Update on what I've been working on lately.
1. Step Kickers will be available soon. Production parts are on their way to me for assembly.
I've been looking into sourcing a few items from Asian manufacturers that I don't have to build myself to further diversify my Honda product offerings. I'm very specific though and as usual consider quality over price.
1. New hats are coming soon.
2. New mesh trail trash bags are coming soon.
3. Looking into a bag to go between the front seats. These are rather expensive to buy in required quantities so this may be an early Spring item. A sample has been ordered for quality, fit and practical use review.
For the people that may not understand the logistics of running a micro business like mine, it's a real pain sometimes. I'll use the Step Kickers for example. I have a vendor for the sheet metal parts, a vendor for the tube parts, a vendor for the bolts, a vendor for paint. Finally assembly is done by me. Shipping boxes are needed and instructions must be written. Being a one person operation with a normal day job, you can see that this is all time consuming...but I like it. The day this business hits a salary supporting level, I'm checking out of this day job!
As of today, intake kits and seat risers make up the majority of my sales. Resale products will increase cash flow without increasing my involvement too much so I can work on developing new products that I probably will have to build because no one else makes them yet. I've got a few new 2024 ideas sketched out that require much refinement. Design is what I LIKE to do!!
Thanks to everyone who has and continues to support me. I have big goals and you all are a big help to reach them.
