Recipe for Success!!
Take an onion, (the grower received about one penny for this baby)
slice it, dip the rings in batter, deep fry them, put a dozen rings on a plate
(you get 10 orders per onion) 
and    Like Magic
The onion  now sells for
$40.00  (plus tip)

A small pile of chicken wings is also transformed into high value ($5.95) with a little spice and some clever marketing.

And then there is
Bottled Water!

Forest Managers - WAKE-UP

We sell our wood for pennies, then pay high retail prices when we shop.
Why not take a lesson from other businesses - there is a lot of value in our forest that we can take advantage of ourselves.....
Forest owners can now sell their timber as value-added products.
    Kiln Dry lumber sales can produce 8 times the income - compared to selling trees.
  Rustic plank flooring can produce 20 times the income of selling pallet logs.
    Furniture and cabinets can produce 30 times the income - compared to stumpage.
    Wooden pens can produce $500 per board foot from figured wood scraps.
    Shiitake mushrooms can return a hundred dollars from a small ironwood log.
   
Direct sales bring retail prices back to the producer.
The only limitation is your imagination

Watch what other people sell,  adapt the best ideas to your situation, and have some fun!                    home
