Go history on your economics prof...
How about the guy who had the sense to add glue to wood shavings to make particle board - that crap is in everything...jingle - Hey, it's cheaper than oak!
or consider, the dairy farmer who decided he'd make plantable pots out of cow crap... Jingle: the poo pot! It's a pot from poo and it's good for you so plant your petunias in the poo pot!
I think you could sell fish guts to fisherman for chumming but it would be dirty work to get the product to market...jingle (jaws theme in the background) You're going to need a bigger boat when you chum with ____________'s fish magnet!
This is a cool question and you should really appreciate your econ teach for forcing you to think outside the box.
Good luck and whatever you decide to turn in - be creative. |

Vegetables? lol, your crazy.
A Holiday Package to Iraq. That would be hard to sell!
I'm not sure how you would market that?
Even a Holiday Package to North Korea, or Afghanistan would be hard to sell, and maybe you could use either one of those because you might be able to come up with a better commercial for one of them? |

To me, a hard to sell product is one that would relate to a very specialized industry....one that requires you target a specific market. Perhaps a specific type of running shoe, or clothing item? |

Jock itch or yeast infection cream. Who would really want to be the spokesperson for that? And who wants to be seen buying it, really? |

I would think used furniture, used clothing and used appliances. That is why they are often given away or sold at very cheap prices. |

I think you are on the right track with veggies. You can say that you want to market it to children so they get their parents to buy it for them. That WOULD be a tough sell. For example: "Sassy Spinach Snacks", "Broccoli Bricks" (could be chopped up broccoli with cheese in a brick formation).. I am just brainstorming ideas even though they may stink. But sounds like you have a fun project! GOOD LUCK! |

I always thought those umbrella hats were so dumb looking but they still might be practical and marketable. |

I'm going to give you something that is actually EASY to sell. It is the only thing I know that has a 900% market. For every one I raise, there are 9 people waiting in line to buy it. That would be meat goats.
However try selling a meat goat to your "average American white person." Not gonna happen. You could do a very funny commercial featuring a Normal Rockwell type family.
Goat meat has more iron than beef. It has less fat than SKINLESS breast of chicken.
White folks generally view goats as dirty, stinking animals that live on garbage.
If you don't like the idea of trying to sell goat meat, you could always use SPAM (the canned meat stuff, not computer junk mail).
