Hello,What kind of research did you do to determine that people wanted a mold of a President? I am pretty surprised at the amount of work that you have put into this. I hear you saying that you are having a hard go at this. I don't think that this is a normal item that someone is going to wake up and say that they have to go out and get. I am wondering what I would do to market this item. I think it is restricted to a small segment that would want these. Can you help me out here? How did you determine that there was a demand for this item? If you could get a bust of President Obama, that would definitely sell, imho. It would be a real novelty item, and with his historic win, I bet lots of people will be offering this. Hum....I bet you could even get local coverage from the tv stations on what you are doing if you get his bust added to your collection. Now, is this a good way to tie in what you are doing to today's political climate? I think so, and I would bet my roaster it would be a hit.Annettewww.chocolatesandthings.blogspot.com
