Wow! Things are CRAZY at www.traumafx.com

The word is getting out! Products at www.traumafx.com are keeping the shipping companies (and me) REALLY busy!

My motivation for starting TraumaFX was to offer high quality, reasonably priced products - and it's working!
I was frustrated by all the "big name" makeup companies selling the same products at an enormous markup so I began my own line. Granted, I still have a long way to go and there are so many products I have to put in my online store, but I'm getting there. I understand that it's a narrow "niche" of a market and in order to make any kind of a profit, you've got to increase the prices to cover all your costs, but I can't morally justify gouging the people that may someday save your life (EMS, etc.). It just isn't right. So, I'll make a few dollars here and there and pray that I'm helping in whatever small way I can.

Volunteer EMS or Fire companies just don't have the budget for expensive training supplies. They're barely keeping up with purchasing desperately needed equipment.

Indy films are being done by extremely talented individuals who don't have allot of money to spend on special effects makeup. It's all they can do to scrape by just to make the film. Marketing takes up so much of their money and time.

So, perhaps I'll never get rich from my products, but I love what I do and can only hope that I've provided an inexpensive, but high-quality professional product that they can use.

My thanks for the success goes out to all the big name, Hollywood special effects artists who have helped me tremendously - and you all know who are. I am truly humbled by your unselfishness in sharing your secrets, formulas and techniques. But even more, your friendship is more valuable to me than you could imagine.

Okay - enough said. Now it's off to ship more items - Texas and Oregon are on the list today.
