Default Mailing goats for fun and profit...

Let's say you want to send someone a little gift... Something that will cheer up their day...

What can you do?

One person started a business to help with that... A simple website, and a catchy name was what was needed.

The service's name? "You Goat Mail!"

For $27.99, you can send a plush goat through the mail...

It can even be anonymous! Of course, you can add your own customized message...

I think the person doing this business is doing well - because they're currently all out of goats! There's right now a 1 to 3 week wait to send your goat...

The keys to this business are the cute plush goat, and the catchy phrase (which in itself will induce a smile). If you can think of a catchy phrase along these lines, along with a cute item to send, your idea could catch on, too...

Best wishes!

Dien

Wowee zowee, great find. When we lived in California we raised goats. Mostly Nubian but had other ethnicities (saanen, oberholtzer cross, la mancha) tossed in from time to time. Great animals to have as pets or for dinner.

Our most popular food item was goat ice cream. People loved it. I'll spare the long preacher like tales of all the benefits of goat and only say if you have the room, raise 'em. You'll love 'em.

Oh yeah if I can find the picture of my favorite goat drinking my beer, I'll post it.

Thanks for the goat's head up Dien.
