Hello,

I need some help. In the last couple of weeks I worked on a concept for a supplement, that I wanted to bring on the market.

I had the idea, because I always had some problems with many supplements, so there was a need, at least for me. After finishing the concept, I started to look for manufacturers (I found more than 70).
I contacted about 15 manufacturers from that list, that looked promising and could probably fulfill my demands.
Five out of these 15 responded, but they cannot make the products I want.

So now I don't know, what to do. I can get the manufacturers to produce similar products to the ones I want, but then these products would not have the most important USP, that I wanted them to have. I don't know, if this is a good idea. The concept without the USP is not as good as I wanted it to be.
(I also haven't tested the idea, so I don't know, if people would buy the products in the first place. I wanted to do some tests after I have all the numbers and know, if it would work or not.)

Should I try to find another manufacturer, that can fulfil my needs (maybe), or should I move on and try to find another idea?

What do you think?

Thanks.
