50+ Little Known Business Ideas ----- #1----- D Day Sand Souvenier

Hi Team,
 
At Mentors Club... we really do believe in helping our members earn multiple streams of income. So starting today.... I am posting the first of 50+ different little known business ideas for free. (some people are paying $17+ a month for these same articles through a membership site)
 
If you read an idea that excites you... I encourage you to spend a little bit of time seeing how you can improve upon the idea. Or... take the concept of the business and apply it to another niche. Then like with anything else... you have to take action. In other words... you have to set your business goals, plan your daily activities & then go to work :  )  
 
===================
Idea #1     D Day Sand Souvenier
 
June 6, 1944 marked a turning point in World War II, signifying the beginning of the end of Hitler's reign of terror over Europe.  Of the more than 150,000 Allied troops to land on the beaches of Normandy, France, that historic summer day, more than 4,500 were killed.  June 6 is a day the world pauses to remember all those who never came home and those who returned to their loved ones forever changed.

Millions have visited the beaches of Normandy, and thousands more make the trek to the coast of France every year.  Still, there are many who cannot make the long voyage overseas, yet want to somehow connect with that pivotal period of history. 

D-Day Sand Souvenirs are the ideal gift for anyone who wants a precious piece of world history. Selling tiny bottles of sand collected from the beaches of Normandy allows customers to purchase a piece of history, a priceless gift.

The first thing you'll need to do is determine how you're going to obtain sand from the beaches-Gold, Juno and Omaha-of Normandy. Will you visit there yourself? If so, make sure to check into importing requirements. You can start your research at the United States Custom Service's webpage.

If you can't actually travel to Normandy, you'll need to find someone who will or someone in France who is willing to obtain the quantity you desire then ship them to you. 

You'll want to put the sand in tiny bottles with a label denoting the beach the sand came from: Juno, Omaha or Gold.  You can probably find tiny bottles at your local home improvement store or by doing an online search. Here are a few sites to help you begin your search:  Specialty Bottle, BizRate and Proactive Packaging.

You can market the D-Day Sand Souvenirs in any number of ways, depending on what your preferred marketing technique is. You can sell them at a booth at craft fairs or rent a kiosk at your local mall. You may want to place advertisements in local publications or sell them to local gift or novelty shops. If there are any local World War II museums in your town, you may want to ask that the sand souvenirs be stocked in their shop.

==================

If you like the above idea... you have enough time to put all the pieces of your business and products together to be ready for this years June 6 anniversary. Your Mentors Club Success Library is full of great marketing ideas that you can use for this type of business.

Blessings,

Many times we are looking externally to make it happen: wheather is is a great business opportunity or something to generate a seven figure income. I have just realized that what I have spent years looking for was also looking for me. It was already inside of me. My great Bishop once said, "when the student is ready, the Master will appear". I am ready and everything that I need to be a milionaire plus is also ready. Glory to my Heavenly Father. These blogs are great.
