Quick point -- in adhering to site rules and supporting this site, Hunt4Gold has upgraded to Charter Member (waiting for icon to reflect this) and is in process of becoming a supporting vendor.
Our products will be sold through our web site's store. The web site will be launched in 2-3 weeks and includes information about the new fluid bed designs, shopping, videos and photos of people operating sluices in field (and our recirculating water system we use to test design concepts), overview of our approach to designing and fabrication, FAQ, blog, etc. - normal site content. Phase one will be extensive Internet marketing, including social media marketing (have someone who specializes in this area) using Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, forums, blogs, etc. Phase two will include identifying international distribution sites (prospecting companies) in countries like Australia and Europe. Other typical marketing approaches will be used, like writing articles, blogs, etc. We will also be looking into trade shows.
Fabrication is being handled by a large plastic fabrication facility here in Denver. Products will be thermoformed in two pieces and bonded together to provide consistent and accurate products, which will enhance operation performance. A multi-spindled drill rig is used to drill holes for grizzlies - this is critical to maintaining precise spacing of grizzlies and clearing of material over grizzlies and across transport deck above capture chamber. Hand drilling will not provide this. Warehousing, packaging, shipping, and R&D will take place at our new office/shop in Littleton, CO.
