Xavier say if mi can jamaicanize mi "announcement" den mi can advertise

I personally would not buy the snack thing. The birb cloth i would buy but it look pricey. I think i could get 2-4 for that price no ? its been a while since i bought baby stuff.

I didnt notice a detail product description. I would suggest you add that.
you need to convince the potential customer that they NEED this snack bag and its way cooler/better/more convenient/more economical than their current method. Mabye do a few videos u know everybody want to see things in action these days.

sell me....why would i ditch my ziploc bags (which are reusable and inexpensive if lost/damaged) why not used my tupperware or other snack container.

How does this work for toddler feeding them self? things like that....tell my why i should not go to the dollarstore or walmart and pick up a pencil case.

hope you take this as constructive criticism bcus ur products does have potential. More yardies are online an buying stuff abroad than u may think dem just affi hear bout yuh even mi granny phone can go pan internet.

if you want to market to jamaicans a yard....please consider ants factor. i just thought about it some more and right away mi say ants ago tek it up. I find dat mi affi have air tight container fi every Jesas chris ting or mi affi put in in the fridge. yuh no mind shawt ants all inna di fridge to

i immediately thought of ziploc for the insides - they're cute as all get out - but you'd have to wash after every use. a soh?

thanks vegas and sue. I haven't had much time to work on them. even the pricing was a first stab at it. I made a few more with other fabrics and just need to load the pics.

vegas, as for selling them, I may need to make my reduce, reuse, recycle pitch a little louder. but at the same time, the people who typically look for these are already on that bandwagon so style and price would be the determining factor if they found the shop.

the bags are lined with ripstop. the same thing they use for lots of durable camping equipment. I will work on highlighting that too. it won't keep out ants if you have an infestation and it certainly won't keep food fresh like Ziploc caw air come in. is a same day use kinda deal. alex use dem and know how fi open the Velcro. I thought of taking pics of him digging into his snack pouch

sounds like you got it figured out. hope you do well.

FT from a farrin perspective the prices are comparable to other's out there ... and pretty reasonable too. I not environmentally friendly like that but I going link it to some people who may be interested. Is the liner BPA/PVC free (if yes include that in your description "some of us like to know that) also can you do a package so there is a savings for multiples of the snack bags?

what are your shipping costs like? do you know a "small business" in the shipping business that you could team up with?

*tongue and cheek* - don't you have a segway?

[FrenchTickla]
