How many cows you milking Snomad? I grew up on Dairy Farms, just curious, one thing I've noticed in the business I am in at my day job is that I tend to buy from suppliers that are consistently visiting me trying to get sales or guys that will deliver on short notice.
I guess what I'm trying to say is I would work on the business that you frequent as far as selling to retail and if you have restaurants in your area I would try to get your syrup in the restaurant managers hands or maybe the chefs, often they may not even have real maple or they may have a supplier that's not reliable.
The squeaky wheel gets the grease and I think it applies to marketing too, also a nice flyer would be helpful, you have to spend money to make money.
Also as a rule I never try to undercut my competition, I have my prices and it's often higher or on par with the people around me.
