Should I start a Drink Business? in c/entrepreneur@indiehackers.space

First, wow! Congrats on taking the leap! The soda sounds awesome. When it comes out let me know, I’ll try to pick up a case.

Thanks for all the information! The price per flavor is also super good info. I’d probably start with three as-well!

Yeah I’m actually starting the process of creating the “brand” before getting the drink so I know what more of a directions I’m going and also get started more on the business side first(trademarking and creating a logo/website; all still new to me).

Also dang, i didn’t realize 15k cans wouldn’t even be close to enough haha. Investor money would suck(eating your profits directly) but its grow the biz and also get you more money in the long run too(which im sure you know).

Best of luck to you! Would it be okay to reach out during the process if I have questions?

I mean I’d get all my ducks in a row and like i said, start small and order a few batches just to test the market to see if its a good idea or not

Hey everyone,

Just want some general opinions about starting a bev company. Im really passionate about drinks and feel like I could have a product that fills a niche or might just be a good beverage in general.

I read previous post about needing capital because of production/distribution/marketing. Most people saying you’ll just fail and waste money.

My plan would be to spend around 50k for formula creation and the first assortment/marketing. Think this is enough? I’d also do local events/festivals with booths and check local stores to see if they’d carry my product.
