Creative Marketing

Many times when we see a new product that is a great idea, it is so incredibly simple that anyone could have thought of it. With that said, I really can't believe that there aren't already the following two products available.

The first idea came to me after using the Swiffer Sweeper on my new wood floor a few years ago. My kids are always running on the wood floor and seeing how far they can slide. So, I thought why not combine the two and the kids can clean the floor while they have fun!

Introducing--- SWIFFER SOCKS!! I know I would buy them.....


This weekend I thought of another new product that I'm sure would be a big hit. Our boys, like most boys, love to play with their toy guns. They have water guns, cap guns, Nerf guns and airsoft guns. The airsoft guns use the little plastic pellets that end up all over your yard. Eventually they would probably blow away or roll into the gutter (I'm not sure exactly where they go).

Imagine this: having an airsoft pellet that is biodegradable, filled with fertilizer, preen, weed and feed, or whatever other product you spread around your yard! I think it's a brilliant idea. The kids would be playing and beautifying the yard at the same time. I don't know about your family, but here that is an oxymoron. When they are playing, something is getting destroyed, if you know what I mean. This would be a way to correct that. I think the folks over at Preen just might agree.

Those are million dollar ideas for sure! I really like the air soft idea (my son loves airsoft too). I know they make biodegradable pellets but they're more expensive, of course. Mixing them with fertilizer is a great idea.
