We already contacted Sirius and XM radios, as well as appointing a salesman, to begin negotiations with the truck stop chains.

I do believe this is going to be our second strongest, if not our strongest, market. Truckers put in long, boring hours and could use a safe, legal stim.
 
im just sad we gotta wait 6 weeks, i love chewing gum and have always liked cinamon gum, add a low dose stim (compared to many) and a potent thermogenic to the experience and you cant go wrong.

I'm glad it wont have too much caffeine per serving as i'll likely be chewing it throughout the day and like the extra pep in my step, but hate being overstimmed.
 
I could see going lower on the geranamine since many gum chewers chew throughout the day.
 
UPDATE: Due to my manufacturer handling "another" energy gum, they are just grabbing a sign-off from the other company. The markets don't overlap...yet...so we should be good to go.

Pricing looks solid so far, and we are all ready to go on this end.

I wanted to do a plastic dispenser (like the new Mentos gum) but I think pricing is going to limit the 10 pack to a cardboard-type box.


Looking good...so far between our EU market, the new Asian distributor, and the interest domestically we have a lock on around 200,000 units a month.

This is mindblowing...and I will make sure you all are not disappointed.

This is big!
 
So presumably this is easy on the enamel? What sweetener do you plan on using? Xylitol seems like the solid choice but perhaps you have something better?

Bring it:food:
 
Have to keep an eye on the latest status report on ThermoGum. Products with such potential are not formulated daily! :D
 
Is ThermoGum still on track?

Still on track. Inquiries still continuing to come in at record pace, as well.

I'm glad I got a jump on this one, though...if I had announced too early, chances are some unscrupulous company would have knocked off the idea right away.

As it is, it took me close to 2 years of hard work to find a company able to make this at my standards.

DSADE you gonna sell us some betas? You know how much we love betas. :)

The time difference between betas and final is insignificant. The actual final run time is only 1 day.

I'm not even sure how much of the test batch they are going to send me...likely only a dozen pieces or so.
 
I just got the best update I could have ever hoped for.

ETA? Soon...very soon

I want some I'm thinking around 20 packs to keep and give out. I love you guys Dsade and the rest of RPN keep it up.

Thanks, my friend. I'm going to try and put together some large cases (24 packs) for direct sale from the RPNonline website.

RPNEurope.com has also contributed GREATLY to the product's immediate release, and will have stock right away.

And, as always, Nutra will likely have the best deals on the net.

We're waiting on the merchant account to be set up to support the shopping cart function. It will be both an informational repository, as well as a source for unique things direct from the company (12 packs of Java Lather, beta products, wicked stacks, etc.).

when should NP get it
Click to expand...

Ingredients are arriving today. First stage is checking texture (the RKs are VERY light and fluffy - and granular - which makes texture and mouth feel top priority.

Second stage will start with Flavor. Caffeine is very difficult to cover up, the preference being on cinnamon with a raspberry undertone.

The rest of the product is exceedingly easy, but these first two steps are crucial. I paid a comparatively LARGE amount of money to buy 3 separate trial runs AFTER the QC experts are satisfied - which means I get their best initial batch with two additional "tweaks".

Not quite...but my production samples will be finished.

Hmm...let's see - I'll only need about 50-60 pieces for evaluation on this end. That will leave a few left over. Whatever should I do with them?

No way to know until Friday.

I sent a LOT of material for the test batch, and they have a minimum number they have to run. Might be as many as 500 extra. :)

Sell them in packs of five or ten, on a first-come, first-served basis.
