There are many important factors to take into consideration when designing a product. You don’t just build something, put it in a box and expect it to go on the shelf or otherwise immediately.
How a product is designed can make or break its success in sales or introduction to the market through licensing.
Some of the things one must consider are:
- Material Sourcing
- BOM (Bill of Materials)
- Pricing & Cost Analysis
- Packaging & Shipping
- Sales & Marketing
- Legal Services
- Licensing
- Patent Reform
- Engineering Services
- Small Manufacturing
- Prototyping & Samples
- Product Testing
- Warranty
- Industry & Product Cycles
- Website Development
- Education
- Public Resources
- Industry Organizations
- Vendor Relations
- International Business Development
