I'm Thinking Of Making Some Money With A&W Root Beer?

I was looking on Amazon and I saw A&W Root Beer selling for about 30 bucks and I was thinking that it must not be available somewhere in the country or in the world for people to be paying that much for a case of root beer.

Do you think it's a good idea to find out which part of the country or the world it's not available in, make a store around it and advertise it to that specific place? Just wanted to get some opinions on it before I try it out


Thanks.

    It's worth figuring out. Buy a couple cases from Costco or Sams and see how it goes.

    If you're selling on Amazon you will need to apply to become Ungated in the Food category before selling.

      Thank you for the advice; I was doing research and found that a bunch of countries don't have access too it. Gonna try and make a Shopify store around that.


      I might just stick to the Steampunk Niche, I don't know though, still deciding

        I checked and many of the sodas are overpriced on Amazon, lol. I would definitely do it, if you can charge shipping rates to allow for a decent profit. Follow the money.

    Absolutely.
    I was living in Brazil for 8 years and made my money selling 1 hair product online and a hangover cure tablet via individual websites, eBay and Amazon hair product only).

    It literally paid for me, the wife and two daughters. We had a house, car, holidays back to Europe and a great life purely from sales.

    Downside is that we had to leave it all there (sold the sites) as we couldn't source the prods back in Europe, so after nearly a decade living the online dream I'm stuck with nothing but freelancing - which is killing me.

    Anyone got any ideas for me?

    Focus on your target market with specific location(e.g. city, state) in mind for this have a lesser competition.
