So as I continue my entrepreneur research. I keep running into valueless, scamming, ripoff products. Its just like these businesses are providing no value yet becoming millionaires.
Some examples:
1) I believe it was the brand Paul Mitchell, marketing soap or shampoo and it only had fragranc. No detergent. Marketed as soap. Providing no value to the customers. Customers believed they were cleaning their hair, but were only putting fragrance on it.
2) Adding bubbles to soaps/shampoos. No actual value. It just givesthe pereception to the customer that they are getting a thorough cleanse, but in reality the bubbles don't do anything
3) Was looking into private labeling Castor oil. A popular use now is to put it on your eyebrows for them to grow denser. Scenario: Person wants to grow eyebrows --> searches web --> Castor oil comes up --> Searches amazon for "Castor oil eyebrows" --> products that come up are very tiny bottles of castor oil marketed specifically towards eyebrows. If you search just"Castor oil" in amazon you get nearly 10x the amount of the small bottle for the exact same price. The people selling the castor oil tiny bottles are technically ripping people off, there is no value created. Customer gets tiny bottle of overpriced castor oil
This kinda stuff upsets me a hell of al ot and making me think why don't I just do this and live the life I want. Feel like a scummy person though
