SMALL BUSINESS ADVICE How do I go to market with just one product

I have a manufactured a luxury kitchen product but it is the only one I have as of yet. Who do I approach first?Will my company be taken seriously with just one product. I know Microsoft only had one when they started but that was for a mass market and mine is niche.I would like to sell it through retailers globally rather than directly from my site as I only have one product. Any sound business advice will be greatly appreciated.Thanks in Advance
      Answer1:what about going on Dragons Den or visiting their website
      Answer2:With only one product to sell, its easier for you to focus on that as your niche. By using the power of the web to market, you can start working on getting your site to rank under keywords directly related to your product, and people searching for it will be able to find it.
      Answer3:patent firstthen approach stores about stocking your product and get your site running properly aswell--- you may want funding from an investor at this point ---then mass manufacturewait and see what happens
      Answer4:One is a start.
      Answer5:I dont see a problem with selling it from your site. Many websites market only one product...think of all the "Learn How To" courses that are out there.Get it on your site, go to flea markets and do demos, perhaps home shows, see if you can get on your local news channel (or in the paper) as a "local inventor creates...Give several away (or lend for x days) to users and ask for testimonials
      Answer6:Dear Friend,I am looking for some partners to join hands to achieve win-win cooperation. I wonder if you have interest in running your own Interracial dating site or work-at-home business. I would like to set it up for you at no cost . You can earn money if you can get users registering at your dating site. Please feel free to contact me marketingmanager008@gmail.com for details.DaveMarketing representative
      Answer7:Hi there,Every Business has to start somewhere and I believe you are right to concentrate on your first product at this stage. As an Internet Marketer I know of people that have only had 1 product and gone onto make hundreds of thousands of £$.If you would like to know a bit more by all means take a visit to the source below.I wish you every luck with your venture - the only way to safeguard your future is to own your own Business.RegardsJon Lake

Can someone with legal experience regarding the new Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act answer this

I am a Work-At-Home-Mom. I make custom baby carriers and sell them. Each of my carriers is one-of-a-kind. I buy my fabric from nationally trusted retailers such as JoAnn Fabrics, etc. I do not buy loads of fabric since I make them on an order-by-order basis (so I can customize for my buyer). How is the CPSIA going to affect me in particular? I am not the one importing the fabric or thread. Shouldnt my supplies be tested before I buy them? Also, even if they are tested, I usually only buy fabric remnants instead of whole reels. It would be ridiculous for me to ask for certificates for 1 yard of fabric. I feel like this whole thing is going to put me, and a whole bunch of others like me, out of business. How can I possibly afford to have each and every one of my baby carriers tested for lead?BACKGROUND INFO:Congress passed a law in August 2008 called the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA). This law came about because of the numerous recalls of childrens toys in the past two years and specifically the issue of lead in the toys. While I applaud the attempt at making childrens products safer, the law as stands, will actually remove many of the products that we have turned to in place of those made in China.As of February 10th, 2009, ALL childrens products sold in the United States will need to be certified to be lead free and many products will need additional testing. To be certified, the final product sold needs to have each component on it tested for lead. This sounds wonderful when you think of all of the "Made in China" childrens products that are out there and all of the childrens items that are mass produced (mostly imported). HOWEVER, think of the handcrafted items sold within the US. Think of any childrens item that is a ready made item that has been personalized with a childs name (it would need to be retested because it is the final sold product that needs to be certified). Think of the childrens items that are sold at craft shows, garage sales, ebay, consignment shops and fundraisers. As of February 10th, it will be illegal to sell any childrens products without certification, no matter when it was produced. Collectible vintage toys and trains? A "banned substance". You will not be able to donate items for charity because they are a "banned substance" since they are not certified. This applies not only to toys, but all products such as books, shoes, clothing, school supplies, sporting equipment, jewelry, etc. that are possibly intended for children 12 and under..--Answer1:Write to your congress person and your states senators. Ask them to sponsor a bill exempting domestic craft products from testing provided that the components are lead free. Then contact everyone you know and know of involved in making and selling domestic craft products and ask them to do the same thing.If enough people write enough members of congress corrective action will be taken.Hope this helpsJerry-the-bookkeeper
