Starting a greeting card company

**bmiles** · 06-01-2006 01:55 PM

I am interested in starting my own brand of greeting cards. I have some ideas of how to go about it, but I have come across some obstacles. I want to add music to my greeting cards, but I am not sure as to where I would get the mini internal speakers to play the music. Do I have to hire a technology company? Who could provide this? Is there some way I could buy the needed equipment for cheap? How much would it cost.
I would appreciate any advice that would steer me towards my goal

They already make the set up. You can buy the chip and speaker online by a secondary seller and attach to your own card if you want. I would suggest seeking out the manufacturer who is probably in Asia SOMEWHERE. You need it CHEAP to make a profit and maintain any margin.

One suggestion, have CHEAP cards. I would love to be a sweet guy and go and buy my girlfriend a "I love you and appreciate you" card, but $2+ per card is just too much!

Make some nice $.50 cards, or a package of them that I can hide away, just make sure they are different not all of the same card, lo.
