One of my employees sent me a link this week that I thought was hilarious.
This guy makes and sells “origami boulders”. It’s really just a crumpled up piece of paper, but he charges $10 for one. For $15 he’ll write a haiku on the sheet of paper before he crumples it. For $29 you get a nice bamboo display stand included.
Is it a successful business? I don’t know, but it’s a brilliant product.
It reminds me of the Pet Rock craze. It’s really IS possible to take something really mundane like a rock or a wadded up piece of paper and through the magic of marketing and copywriting, create a legitimate, valuable, sellable product. I personally wouldn’t sell useless stuff to people, but it’s an interesting sociological experiment if nothing else.
Like I always say…God bless the internet!!
