Personal blends

I'm thinking about getting into the DIY process of making juice.

One thing that crossed my mind is, if I do make a juice that many people find appealing, is it really difficult to be able to start up a miniature business to be able to get this juice to the masses?

Obviously people have done this, and it seems like "signature" flavors and the desire for them are on the rise. Would this be a cost effective small business, or something better left as a hobby? Just looking for opinions.

Thank you.

I can't even make one I like let alone someone else.

If you can make good juice and make a little business out of it, do it!! I think it's a fabulous idea.

DIY can be a very cheap alternative than buying pre made liquids. However in order to be a more popular vendor, you've got to invest a lot of money in different flavorings, mixes, and quality control. The big question is what makes you different from the other companies? For example, want2vape has extracted cigar liquids. No other company extracts from a real specific cigar brand. Kick Bass Vapor has spent tons of money buying the same flavorings from different companies in order to achieve the best flavors. Some companies like Ahulsion and Highbrow Vapor actually make their own natural flavorings in house (highbrow is in cali and they use the pomegranate tree in their yard for their pomegranate juice).

In other words there's a whole lot of companies on here that are mediocre while others are really popular or rising in popularity. You might want to contact a few of those companies to see how much investment and time they put into their company. I know a few that would be great resources because they're great people (Bob and Missy at Kickbass Vapor, Todd at Vaperite, Bryan at Highbrow)

You might ask Illustrated_Man, who has a small juice business and is an ECF registered supplier.

(BTW, his Poached Pear juice is very good)
