Manufacturing your product. The struggle of the first time entrepreneur.

Hello Everyone,

Its been a long time since i blogged last because i have been completely immersed in the manufacturing world. Here are the difficulties in making my product from what i understand. Since my invention is not only a ring, but ring pieces the creation process is very tedious. A manufacturer views it like this - If they have to make a mold (the device that shapes the melted plastic into your product) and spend time for each piece they make, it has to be worth it for them. Meaning if they are selling me pieces at 0.11¢ each and they have to spend a lot of time on it. The amount they need to make and get paid for has to make a profit during time made.
Complicated right?
My product is super tiny so theres little to know money for them to make a small amount. They need to make a large amount, Like 60,000 per piece. And thats only for one size without packaging and printing. And yes this is a china manufacturer.
I have started looking for manufacturers in the US and they seem to have not only higher pricing but also aren't very interested in entrepreneur type deals i.e. small amount to start.

On a positive note i have found and amazing printing company who was not only friendly but got me a quote right away. I need small printing on a curved surface and they are able to do it no problem. Glad that part of it is out of the way. The company is http://www.uniquepadprinting.com/

I'm not giving up though. Still calling everywhere i can, when i can. I'll let you know when i find the manufacturer for me, at a great price!

I'm also excited to announce that I started vlogging! Check it out here  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1em3Pm5WGM4
