humidity caught up with the spices.
The pricing mistake of Using competitors price so her customers do not run away.
Having way too many products on the shelf. From curry powder, Fish seasoning, Barbecue marinade, Ginger & garlic powder! She did everything.
She wanted to serve everyone at the same time. What happened? She was left with a lot of products, & People picking them off the shelf slowly
Look around you. There are many Spice businesses making these same mistakes.
Some have given up already.
Trust me, You do not want to get to the edge before you retrace your steps
