Description:
I just spent a long time living in the Brentwood area of LA running a Cold Stone and sales were so low because everyone wanted to stay skinny. So I created a line of Skinny Shakes for our stores there, and they took (URL removed)er 300 cals, added vitamins and tasted amazing. I was looking at cliff bars and vitamin waters one day and none of them have 100% of everything, just bits and pieces. So I worked with a couple of private chefs, dissected those other bars and came up with the Skinny Bar. These things are incredible. I sampled them around LA and got rave reviews, but I didnt have enough money to fill giant orders to stock shelves with. I need someone to invest around 3-6,000 dollars to help start up buying everything in bulk and using a contract packaging/bakery to get this thing going full force.
I have a background in Business Marketing and Print Graphics from University of Massachusetts-Boston and have worked with many small successful businesses in the past. Feel very strong about this one.
