Hi, I run a small business distributing mainly entheogens and digital scales.
Do any of you guys run a business, if yes what do you sell?
I'm looking to expand into new products/fields so if anyone here can sell me wholesale goods of any kind or happens to live in a country where a certain type of product is very cheap and is thinking of distributing then please let me know. 
Anything considered.
Lets forge some mutually beneficial business contacts! 
Thanks.
Serious business proposals only please. No get rich quick rubbish or illegal scams etc

i am a few months away from starting a printing and screening business.just something small that off shoots from my girls moms seamstress business that my girl works at. she brought it up about 6 months ago and seemed like a great idea. we bought a place and have it almost ready. she will take the orders for me while i work my normal job as a electrician then do all the orders at night when i am out of my real job. suppose i will be tired as hell but with a little luck some real decent cash flow.

I've been thinking about starting an electric scooter store lately. lately i'm seeing more people around my town riding electric scooters. There are a lot of good scooters and manufacturers from china for these things. They're really smart and i think electric vehicles in general would catch on given the chance.

they are the way....but like you say they are being built a lot in various countries, market is flooded before its even made in my opinion. i think a good one is getting into converting cars to electric...i could really see this being popular once the cost goes down. where i am from in canada it was average about $15000 CAD to convert your average type common yanky car. find a way to do it for $5K and i would bet you would have a good line up...

The lion's share of my income comes from managing investment portfolio's of myself as well as family and friends. I don't recommend entering this field unless you have years of experience investing your own money and your losses will constitute your "tuition" if you actually learn the correct lessons from them!
Good luck to you.

I own a newspaper. It's my region's arts, culture, and entertainment paper. I love it, can't imagine a better business than writing, than sharing strange and wonderful stories with the world.
