How hard is it to get into the supplement business and make money with it? If I had $100k I could afford to shell out, is that enough? Do you make any money? I’d assume someone else labels and bottles it for you, you hire some BB for maybe $10k of that to pimp it. What else is there, is protein the go to?
You'd get ate up, lots try and fail.
Singerman and lots of others got in at a good time. Year ago, there was a book - Androgens and Anabolic Agents by Vida that listed lots of orphaned drugs. Lots of old timers knew the book and other sources for things, but were afraid to do anything with it because of the FDA, DEA, etc.... Well, some started to dip their toes in during the year late 90's, early 2000's, and nothing happened.
Then the Prohormone craze hit, and everyone went to the Vida book and dragged out every orphaned steroid, and sold it as a prohormone. Some got banned, but the nature of the laws back then allowed for a tweaking of the molecules, etc.... for it to be perfectly legal again till the FDA banned that version. Then if everything in that family got banned, you just found a new thing in Vida, and ran with it.
Sledge, Gaspari, CEL, IronMag, RPN, BSL all made money hand over fist with the prohormone scheme. The smart guys all took their money and left or pivoted into other things like energy supps and drinks.
BSL only got smacked hard because they kept trying to sell prohormones (steroids) after they were told multiple times to stop.
We'll never see another era like the prohormone one, that's where fortunes were made.
