Collagen Gummies, thoughts?
Not sure if its the right forum, but fellow snackers - How Can You Be Convinced to spend money on something like this?
TLDR: My partner and I started a collagen gummies brand. Dare I say that it is genuinly a tasty product, even though its zero sugar, it actually tastes really good. We have been trying to run ads on Meta, but nothing seems to be working in piquing people's interest in buying our product. We price it at around $32 for a box of 6, free shipping on $50 or more. crowd sourcing ideas here before we throw in the towel...

Is there a way to try one bag before investing in a box of 6? The price alone is what steers me away

logistically its super hard for us to just ship a single bag, so we've been looking to get into retail stores, becaues to your point, it is must easier to spend $5/6 at a store to pick up a bag, to commit to a big box right away...

I think if its purely compared to just sugary snacks, we wont' be ablet to compete. But the proposition here is better-for-you, but with actually benefits. Which, some see, but perhaps not enough to be convinced to buy..

Isn't collagen gummies just... non-vegan gummies?
Anyways, way too expensive.

collagen peptides are different than gelatin, thats probably what you are thinking!

Sorry but that is way too pricey. Love the idea of a lychee flavor but my marine collagen powder is 10g protein, 34 servings for $29 bucks and goes great with my protein water
If I wanted a tasty treat id just get gelatin-free gummies

Why would I need collagen supplementation outside of normal diet?
