Be prepared to not make money for the first few batches you produce. You gotta give out crazy samples and do mad promotion. You also need to focus on a certain demographic

You need to start product development on a small scale.....do you have a garage or utility unit where u can produce your product?

Because its gonna be very costly and wasteful to seek a distillery to subcontract your work if you haven't done some in house production

I knew a white boy who started out making homemade vodka I met at my past job.moonshine and wine at his mom's garage the equipment was affordable he got it off ebay followed some youtube tutorialson and went to some craft convention with SAMPLES and is now courting the attention of big time distributors who will split costs of distilling the liquor

Bang for the buck
varieties of flavours. perhaps go for some less common flavours that are still piff.
price range can't be too cheap, but not too high (obviously). you wanna give it that premium feel without it actually costing premium. clearly easier said than done tho.

Study the market you are targetting first

What will be ur leverage in this market? Price? Quality?

Once u have that go into productions costs... r u buyin it from someone else or r u producing it yourself? Distribution: will u do it yourself or will u need to hire someone or a company

Once u have the margins of profit and if its a good deal start thinking about marketing...

We've done all that all we need is the actual making of the product like where can we make/manufacture it

What's your competitive advantage? Do.college kids buy on taste or price? Like someone else said you should come up with a flavor or gimmick like the skull bottle. Shape it like all hookah or a bong or something

Bonus- I read somewhere that you should make your bottle tall so the bar manager will be forced to put your stuff on the top shelf

If you want to keep costs down I suggest not manufacturing yourself......

The best Vodka is made in Russia , If it were me I would source a manufacturer in Russia that makes cheap vodka, buy wholesale slap my own brand name on it and look for distributors....


red bull dont actually make red bull.
