An idea stimulator.
 

I like to browse through these sort of catalogs, maybe you would too?

No affiliation and the index is clickable. Enjoy.

One idea:
 

It is a BIG world out there, with all kinds of ways to profit, prosper and grow.

This June, in Chicago, is the big grocery show, I've attended twice, should have 30k in attendance. Trade shows still get lots of traffic, just want to expand our vision, make sure we don't get too myopic on current talks, cause there are 1001 ways to do what you love and make some moolah too.

Thanks Gordon,

It's a very interesting website!

I found the pages a little bit slow to load... Maybe it's my connection...

However, I think you could learn a lot, and find some opportunities, by going through it...

Best wishes,

Hi Gordon,

I've been to a couple manufacturing trade shows where I am... I learned a lot about manufacturing processes. I haven't built on this info yet, but it's opened my eyes to a whole new world of opportunity...

Secondly, I knew a guy who invented a new kind of circular saw guide. He paid to have a whole bunch of them manufactured, and made most of the sales of his device at trade shows... They can be good places especially for new products for that market, which you have a "toll position" on...

Best wishes,

Dien
