Question HI. I have an idea for a bumper sticker I am not promoting anything like a
business or organization. This is just something I thought would be fun and
maybe bring in some extra income. I don't know where to get started. should I
get some printed and go to stores and auto-shops or places in the mall and sell
them and just distribute them myself. Or send in my idea to a company they look
at it and if they like it they sell them in stores and then they pay me for what
ever it is worth. This is something I want to do for fun. Please Help.
Answer Will: Best way to do your business is to do as you mention FIRST: get some printed and sell them yourself to get the sticker out there. After say 6 months or so setup an internet site and"like WOW" they should be selling faster than a scared rabbit running away from a hungry hawk!!!
