This May Be Your Last Chance To Make A Killing Buying And Owning Plastic Injection Molds
- Learn Where And How To Buy Them For Pennies On The Dollar
Please accompany me through
a
step-by-step system for exploring a new business opportunity in the
plastic injection molding field.
An
injection mold is the tool that is used to make a plastic molded part.
Look around your home and you'll see many items made from this process.
For example your mop bucket, kids plastic toys, your phone ext.
I am
learning a great deal along the way and I am certain that through
contacts I make and through my research, I will uncover several
very lucrative money-making opportunities. And I want you to do the
same.
The purpose of these recordings are to provide proof that
this can be done. It's to show you evidence of the immense opportunities
awaiting for you in injection mold shops throughout the US and the world.
The names and contact numbers have been removed from
these recordings. If you want to explore any of these opportunities
further, please
e-mail me In the subject line,
write in all caps "INJECTION MOLD DETAILS"
Here’s the background:
I sent a simple one page lead-generating letter to 300 injection molders
in the United States inquiring about obsolete molds that
injection mold businesses no longer use for one of many reasons.
Any old letter will not work because I had tested this
before and had no response. You must know what to say in the letter to
get them to call you back.
The end of the
letter requested that they call me to discuss the details of any
available molds. My purpose was to determine if the available molds may
be a hidden asset that I could purchase and put back into use.
The
letters are all sent out online. I never folded any paper, licked a
stamp or addresses any envelope. The sending of this letter is 100%
automated and can be sent from anywhere in the world.
The first five-minutes of this recording contains just
some of the responses to my letter of inquiry where my assistant, Sarah,
obtained the person’s name and telephone number so that I could return
their calls.
Subsequent audio clips on this recording are my actual
conversations with these injection molders and are detailed below as
Case Studies
You will hear what the injection molder has available and
how I ask important and leading questions in an attempt to determine if
the mold would be a good business opportunity for being put back into
use. Also, please take note of how I continue to probe these business
owners about other molds that may possess that could be made available.
You will be surprised when you hear these people start to
remember molds for products that they would not have thought of if I had
not continued to prod their memories!
Each of these Case Studies is a valuable example of how
to conduct a friendly, relaxed telephone call to get the information
you need to make the decision of whether or not to pursue
opportunities. Enjoy
Case Study: Roger
Roger states that he had one set of molds to create a
product for infants. It's a Baby bottle holder. The company that was selling the
finished product had gone out of businesses and so Roger now owns the
molds.
Listen as I inquire about patents, the details of the
actual mold, the product it made, and prices. I believe that I have
actually heard of the product so I tell Roger that I will be researching
it further and be back in touch with him.
I ask if Roger has any other molds that he may have
available for producing consumer products. Yes, indeed! Roger has a
mold for a product that holds a bride’s wedding gown train in place. It snaps
through the gown and is designed not to harm the gown. The person who
was selling the product had passed away and no one knows who owns the
rights to the product – another possibility!
Roger also has the molds to make all of the parts
comprising a veterinary syringe. He believes it had been patented. The
product had not been pursued after its initial test because there were
problems with the material used for one of the product’s components. I
asked myself, “Could this be corrected?” More research!
Case Study: Boyd
This is a fun and interesting conversation that I know
you will enjoy.
Boyd originally responded to my letter wanting to know if
I was interested in buying an actual molding machine. I explain how I
am looking for molds that are no longer being used in order to put them
back into service.
I ask him to think back to any molds that he may have in
his possession that produced good products.
Affirmative! When he thinks about it, Boyd remembers
that he has all of the molds necessary to create parts for expensive
bird cages (feeders, connecter pins, etc.). The company is no longer
making these bird cages, but perhaps a contact at that company could
provide information that I need.
You will hear me ask again about the kinds of molds that
I may be interested in.
Boyd is delighted when he remembers that he still has the
molds that he used to make millions of pogs slammers. Perhaps you
remember that pog craze were kids all over the country were buying these
things. Hundreds of millions of these were sold only less than ten years
ago.
We go into great detail discussing the types of pog
slammers that Boyd made, which were “specialty” slammers with beautiful
designs and a unique manufacturing process. Boyd told of how he had
made millions of them. One day the bottom dropped out of the market and no
one wanted pogs or slammers anymore.
Boyd has everything needed to start making pog slammers
immediately but there is no longer a market. I inquire about his
manufacturing costs as well as the necessary materials. Could there be
another product that could be made using Boyd’s pog molds? Perhaps!
Could the molds be used to promote pogs to another country?
Then Boyd remembered that he is associated with an
optometrist. Together, Boyd and the optometrist made special product to
help people place their contact lenses in to their eyes. This is a
problem for many people who use contacts. We discuss the history of the
product. We review the components of the
product, the cost of product, and its retail price. This product enjoyed
huge mark ups and Boyd claims this optometrist would love to do
something with me. Thousands have been sold already. What could be done
with this proven product for Contact wearers?
All of this talk jogs Boyd’s memory and he recalls a
product he invented and intended to sell to elementary schools to assist
children in learning the alphabet, words, and arithmetic. Years
ago, Boyd
had sent sales letter to all of the elementary schools in California.
He describes the products he manufactured in great detailed. He has all
of the machinery and molds as well as fifty thousand of dollars worth of
products ready to be shipped – if someone would buy them. He tells me
the inventory is just sitting in his shop today. Most
of it already packages and ready to sell.
Could I get this inventory at no cost and sell it for a
profit?
Could I make $10,000 to $20,000 on this deal? Perhaps.
Boyd agrees to send me a sample of this product right
away.
Then he remembers yet another product – a spinner that
goes on model airplanes for electric starting. Boyd manufactured 2-inch
spinners because it is the most popular and sells the highest volume.
Boyd says that his spinners sell for much less than his competitors.
After we say our goodbyes, Boyd calls back because he
remembered a product that holds golf clubs in the bag. He wasn’t
currently making any because he didn’t have the proper marketing to sell
more (and he had a sales rep sell thousands of them). He has five
thousand sets sitting at his plant, waiting to be sold. He had the
packaging done, the promotional flyers too. We talk about its wholesale
price. Boyd’s product was far less expensive than his competitors and he boasts
that his product is universal to virtually any type of golf bag. He already made
up his mind to send me a product sample. How much effort would it take
to sell this lot? Do you think Boyd would be open to a deal? In part
three you'll hear how to get into a deal like this without any front
money. You'll also learn how to maintain complete control of the
product.
Case Study: Louis
Louis states that it’s difficult for him to stay
competitive. His job is to make the tools and he is not a salesman. He
wants me to come to his shop to see what he has that I might be
interested in. I encourage him to talk with me on the phone first about
available molds.
He quickly runs through a short list of molds that he has
developed products for in the past, such as light fixture parts, a
rubber shooting gun, and drinking glasses.
We talk in more detail about the rubber shooting gun and
how he came up with the idea for it. It is a toy gun that you can put
up to fifteen rubber bands on that you shoot. He could sell his plastic
ones for cheaper than the wooden ones on the market. I find this
interesting.
In the same mold, he has cavities to make what he calls
“brown mirrors.” These are stand-up mirrors for ladies and he made them
in two sizes.
Louis mentions that he not only made one of the first
Barbie dolls but that he used to make Hot Wheels cars but doesn’t have
any molds any more. We talk of history of these great little cars and
both with that he still had the molds for them!
He goes on to describe a square cake tray he invented and
produced a few of them that makes the serving and transporting of square
cakes easier and less prone to ruining the delicate pastry. We discuss
what it looks like and how it is used.
Louis also produced nose inhaler parts for a product that
you put an oil or essence into it that smells pleasant, such as
lavender. If you are in a confined place, such as an airliner, and
there is suddenly an unpleasant odor, you can inhale your pleasant
lavender essence instead.
It’s an ingenious idea that Louis must have come up with
when he was in such a situation! Louis explains that this product is
not meant for the pharmaceutical market but rather would be something
that would do well in a novelty store. He does own the tooling for it.
He also has a vial mold that produced vials for taking
blood tests. He had produced millions of vials for a client in previous
years. However, the vial is for eight milliliters of blood and new
blood testing machines now only require a drop of blood.
Louis promised to send me samples of any products that he
still has that we had discussed.
Case Study: Carol and Robert
Carol’s mission was to determine what I wanted. You will
hear me explain the purpose of my letter.
Satisfied with my answers, she refers me to Robert.
Robert begins to explain why he believes his company was
never too successful. First of all, they couldn’t do the molding and
the marketing both nor did they have an “entre” to large companies such
as Home Depot and Ace Hardware. He was happy to hear that I did have
connections to these retail outlets as well as several other
distribution companies.
Robert has a mold for a product that patched gypsum
walls. We discuss the details of the mold.
He was very proud of the bacon cooking tray that he developed
for use in any microwave oven. They only marketed it over their web site
so they only sold about 400 units. Robert and Carol had begun the patent
process, but it was never completed due to financial constraints.
Robert also told me about a soap dish and a sun visor
that he had developed and produced.
Without marketing time or expertise, their small company
relied solely on their Web site to sell their products. However,
they never were able to direct much traffic to their site and thus sold
few products. Do you see any opportunity in these molds? Do you
understand how important the ability to market is? Onward.
Case Study: David
The mold that David had available was for an oxygen
sensor unit that was used in hospitals. After the products were molded,
they were sent to the company who owned the product and was fitted with
the medical telemetry necessary.
David ran the molds for almost five years. Although it
appears that this was a successful product, the company who owned the
product went out of business and now this fine mold is sitting in
David’s shop.
David owns the mold and he is unsure if the company who
owned the product ever patented it. How many letter do you need to send
out to find a product with the tolling ready to go? I only sent out 300
letter when I did this test. How many letters would it take for you?
With my letter and some direction from me, I can have your phone ringing
off the hook with injection molders calling you.

From Plastic Injection Mold Owners. Part Two
Case Study: Felix
Like most of the people who received my lead-generation
letter, Felix was extremely interested in what my real intent was.
After I gave him my full explanation, he told me that he
currently owns two molds that produced milk crates. One mold would hold
sixteen quarts or four one gallon jugs and the other mold would hold
twenty-four quarts or six one gallon jugs. Felix explained that he had
sold more of the twenty-four quart crates.
He had previously had a customer who bought tens of
thousands of these milk crates but that the customer eventually found another
supplier.
Felix is more interested in selling his molds because of
the large amount of warehouse space necessary to house the milk crates.
He currently produces battery cases which take up most of his floor
space.
He will check to see if he has any other molds that fit
my criteria and will call me back.
I was surprised to hear that Felix thought that I was in
the business of buying molds and then selling them to third-world
countries. I had never thought of that!
Case Study: Gary
After I explain the purpose of my inquiry and ask if Gary
has any molds that might interest me, he states that he simply wanted to
know what I was looking for. He really didn’t think that he had
anything that would interest me but would think about it and get back to
me if he had any ideas.
Case Study: Dick
Dick is curious about the purpose of my letter. Like
Gary, he doesn’t think he has anything I’d be interested in. He is also
reluctant to talk about any of the molds that are in his shop. The
calls ends quickly.
Case
Study: Mr. X
This gentleman produced millions upon millions of pipe
risers to connect pipes for sprinkler heads and similar types of piping
products.
He currently has more than a half million pieces sitting
in his warehouse. He explained that he lost his customer after he
fulfilled an order and there was a disagreement about the price –
the customer wanted a bulk discount on this small order. He's now
sitting on 500,000 units of a product that was once sold in to Home
Depot. Note" Home Depot currently sells this exact product for .25 cents
each.
As we discussed the history of this mold, I found that he
had bought the mold and made modifications to it. He went into detail
about the mold itself, the products produced, the prices, and who the
end customers were. I found his pipe risers at Home Depot web
site.
He promised to send me some samples of each piece that he produced. What
would you do if you were him. In part three, you'll learn how to gain
control of that inventory without any upfront cost. We'll also show you
have to buy time to market and sell the inventory. You'll have
everything shipped from his location and you'll not have to do a thing.
Case Study: Sandy
This is a case study that I know you’ll be interested in
because it can be visualized very easily.
Sandy has three molds that produce one product. The
product itself holds a standard paper towel roll in the middle and has space
for cleaning supplies on its periphery. It also has a self-contained
water bucket. This product was specifically designed for car
enthusiasts who go to auto conventions or racing runs and want to carry
clean-up supplies to keep the car looking great – but they don’t want
the clean-up supplies to take up a lot of space. This product is
perfect because it is eight inches square!
Sandy hasn’t made the product in several years, although
she is quite proud of it. She explains that this product does not fit
with their other line of products. Further, their marketing company
never properly marketed or even packaged it properly.
She owns the patent on the product and it is up to date.
As Sandy explains the components of the product and how
they all fit together, I could visualize what a great little product
this could be if marketed correctly. I will certainly think about this
one! I only sent out 300 letter when I did this test.
How many letters would it take for you? With my letter and some
direction from me, I can have your phone ringing off the hook with
injection molders calling you.
Part Three
More Case Studied
From Plastic Injection Mold Owners. Part Two
Case Study:
Ron
Here’s a great call
that I got from a fellow named Ron who owns and operates an injection
mold company in California. This might be one of the most interesting
calls that I received from injection molders since I sent out my
letter of inquiry.
You’ll hear me
explain that I am interested in molds for consumer products that may
not be being used anymore but could possibly be put back into use.
Well, Ron had lots of
information for me! He first told me about all different types of toy
molds that he has and wouldn’t mind parting with. Some of the toys we
discussed were:
-
An A-Team “Doll House”
-
A water blaster gun
-
A children’s water slide similar to the popular Slip and Slide toy.
This was a very popular toy in the 1980’s. You will hear Ron tell
me the history of the mold and its production. This mold has been
idle for about 12 years.
-
A magnetic fuel monitor for automobiles
-
A product called the “P Trap” which fits into drains to catch small
items such as rings so that they can be easily retrieved.
The product that
sparked my interest the most was the Razor ***. This is a magnetic
razor sharpener that has been in production more than ten years. Ron
had produced them for many retail stores including The Shaper Image
and Home Shopping Club.
The inventor of the
product owns the patent on the mold but has since turned the handling
of the product over to his daughter. I had actually owned a Razor
**** several years ago and still think that it’s a great product with
lots of possibilities.
I was able to obtain
some contact information from Ron so that I could make further
inquiries about obtaining the rights to market the Razor **** product
and called one of the contacts given to me by Ron.
As it happens, I had
called the company that is the exclusive distributor of the product
and produces all of its marketing material. I spoke with a gentleman
named Jim. You will hear Jim tell me his company’s history and the
history of this product.
I explained that I
wanted the rights to sell the product. Although the inventor and his
daughter aren’t doing much with the product, Jim thought my idea was
great because it is a well-designed, unique product with tons of
possibilities.
Jim has all of the
marketing material ever produced for the Razor*** and said that it
would be at my disposal should I obtain the rights to sell the
product! Additionally, Jim stated that he would be willing to work
with me to sell the Razor **** and would facilitate communications
with the product’s inventor.
Jim was going to call
the inventor’s daughter to discuss the possibility of me obtaining
rights to market the product. It’s sounding very promising and I hope
I have good news for you soon! These is a lot of meat in this call.
The most important lesson you can understand is how to pick a winning
product. This Razor product had been proven successful in the past.
Has a huge market with unlimited demand. Getting exclusive right to it
and having the use of past promotional materials could make this a
real winner. Stay tuned. Go
