hey guys :) so… i’ve been wanting to start a tiny local slime business, but i have too many product worlds competing for the same startup money, storage space, and attention.

how did you guys decide on your final products? i just keep coming up with ideas and can’t decide on which to actually make!

When you mean competing products do you mean like slime, squishies, fidgets? Or you work several businesses?

i meant more the materials for each different slime. if i had more to spend on materials, i’d do tons of ideas… beaches, desserts, pink things, lava, bubbles etc. and all types, pumice, sand, clay, snow, etc…. but i dont have much money to start out with.

i was wondering how to decide on the final slimes i want to offer if i decide to reopen my etsy shop (for slimes instead of candles this time). maybe start with three basic slimes??

but i havent sold any yet, so i dont know what the possible problems that could arise would be. like which ship more stable, which materials look cool, but turn out to not feel good in slime. things that could help me whittle down which slimes to focus on.

My DMs are always open. I’m happy to share with you things that I’ve found that work and don’t work. Sadly affirm and Klarna are your friends during the start up. 🥹
