My friend and I wanted to start making dog treats to sell. We both work for the same company in different cities (a pet food store), although I JUST started there. She has a bit more pull with her boss and we were thinking of asking him, once the treats are ready, if they would be interested in launching the product there. If not, we have a few more leads we can go with. After the dog treats launch, we are going to monitor the progress and then possibly branch out into cat treats as well.
I wanted to do a poll to see what people are looking for in a dog treat. Please select all that are important to you and feel free to add something else in the comments. The poll ends next Friday at midnight.
What got us started on this is that both of us own and know people that have dogs with allergies, intolerances, etc that can't have "normal" treats. The ones they can have start to get really expensive, some are almost $10 for a really small bag. We won't have a price point until we actually make some but since this is more of a hobby for us than an actual business we're going to keep our profit on the lower side so that the treats can be sold at a reasonable price. Our goal is to make a high quality treat at a Milk Bone price.
Thanks for all your help!
