The Struggles of Running a Supps Biz
Niche Weekly 03/12/2025
Hey there,
Happy Wednesday, and welcome back to Niche Weekly. Thank you so much for being subscribed, and for reading! š
This week has been full of LOTS of decisions and has been a stressful yet important time for Niche!
Hereās what I have for you this week:
One Flavor Release
Manufacturing Struggles
Container Design
Shakers / Packaging / Biz Cards
One Flavor Release
As you saw in last weekās email, and on our Instagram, we revealed our first 3 flavors.
However, you mightāve seen that we did a vote to determine which flavor we wanted to release first.
This is because although weāre super excited to drop, and have everyone try our lemonade, fruit punch, and mango pineapple flavors, we want to ensure that our formula and flavors are perfect before releasing them!
So, I picked the (in my and many othersā opinions) BEST flavor to start Niche off with.
Mango Pineapple š„š
Itāll be releasing soon! (Likely in April) and the other 2 flavors will follow soon after!
As much as I wanted to drop all 3 flavors to start, I donāt want to rush production and want to focus on creating a quality product. š¤©
Manufacturing Struggles
I said in last weekās newsletter that our first order would be placed this week!
However, as I also spoke on, weāve had some hurdles to clear before placing it.
The decision to only go with one flavor for our first inventory order was one delay on the manufacturing of Niche, but other issues also make this process take longer, like price negotiations with my manufacturer, and also ensuring everything is perfect for the formula, packaging, and branding before sending over the cash!
Iāve been working diligently at getting this order placed ASAP, and promise that it wonāt be too much longer, and Iāll have an estimate on the release date soon!
Thank you for your patience! š«
Container Design
One thing weāve been putting a lot of thought into lately, with the first order around the corner, is the container design for Niche!
Weāre thinking of going with a very simplistic, and clean design. Similar to the ingredients in Niche!
Hereās some inspiration from other supplement companies that weād like the packaging to look similar to:



Weāll keep you updated as we continue the design process!š
Shakers / Packaging / Biz Cards
Another few details weāve been working hard at are:
Shakers: Niche branded. Which we want to offer for sale but also include for free in our pre-workout orders!
Packaging: We want to go all out and provide premium packaging. Weāve been messing with concepts with different high-quality boxes.
Biz Cards: We need business cards in general! But we also want to include business cards that have perks and discounts in your orders of Niche!
Thatās all I have for you this week!
Thank you for reading!
Iāll talk to you next Wednesday,
