REPS: To who can give me a supplement product idea to sell to Costco
I work for a large vitamin distributer. We will soon be bidding on several items to sell into Costco. We are thinking of some good ideas of vitamins/supplements to offer then that they don't already have. Here are the guidelines
1) must be a vitamin/nutritional supplement(pills)
2) should be innovative(where is the market going, what is the new trend?)
3) Not bodybuilding related(but it can be if it will sell, sales are key)
4) must be creative and marketable(people must have some knowledge of it)
I will give reps to anyone who provides a good idea.
If we end up making and presenting the item i will pay you $50
If they buy it, I will pay you $200
Have at it.

I don't know if they carry Vitamin B5, but that's hella good.
Also, a cheap form of ZMA would be good. Costco will lick it right up as a "sleep aid and general health supplement".

My costco doesn't carry any types of fish oils. Try getting some type of fish oil, flax seed oil, Omega complex oil. I'll occassionly go into the GNC in the mall here and someone is ALWAYS getting some type of Omega containing oil and bitching about the price. If costco would sell it, they'd probably make a killing. maybe they do in some markets, but not here at least in the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia.

Anything with Vitamin B in it and/or "anti-oxidants"
I hear a lot of cardio lance armstrong wannabe guys at the gym drinking their green tea stuff.

I've read online that vitamin A, B5 or b complex are good for acne. Try and tell them that to see if they like your company's products
