: Episode 555 – Pure Vitamin Co-Founder Andy Schreiber joins Vinnie Tortorich to discuss the formation of Pure Vitamin Club and kid-friendly vitamins on this Wednesday edition of the Celebrity Trainer podcast.
STARTING PVC
- Nobody thought this company would work
- Both were warned that this would be a failure
- Vinnie went to bank to start check book for company at bank
- More recently, the woman who helped him saw him at the bank and said hi
- Asked “How did you do with that vitamin company” with a head tilt and a furrowed brow
- She was shocked that it was successful
- She had seen too many of these things fail, but not this one!
- She was shocked that it was successful
- Now look! Healthy, affordable, and successful vitamins
- PVC is great because it is not white-labeled
- No already established product formula in PVC, all brand new unlike every other vitamin company
ARE KID-FRIENDLY VITAMINS ON THE WAY FOR PVC?
- For kids over 8, our PVC vitamins out currently do the trick
- We do not see a <8 vitamin coming in the near future
- The FDA (and thus we don’t) does not recommend this type of vitamin for little kids
- We don’t think there WOULD be a problem for a 7 year old, but kids are more sensitive and that is a judgement call of the parents
- We will not claim that our vitamin is appropriate for 6 & younger
- There is not, unfortunately, a kids’ vitamin that Vinnie and Andy would recommend
- A lot of kid vitamins include sugar or other added fillers
- Issue with gummy vitamins is that you are teaching your kid that something sweet is something good
