I would be a great poster child for your products Dan. Not only do I use them and love them, they have really worked wonders for my skin. Anytime you need a sales rep, or endorser…that would be me Keep up the excellent work.

I wish your products would come to stores you would be making alot money and be helpping people at the same time! You been out for a while I don’t see why your not global now! Everybody I know I tell them how my face got clear! It would be nice if you had Acne.org stores in the malls and strip malls. I love acne.org

I think this a great idea! Selling your products in stores would be a godsend. Your a great person with a great product, stay that way.

Agree 100% with Jennyband. It’s obviously a natural progression for your business to gain more customers and a larger market share and consequently more profit when you have such a great product. The idea of becoming bigger and being able to offer your products at an even cheaper price would benefit both the business and consumers.

As long as you stay true to the quality of your products and outstanding customer service I don’t see why anyone would have a problem with this.

P.S.

I love the fact that you mention other products and you don’t single out your products as being the only products on earth able to achieve some sort of results.

Hope it happens.. It is a great and orginal idea, not to mention totally out of the urge to help others.

I would be great! It would be (much) more helpful than pro-active and neutrogena!

You have to make money in order to provide services. Unfortunately nothing in this world is free no matter how much we may wish it. I think becoming big would be wonderful. The bigger you get the more you can offer. You just need to remember what got you there. As long as you continue providing outstanding customer service and products I say go for it. Integrity and success (or “money”) do not have to be mutually exclusive. You know who you are and as long as you adhere to your principles there should be no limit to what you can do. Good luck!

I think becoming too big could harm the integrity of the products being offered (i.e. Neutrogena) and the advice being given. A lot of good things come to businesses who value integrity over money and quality over quantity. Sometimes word of mouth is better than flashy advertisements. No one should want to become the next Wal-mart of skincare. Just some food for thought.

i am from australia as well, it was the first hit i got from simply typing in acne as a google search.

i have no qualms with buying things online, and personally prefer shopping this way.

saying that however i know it may the ease at which most people buy the ‘neutrogena, clean and clear ‘ etc or even the more expensive brands like clinique off the shelves, even if its not the ideal solution.

if your products remained gimmick free and the basis in which they were sold maintained integrity i can only see more people being helped from the growth of the business.

heres something i thought about…

if you loose control of the quality of your product the results will change for the consumer

ie. your products being formulated in other countries because it becomes cheaper to make it up there than to ship it from the states..

what i’m getting at is at some point the focus might become a venture of making money, when it started out with so much love and concern for the results for the individual. thats what makes acne.org so wonderful, its real people helping each other (without sounding like a wet blanket)

just my two cents

I personally think that it would be great if Acne.org became THE place to go to for anything acne-related. There’s so much being offered here (and that could be offered) that would help thousands of people all over the world– information on the latest treatments, medicines, etc. as well as a message board where anyone can ask any questions that are pressing on their mind. And, last but not least, if acne.org became a big phenomenon, then more people would hear about the Regimen, and you would be that much closer to reaching your mission: to end acne as we know it today.

On that note, it would also be beneficial because acne.org products would be more readily available around the world. There could be more sponsors, and more money would be brought in that could be invested in anything from designing/improving products to revamping the website to advertisements.

Overall, it’s a great idea! I support it 110%!

This site was the second one that came up when Googling, first acne.org.au as I’m an Australian. So, the site is easily found. As others have said, with all the natural ways the site will promote itself and continue to grow which can only be a good thing.

I really dont know how it hasn’t got huge!

I guess when you say huge you are perhaps basing it on the amount of bottles etc you are selling! People prefer to buy of the shelf! Simple as! Also if your not from the USA I would much rather buy alternatibve BP solutions! In many countries BP does not require prescriptions so its quite accessible!
If you want to make it worldwide you need to introduce to shops!

Also, the name ‘acne.org’ although to the point is a bit harsh considering people with acne dont like talking about it so may be reluctant to tell their friends. Also people may choose not to visit the site as dont want to be seen visiting an acne care page! eg – if im at work the system administrator can see the pages i view. Perhaps try to build up the name ‘Daniel Kern’ to avoid this!

I think if would be easily marketed! A Nice package with the 3 main ingredients! You could sell individually when they took off!

I think if you dont do someone else will! This post has been here a year and the website for several so think someone who is innovative enough will rob your idea if you dont hurry! If not one of the big companies will! THE main advantage you have is the community and this website over anyone else! Maybe some harsh truths there but I guess thats what you are looking for!

Being big is not bad, but beeing to comercial doesnt keep the value ery high and everyone is gonna try to find your mistakes in anything you do to eat you up. So yes, get people know about you from how the regimen works, but make it in a mannes that doesnt make peeple feel that acne.org is everywhere, dont oversaturate the market with this name. Beter availability of products in more countries is a good thing.

Respectfuly,

It would be great if acne.org was big enough so that I could simply walk into the nearby Target and pick up a bottle of treatment, an entire kit, AHA, etc. That would be great because sometimes I’m not really paying attention and all of a sudden I am out of something and the only way to resupply is off the internet.

Proactive has dispensing machines in malls now, and I think acne. org needs to get something like that. Maybe not, but a more convenient way to buy the product would be much appreciated.
