![]() Here's an excerpt of a story I wrote for The Business Fastlane and just got reprinted in
Spare Time Magazine RETRO CRAZE BRINGS In 3,000 ORDERS/MONTH Are you old enough to remember eating Jiffy Pop StoveTop popcorn, Sugar Babies or Necco Wafer candies? What about those wax lips or wax mini bottles? About 5 years ago, 45 Year Old Colleen Chapin moved from Wisconsin to sunny Florida. She liked the move but was unhappy she couldn't find her favorite candy in her new state. She called some candy suppliers and not only located her favorite, but other long forgotten candies she hadn't eaten since she was a kid. That gave he an idea. Supply "retro" candy to baby boomers they used to enjoy as kids. She lined up suppliers, created a website and launched her new "retro" candy business right out of her house. It's been a sweet success :-) She now has over 400 products and sales are approaching $1 million a year and she recently moved into a new spacious warehouse. http://www.hometownfavorites.com/ What favorite memory from your past can you turn into a profitable business?
